I woke up at 5:30am because there was a crying baby next door thankfully I was able to fall back asleep for a bit. I finally had to wake up Roger and Ash they would have slept until noon if I would have let them. Roger went up to the lounge and grabbed some breakfast thankfully he was nice enough to bring enough for everyone. Over breakfast we decided to go to MGM and we were going to drive ourselves....I try not to take the buses unless I have to.

MGM was pretty full but we still ended up getting our annual family picture taken in front of the big hat...my hair was frizzy because I forgot to put my Anti humectant in OK enough hair woes. The first thing we decided to do was Sounds Dangerous, it's been a couple of years since we've done this attraction it's OK not something I would do every trip but it's 7 minutes of dark coolness. After this we looked at our watch and it was time for our PS at Sci Fi. Lunch was good and we love the cheesy movie clips, this time we had a really good waiter who wasn't rushing us at all. After lunch we went to see the Indiana Jones Stunt show.....In all our trips this is the one show we had never seen ......it wasn't my thing but Roger and Ashlynne really enjoyed the stunts and we got some good pictures. Once the show was over I was really HOT so I suggested we go back and take a swim and rest a bit thankfully I didn't have to do to much arm twisting.

We headed to the Volcano Pool the water slide was a lot of fun. I went down it several times once I had my fill of swimming I headed over to the bar Roger soon followed and we had a few yummy tropical drinks. Over drinks Roger and I decided that we should rent some water mice. Roger and Ashlynne had their own boat and I was all by myself..... we had an awesome time but the hour went by much to quickly. When we returned our boats Ashlynne got a huge Pirates of the Caribbean poster. I got quite embarrased when Ashlynne decided to tell the CM's that her mom thought Capt. Jack Sparrow was hot:eek: Sometimes I wish my daughter wasn't so outgoing;)

We went back to the hotel room and changed clothes then we all went up to the lounge. We got up there right at 5 and there wasn't much of a line......I can't remember what they served but they always had a nice cheese and fruit platter and uncrustables and that is usually what I ate. All of the sudden we looked outside and it was pouring down rain, we tried to wait it out awhile but we ended up putting on the ponchos and we headed for Disney Quest and I pretty much think everyone else decided the same thing. The place was crowded. As soon as I got in I did Cyber Space Mountain (cool ride) then Ashlynne wanted to make a CD so we waited in line forever we ended up buying the CD the title of the song was "Girls are better than boys" then we did virtual Jungle Cruise and the Pirates of the Caribbean I was disappointed that there was no apperance by Johnny Depp :jester: but we ended up enjoying it a lot we wanted to do it again but the line had gotten a lot longer. Ashlynne wanted to do the flying carpets and Roger wanted to eat so we ended up eating first then Ashlynne got to fly her carpet. I was getting tired so we decided to go back to the hotel. we browsed in the gift shop for a bit and noticed it was still raining!!! When we got back to the hotel we went up to the lounge and enjoyed some evening cordials we grabbed some waters for the next day then it was off to bed for us.

Tomorrow we go to Epcot!
 
Thanx for sharing ~ Wonderful reviews!!!!
 
The one time we did Disney Quest it was pouring rain and so crowded you couldn't walk around - thanks for posting!
 
I Intrigue You,

Thanks so much for the reports - as you can see below, we're off to the Polynesian LV Concierge in 7 weeks (woohoo). Could you list some of the tropical drinks you had - and the one's you liked?

Thanks again!
 

Sounds nice. Disney Quest is always a fun place to go, even when crowded. :)
 
Dr Tomorrow,

I can't remember the name of the drink but it was a mix of a Pina` Colada and Strawberry Daiquiri ......it was quite yummy so I ended up drinking that most of the time....When we went out to Jelly Rolls I drank "sex on the beach" and "Alabama Slammers" The pool side bar at the Poly had a limited selections of drinks that you could order.

If you have any more questions please feel free to ask :wave:
