So after a wonderful morning riding the boat 
and roaming around DTD, 
we headed to TRex for lunch. DS was not sure how he felt about the place at first…and then he saw the dino at the entrance move and he wanted nothing to do with the place!! 
DS loves dinosaurs, but this was a bit scary for him. Baby boy wasn't phased at all, of course! After I explained that the moving dinos were like large versions of his toys at home, DS was ready to try it again. He was nervous for a while, but by the end of the meal he wanted to walk around and look at all of the different dinosaurs around the restaurant. DS had the mini corn dogs, fries, and a banana, and DH and I split a couple appetizers- nachos and a quesadilla. The food here was good, and the dinos were pretty neat, but I personally prefer the Rainforest Café we went to in Vegas (I assume the one in WDW is the same).
After lunch we made another stop at the fountains for DS to play, and then we got on the bus to head back to the resort for naps.
Our evening involved another non-park event: the Spirit of Aloha dinner at the POLY. The food here was wonderful; this was my husband’s favorite meal of the entire trip!!! And it doesn’t hurt that all the beer you can drink is included! Hahahahaha. 
We started off with some pineapple coconut bread, fresh pineapple, and a salad with a mango poppy seed dressing (all served family style on these large silver trays set on the table). Yummy!!! Then there were BBQ ribs, chicken, Polynesian rice, and fresh vegetables. The rice, ribs, and vegetables were wonderful!!! (FYI parents of picky eaters they did offer the people at the table next to us PB&J for their kids, who wouldn’t try the dinner). The dessert was a chocolate volcano that was good- very rich, though. And honestly, I preferred the rest of the meal to dessert. The show itself was really fun and entertaining, although I do think it is a bit long for families with young children. We actually left early, but it is something we would definitely do again!
After a nice relaxing day we headed to MK for a bit more fun!
We rode tomorrowland speedway several times (definitely one of DS’s favorites!), then headed to Fantasyland for It’s a Small World and the tea cups (which we also rode several times).
Then it was time for the Spectromagic parade, which DS had said he wanted to watch. Baby boy was sleeping in the stroller, so we decided to tempt fate and stay late for the parade. Probably not the best choice!
DS fell asleep about 2 minutes before the parade began and he would not wake up to watch it, and baby boy woke up just in time for it to be too late for us to get out of the park. Since the parade started and we were pretty much stuck there, we held baby boy so he could watch and videotaped the parade for DS to see later.

I don't really have any pics to post yet, though, because they were pretty much all done with the photo pass service. Here is one picture of DS waiting in line (in one of the matching T-shirts I made for each of us thanks to the DISigners)...
After visiting with the characters we took a stroll around EP taking in the sights- including the butterfly garden- 
haha. I'm glad you enjoy reading my TR- it is fun to write it, too!! And it always nice to know someone out there is reading! 
I really do appreciate it!!
So we had to wait in line at the park entrance until about 7:55. They let us in and we headed right for Hollywood & Vine. We checked in and got in to the restaurant very quickly! We had barely gotten settled when the first character arrived at our table- Leo (from the Little Einsteins). Leo was soon followed by June (also form the LE), and they were both wonderful with the boys! 
Luckily we had ponchos and a WONDERFUL rain cover for the stroller, so we kept going and the rain didnt dampen our spirits at all!! 
Guess well just have to try again next time! Haha.
(lesson learned for the next trip!), but I know everyone enjoyed the food AND the atmosphere. This is the second time weve eaten at 50s Prime Time and we will definitely do it again next time we visit DHS!!!! 
but it really wasnt bad! We waited less than 5 minutes for the bus and it was not uncomfortably crowded. All in all Id give the bus system a 
They rode the teacups and Its a small world
.and of course they HAD to ride TomorrowLand Speedway a couple of times as well!!!! 
OMG were these good! In fact...and the reason I decided to add this little post...I want one right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
but we have a beautiful day outside and an 8:05 ressie at the Crystal Palace, so I quickly get over it and we are off to MK!!!!!! 
) Then we all rode Peter Pan's flight and It's a small World.
loved, Loved, LOVED this!!!!! 
And I was actually able to get a pic to turn out (with no flash and a 3D show I had to get creative! haha).
The decor was very historical (no surprise there) and the atmoshphere was quite nice, but laid back. We really enjoyed this meal, although the food was not as good as some of the other places we enjoyed on our trip. The one thing I will warn parents of babies about with this place- there is NO changing table in the restroom here!!!!! Of course baby boy picked this time to have an extremely dirty diaper and it was a complete pain to change him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had to put my changing pad on the small counter area next to the sinks (which was not even as long as baby boy). It was not fun for me and I even got a couple of dirty looks from people coming in to use the restroom. 
I guess I'll have to re-do that! Sorry to any of you who are still out there reading along!!!
