Today is Terry and Sara's last full day before they fly back home so we let Sara chose what to do today. Sara would like to spend her last day in the sun at Blizzard Beach. We plan to get to the entrance at opening time to get the best area to sit in. However just as we get to the entrance Sara and Terry realise they have forgotten the Disney tickets. No one can be bothered to go back to the villa and they buy some more (which can be rufunded but there is never time to do so!)
Once in we found a lovely spot to with lots of sunbeds for us all. The weather is lovely for a water park. (The photos of Blizzard Beach are all on the underwater camera so cannot be put on the trippie) Mark and Maurice try Summit Plummit for the first time. They seem to recover. We take the ski ride up to Teamboat Springs and this is so good we all feel great and do it again. The second time seems to make me and Lisa feel a bit sick as we go down backwards.
It is now getting too hot and we leave around luncth time. We have a meal booked at Whispering Canyon Cafe at Wilderness Lodge for 7.20 for Terry and Sara's last night so just eat a lunch of french bread, cheese, biscuits, bagels, natchos and the the wonderful Cheetos etc in our room. As usual these lunches seem to go on forever and we feel really full.
Sara still wants to sit in the sun and takes Kirsty and Megan to the wonderful Saratoga quiet pool which is very close to our villas.
Mark, Maurice, Jack and Terry walk down to Downtown Disney and hire the little speed boats. Lisa and me sit on our balcony with some drinks (we have white Rushian cocktails and pina colada flavoured coolers) watching the boats on the lake adjacent to downtown disney. Lisa manages to video the boats very nicely without having to move from the balcony (and most importantly) not move from our after lunch (or even before dinner) drinks. This is a lovely way to spend an afternoon.
To get to Wilderness Lodge we just need to walk to Downtown Disney (five mins) and get the resort bus. but first we pose. This would be the view from our balcony if I had remembered to take a photo!
This restaurant is very loud and busy if you have not been. The servers are very friendly
There are lots to drink
JUST DON'T ASK FOR THE TOMATO KETCHUP!
We all have a great night
On the bus on the way back to Saratoga we sing Disney songs especially the heigh ho song starting off with a high pitch "In a mine" This is something which Sara started off and have been doing all holiday. I am sure the rest of the bus did not enjoy it as much as us!
