Same cast, getting very tired at this point.

Well, we had done all the parks at this point and now it was time to do some things we missed, as well as do some things again we loved!

We started out with MK. Mom was still hurt that we didn't go on small world, we made her wait some more though :p

We headed straight for tommorowland, fastpassed on space mountain(didnt really need to) and hit buzz lightyear. Mom was hesitant about going on this, but we ALL went and had a blast! (130,000 points for me)

Everyone agreed that space mountain seemed watered down. It was slow, seemed very lit up(normally pitch black).
After that i conned everyone onto carosel of progress, they grumbled when they found out what it was, but in the end they couldn't stop singing the song!!

Alas, it couldn't wait any longer. To small world we go. We went up the exit ramp as mom was in a wheel chair and everyone seemed to enjoy it(cept for me, that song drives me silly!)
I got fast passes for splash and everyone made their way to jungle cruise. I have to say i love the enhancements that have been made! Lauren got the surprise of a lifetime by getting to steer the boat!
(i'm gonna start having her pick my lotto tickets as she seems soooo lucky!)
We headed back to splash and encountered a rude cm handling the boat entry. He made us wait about three boatloads while others went ahead of us for no reason!
The ride was a blast and we got a classic photo of us all in the boat
:p
-mini rant-
after we got off the boat, the rapper Lil Bowwow and his lady friend were allowed to come up the exit ramp and get in all by themselves. It seemed wrong that others who waited an hour had to wait that much longer while they held everyone back and put them in the boat. I'm sorry, he could have gone ingocnito so as not to be recognized and ridden like everyone else.
Heck, the guy from the Disney mars movie(the silly one where he farts into the airtank he shares with another astronaut) was there and had a wig on and some regular clothing and he seemed to be enjoying it with his family while being treated like a regular person.
-end rant-

At this point it was getting close to our ps at the coral reef in epcot. We took the monorail over(complete with an encounter with the infamously rude monorail cm that everyone seems to encounter), and made it just in time for our seating. The waiter seated the four kids at a table next to the aquarium while the adults were in a booth next to them.
The food was good, but overpriced. I'm sorry but 42 dollars for lobster is extreme when they count the weight of the shell :rolleyes:
Afterwards we went to honey i shrunk the audience, and the kids absolutely freaked out over the mice!! Great show as always :)
After a bit of shopping, i took mom back and clark's family stayed behind to do body wars, mexico ride and some other things.
I took clark and cathy over to pleasure island, and got a kungaloosh. I love my little monkey head mug!!! btw be prepared those drinks they serve in the monkeys are strong!!
We sampled all the clubs, and i was shocked to find the wildhorse saloon is GONE FOREVER!! It has been replaced by a top 40 club, filled to the brim with teenagers.
We did the new years celebration at midnight and promptly went back to sleep it off :)


last day to come :(
 
WOW I didnt know Wild Horse was closed. I guess I'll never get to go there then. :(
 
I wonder why you had to wait for 3 boats at Splash Mountain....That's not very nice...:( .....Coral Reef *does* sound overpriced....Geez...Glad you liked the Kungaloosh...I plan to get one of the monkey heads next time I go to PI...Thanks for posting!

Beth :p

Only 12 more days!!:smooth:
 

Thank you for posting! I love to read reports where people have fun:) One more thing to add to my list " get a kungaloosh);)
