Wendy (me) 46 but feels 21 in mind - Disney mad, the planner
John (DH) 46 - getting almost at Disney mad as me
Glen (DS) 14 - our lovely little boy one minute, stroppy teenager the next and mature young man occasionally
Ashley (DS) 11 - the loud one! A lot of this holiday has been based around his needs with him being very special.
Friday 26th October 2007
MK today for our last full day. We called in the photo shop to have all our photo pass pictures put onto one card, then straight to Thunder Mountain as it had been closed all holiday and had just re-opened on Wednesday of this week. We got a fast pass but it was a 1 ½ hour wait. Just as we left there Woody and Jessie came out for a photo so we were first in the queue.
We found Captain Hook and Mr. Smee.
It eventually came time to make our way to Thunder Mountain.
Made sure we saw Jack Sparrow for the second time, but instead of watching him from close up we waited where we knew he ran off to and got some video of him running straight towards us. We did a few rides, had lunch at Peco Bills and watched the parade.
We were booked in Rose and Crown for dinner so we could hopefully see the fireworks from a good spot, but as we had no difficulty all week in seeing them from brilliant spots and we weren’t hungry we cancelled the ADR and re-booked for 12pm tomorrow (big mistake!!!) Did a bit of packing and said bye to Yuet - our turndown maid - she was thrilled with the Mousekeeping envelope with her tip in. We had a Monkey towel animal clinging to the lamp with a handwritten note from the housekeeping maid also saying thank you.
Yuet told me off for wasting my money on some little cuddly pirate Mickey’s instead of saving up to return in the future I promised not to spend anything unless I have to in future! We made our way back to Epcot as Village People were performing at Eat to the Beat. We walked passed the theatre as they were performing YMCA and joined the queue for the next show. Ashley asked for some chicken nuggets so Glen and I went to Liberty Inn to get some and a couple of coffees, by the time we rejoined the queue it had started to move into the theatre.
Found a place to view Illuminations for the last time, it was extra magic hours at Epcot on this particular night so we were able to cram a few last minute attractions in. Back at 11.30pm to finish off the packing and set the alarm for 7am to go to DTD for Virgin’s check in.

I know that feeling, stuff like that happens to me all the time.
