Saturday 13th January 07
I was up around 6.30am and I had a quick shower before waking everyone else up.
This morning we wanted to get to DTD early for check-in at Virgin that was starting at 8.30am. We got there around 8am and all the Virgin staff were there (hurrah !!) BUT they couldnt get the door to their office opened. About ½ hour later the WDW Locksmith arrived and within 10 minutes check-in started. Thankfully we were near the front of the line and by 8.50am we were back in the car heading for Animal Kingdom.
We got a FP for Expedition Everest and also waited in line to ride it. We had breakfast in Harambe of fruit, danishes and apple turnovers. After brekkie we had some photos taken with Stitch and then our FP time came around, so we rode EE one last time.
As we only came to AK for EE, we then left for Epcot (we always finish our holiday there). We got a FP for Soarin and we rode Mission:Space. We then had a walk around World Showcase where we had lunch in the American Adventure. I wasnt in the mood for burgers or chicken strips, so I had my very first funnel cake with ice-cream, it was yummy and Ill definitely have another one of those on my next trip.
We rode Soarin and had one final look in Mouse Gear and then it was time to say goodbye to WDW and we left for Orlando International.
We got rid of the car and had some tea in the food court and we bought yet more T-Shirts and other bits from Ron Jons.
The plane left on time, and the journey was uneventful, the films werent that good as was the food. I think I slept for about 3 hours (most unusual for me) and we arrived home early. In my haste to get off the plane I left my legendary pink cowboy hat onboard (never mind Ill buy another one next time). We had no huge wait for the cases to come off the plane and we rang for our car to meet us. I think we got in our car around 7.30am and we were home for 9am and in bed by 9.15am.
Summary
This was the BEST HOLIDAY EVER, we did so many great things like celebrating birthdays, going for breakfast with Lilo & Stitch, staying the night at the Contemporary and the best part ever ~ the Cruise.
We met some lovely people, and I really hope that we get the chance to meet again.
The ONLY downside to this holiday was that I suffered the worst jet-lag ever, it took me about 10 days to get back to normal, when Im usually fine within 2 or 3 days.
Thank you for taking the time to read my trip reports, it was great reliving it all again while typing it out. If you have any questions ~ then please just ask.
Thanks again
