Today is our shopping day as we had seen the weather forecast and knew it was going to be cold. Boy was it cold it was freezing and windy. We all run to the minibus to get out of the cold. We arrive at the Florida Mall just in time for opening. The mall is all indoors which is great. We manage to buy our extra suitcase. We will remember next year that we will not need to take so many clothes as we have a washing machine in the villa.
Lisa buys some bits in the Old Navy store (which seemed a lot better last year). Kirsty cannot find the batman converses she is looking for and settles for vans with hippos on them. (since getting back we found the shop with the batman converses but they do not have any her size)
We have booked the Mama Melrose Fantasmic package for 3.30 so really should not be eating lunch but cannot resist the free samples in the food court and end up buying lunch after all.
We get the boat to MGM just in time for our reservation at Mama Melrose. We have not eaten here before and did not think it was as good as the Hollywood Brown Derby which we did the last time we did the package.
We get a photo with Mickey
After a long wait for Mark, Kirsty and Jack on Rock n Roller Coaster we run out of time for Megan to go on Tower of Terror and promise her we will come back tomorrow first thing.
We get a good seat and buy the kids the obligatory candy floss. The weather is now much milder and makes the show seem all that much better. As usual fantasmic is fantastic and makes me cry. This is Lisa's first time and she loved it too. I think this is the best show of all.
We are now all quite tired and are in two minds about walking back to the villa. Mark spots a boat and shouts out "if you don't want to walk, run!" We all run like crazy and just manage to catch a boat back to the beach club. Feeling pleased with ourselves we retire back to our villas for Lisa's now legendary Irish Coffee. Maurice has just the right action to whip the cream with the fork.
We are amazed to see fireworks from our balcony coming from EPCOT as it is now so late.
We are starting to feel sad as tomorrow is our last full day.
