We make our way to get a couple of fast passes for Soarin’ before going off to the Living Seas. Once again there is a long queue for Crush and Alan decides he doesn’t want to wait so we have a wander around before heading off to watch Honey I shrunk the Audience. We come out of there and after a drink and a wander around the butterfly garden after which we make our way back to Soarin’ this ride is so cool.

We come out of Soarin’ and decide to stop in the land and have a drink and a snack. We share a strawberry shortcake as it looks so big but I did notice that dh seemed to get more than his share of the strawberries (they were delicious) so I make a note that next time we are having one each.

We make our way over to world showcase determined that this holiday we will do it all. I can’t remember which way we went this time except that it included Germany (I really should have written this trippie after watching all the videos as I taped more than I photographed).

The heat is beginning to make us weary so we stop for one of those things I can’t remember the name of. I had ice cream and strawberries on mine and dh just had ice cream. We sat on the wall by Japan (I think it was) and I was halfway through when I suddenly realised that we were probably spoiling someone’s photo shot so I made dh move, I have to add we didn’t finish them as they were too big.

We decided to head off to Pop as time was getting on and we wanted a rest before doing the EMH at MGM.

I have to say I never really thought much of MGM the first time I went but this time I really loved it and even more so at night. We arrived about 8’ish but once again with the extra hours we found that the rides were limited therefore making the queues long. We went into one of the rides we had never done before One mans Dream and then into the Muppet Show which I don’t remember as being this good but each time we seen it we both enjoyed it.

There were two showings of Fantasmic this night and originally we were going to stop for the late one at 10:30 but dh was tired so we left the park about 10pm, got our usual drinks and went to bed about midnight (which was the norm for this holiday – no wonder we were always cream crackered).

Cazzie, your photos are amazing!

I totally agree about MGM - I do love the park anyway but always find the nights there are particularly atmospheric and special :thumbsup2
