OK, if you don't know the cast, refer back to Days 1 and 2 
Well I am blasting these out so I can start posting pics all over afterwards and write reviews for dining and probably forgetting a few things, plus since I am posting a on a few different boards the same report I need to leave out some details that incriminate myself lol
Well we start to all stir just after 6 am---I had forgotten but every morning we recieved our wake up call @ 7 right before we headed out the door (*so we were awake enough to listen* lol). We strolled over to the food court by 7:25 and grabbed a small breakfast. To back up and add: I had bought a pair of CROCS which I used to think were ugly but for the first time I didn't wake up on Day 2 with hurting feet.
We hopped were about to hop the bus to Epcot when the 3rd MK bus rolled through...DING DING--Let's ride THAT bus, get the monorail to TTC, transfer and head to Epcot--HAHA well we made it--AFTER Park opening (we WILL make an opening I swear).
I forgot my plans that I had printed up, written notes from all my planning guides etc) woops, but we'll make it, after all I had MEMORIZED this stuff (or did I?). It is much different when you ACTUALLY do it.
Anyway off through the turnstiles, and Snap Snap, Photopass pics then a dash into the park. Ugh, Trae is dragging me into Spaceship Earth. We run in as there is NOBODY there and ride this depressingly long (what seemed it) ride while knowing precious park time was fading. Out we come and run like mad to Test Track, NOTHING is going to stop me, excpet---More Photopass opportunites! YIKES! I kept the motto, characters later, rides now...Nope stop in to see them in Characters from Disney Classics.
Then off to Test Track, which still has a 5 minute wait (scratch head). Ride quickly (with a small protest from Trae who is 5 and still afraid of fast rides). I LOVED this ride, and decide it is a MUST to get back to later this trip.
Head over to Ellen (whom I LOVE) and see it s a 45 minute ride---ick. Sorry Ellen, I'll see you on channel 10.
Now to The Living Seas---Just for Turtle Talk--Not to be missed..the kids will LOVE IT! I had the biggest laugh of the trip during this show when a child was asked by Crush how he got to Disney--He answered " Virgin" *the airline* which set off Crush making faces and saying it over and over wondering how "Virgin brough him there". and the whole crowd laughing while the kids wondered what was so funny.
Off to Innoventions but decide to stop off for an early lunch before crowds hit. Off to Electric Umbrella. Well I had a burger, which I didn't enjoy at all. But it was lunch and we had ADR's for dinner @ CM's so it was ok Total for lunch :$23...Why? B/C we asked for bottled water which would have up'd the price by $10 but they gave us SINK WATER that tasted worse then a chlorinated swimming pool! ewww..line was too long and my mom didn't want to complain.
So off to Innoventions. Crowds were teeny, so we had the place almost to ourselves. We hung out and played for a bit before heading over to Soarin. Grabbed FP's and then ran up to The Circle of Life--Kids loved it. Downstairs we hung out for a bit then jumped on Soarin with the FP's. Can I just say this is the most BREATHTAKING ride. Nobody can do it justice with description. I adore this ride and wish I could live on it. We were in B1...WOOOHOO! Center front...So perfect.
Well by this point it was getting warm and we all had on long sleeves . This jump to 70 degrees killed us New Englanders lol. We headed into the World Showcase. Hitting each country but not stopping to do much but stroll through the shops rather quickly. The kids got their names in Japanese on Chef's hats which my niece wore for the rest of the day.
We got some pastries while in France and we did the most horrible thing of the trip--stopped at Impressions De France. I am SO sorry for anyone who likes this ride but it had me in sleep mode. It was pretty crowded, I saw some people asleep and it made me lazy , something about that HUGE screen and that music. Off from there finally stopping at a kidcot in China. The kids made masks while I bought necklaces for my nieces with their names in Chinese. We wanted to head into Reflections of China but it was packed over there and decided to skip it since we needed to head out within the hour. We stopped by Mexico and and jumped on the lil river ride there...Cheesy but ok, for a relaxing time down the river while watching guests dine in San Angel Inn.
As we made our way out to the Monorail we bid goodbye and headed for the Contemporary for a WONDERFUL buffet with Mickey and pals. I really enjoyed this. Our Waitress was wonderful and kept us going. The kids got their first taste of napkin twirling and laughed their butts off.
Dinner total would have been $107.
Headed back to MK for the bus to POR. NEED SLEEP haha
Next up MGM. Will they brave Tower Of Terror?!?
