Hope DH is feeling better today

There was a small boy at the table next to us, he had his pic taken with Piglet and as Piglet walked away I heard the boy ask his mum "why does Piglet have a zip up the back?" Mum looked very flustered trying to find an answer!

LOL! My youngest DD (7 at the time) asked that too ~ I think I said something about him having to take his stripey jumper off when he went to bed!

We had a great day at Epcot yesterday, we got there for opening and went straight to Soarin and grabbed fastpasses for it. We then went and rode Test Track and Mission Space, we then wandered back over to Soarin, had a drink and a cake in the food area there. We had a stroll round World Showcase, this is prob dh favourite place, he loves going in all the shops etc. We shared some nachos in Mexico and then headed back to AKL. Last night we went to DTD and went to the cinema to see the Ugly Truth which we both enjoyed.

Today we went to TL, got there at opening and grabbed some sunloungers. Had a few goes in Crush n gusher which was fun, have a sore backside now though, do the waterjets hurt anyone else on this ride?

Spent the rest of the morning playing in the wave pool, floating in the lazy river (dh thought it was hilariously funny to secretly let the air out of my inner tube so I slowly sunk!) and reading a book in the sun Feeling a bit frazzled from the sun now though, we have just come back to the room for a rest before headng to MK tonight for EMH

We went to AK yesterday, it was very, very hot there, we rode Everest several times, saw the Lion King show, watched the tigers and had lunch at RFC. We left after lunch as it was just so hot, went back to hotel and relaxed by pool. The meal at RFC was really nice, we shared a Volcano but didn't even manage half of it! Last night we did an Illuminations cruise with a couple of other families, it was fantastic, the view of the fireworks was superb

Today we were going to go to Hollywood Studios but we were tired and had a lie in instead, we got up at 10am and went to the Premium outlets, had a look round and bought a couple of bits. We then went to the Golden Corrall for the first time ever, we both thought it was much nicer than Ponderosa, they had a better vegetarian selection there as well.

And now I am relaxing with a drink in our room after spending a few hours by the pool

I have attached a few pics from our trip
