SATURDAY 14TH Feb

EPCOT

Happy Valentines Today we're off to Epcot & we arrive just as the park is opening and once again, we head over to Soarin and ride in the front row!!, we grab fast passes for TT and head over to Spaceship earth, DH and my dad take the girls on, whilst my Mum and I slap the sun cream on and wait for them all to re emerge! once they emerge I cover the girls in sun cream too, and we make our way over to TT and yes we make my Mum ride it again !! And 2nd time around she still doesn’t enjoy it , the parks are noticeably busier than the previous week, and DH & I are starting to feel the pressure of not fulfilling our 1st week to the max, anyway time for another iced drink for our DD’s as the morning was definately warming nicely , we then headover to the World Showcase, DH takes our DD's over to the Kim Possible station, we have to be in England for 11.30, so we walk over to Showcase Plaza and DH and our eldest DD soon disappear into a shop and come back with a Mickey love heart bag charm and a love heart rice crispy cake for me…..Ahhh thank you x x x

So once again we split from my Mum & Dad so that they can enjoy the peace and we can get going a bit quicker!!
We have a lovely time and the girls are happy skipping on their way to England for their mission , we arrive and get the phone and follow the clues given, we all had a wonderful time doing this and I really highly recommend this! And we will definitely do this again. Unfortunately I don't have any pics to share as I video'd this.

Girls meet a special couple as we enter France

We look at buying some lovely cakes whilst there but it was packed and also with eldest DD’s allergies we decide to give this a miss, so it’s another Mickey ice cream whilst we people watch! and then once the ice creams are finished we let the girls get wet in the fountains! , eldest DD is careful not to get too wet…but youngest is straight in, head first as ever and having a fab time along with quite a few other children, DH & I stand and watch the fun, they are loving it when an American lady approaches us and say’s how lovely it is that we let our DD’s play! Ahhhh thankyou so much

We once again meet up with my parents and head over to Cool club! Youngest DD decides to try the Beverly after some persuading
So before:

And after:

We now decide to leave, and we head over to bahama breeze for a meal, the place is really busy, but we wait no more than 5 mins and we’re shown to our table, as ever we order our Onion rings for starter's and they were delic...

we really enjoy our meal and then head out to Premium outlet, it would be rude not to seen as we are so close to it! So after full tummy’s and a bit of retail therapy we head back to Epcot for Illuminations, we watch from Morocco, right by one of the boat launches, we’d been sat waiting for a while before Illuminations and unfortunately for us, when the CM lets the rope drop 5 mins before the show starts, he let’s all the last minute crowds in to watch , anyway that aside the show as ever was great, and a great end to a great day

Tomorrow: Shopping

The 14th was a lovely sunny day

We also saw Illuminations that night but from a spot between Japan and the US.

Also agree the crowd levels were increasing rapidly.

Michelle, DD was sooo funny thinking all the drinks we're fine!, she see's so many people's trip reports and pic's on here, but luckily she hadn't seen the photo's of cool club

My DH is sooo thoughtful, always buying me gifts I did return the favour and buy him a cute Valentines Dopey

Enjoy Bahama Breeze next week

My girls and hubby have'nt a clue about Beverley,and i was looking forward to seeing there faces when trying it,but we won't be going to Epcot this holiday,so i will just have to keep it a secret a little longer .
