May 8th, Mothers' Day, our final day.
We woke up, loaded up, and rode over to the Pepper Market for breakfast. Perfect place for our family of picky eaters. Knucklehead will eat this or that, but never this and that. Bo Bo's happy with just eggs.
We decided to go to MGM, since we still hadn't seen the new Lights, Motors, Action! and then head home.
We were not alone in our decision. MGM that day, was the most crowded park we had seen all week. The beautiful weather must have brought everyone out. Well, that and Mothers' Day.
Knucklehead retrieved a couple of roses for his Mom at the entrance to MGM. We strolled up to the hat and looked at pins. Knucklehead and DW rode Star Tours, and then we just strolled around shopping. We made it over to Lights, Motors, Action! just as they were piling people in. For future reference, either get a fast pass, or get there early if you don't want to have to climb up up up and over in the Stadium. Also, you don't necessarily want to be right up front, unless you really enjoy loud firey explosions. We felt the heat from the final explosion at the top of the stands. Bo Bo was not impressed. Knucklehead was. This was his kind of thing. Herbie made a guest appearance and then had to split.
We reluctantly did the same. But first, we made one last visit to DTD. There was a toy at Once Upon a Toy that Knucklehead just had to have. Of course, when we got over there, Knucklehead had changed his mind. Bo Bo found a singing Wiggles microphone that he wouldn't let go of, so we bought it. Knucklehead "settled" for the Indiana Jones GI Joe. He deserved it. He was so well behaved this trip. There was only one melt down and that was that first day at Epcot. He never complained again about doing things that others wanted to do.
On the drive home we heard "Quack Quack Quack Quack C*ck-a-Doodle," and "Wake Up Jeff" about a thousand times. I almost threw it out at the South Carolina Welcome Center, but DW distracted me. She came around from the back of the van and said, "Guess what."
"Nooo."
"Yep, the tags gone."
"Oh well."
