Another change of plan--the water parks were looking good! We had TL planned last year but it rained. We knew BB was a close bus stop, so we blew off our Spoodles PS and got on a BB bus at 8:30. We got chairs by Tikes Peak and DH stayed with DS and DD#2 (only 46 1/2 inches tall) while DD#1 and I took the chair lift to Summit Plummet. I had a bruise from the wedgie; this was something I've done and never need to do again! We did cool runners and teamboat springs, then got the rest of the family. We all did Teamboat springs once, then the winding creek (the name escapes me). DS got sleepy on that, so then when I took him and DD#2 back to Tikes Peak he had about 5 or 6 meltdowns. DH and DD#1 went back to Summit Plummet. His feet came uncrossed and he hurt his, um, "marbles" as a result and also will not be doing that one again. DS did not want to do anything but sit in chairs in the wading pool while DD#2 did the slides, tube ride, etc., so I was glad to see DH come back. It ws about 12:30 so we got our stuff together and left.
We had a bite in the room and headed to Epcot. The kids only needed France, America and Canada in their passports. First we went to France. I got a chocolate mousse and we saw the movie--really liked the music. We headed over to America. The "American Adventure" show had just started, so we watched a Fife and Drum corps and then went inside to wait for Voices of Liberty, who I had seen recommended in Passporter. We were right on the front row. When they did "skip to my lou" and they were short a partner, the guy picked my DD#2, Erin! He talked to her--she told them where she was from, yes she had a boyfriend (!!) but she would be Ryan's (the singer) partner. They ended the song with her up there with a big strand of hair stuck on her face, as I just got the pictures back! AFter they sang, he talked to us for a while and signed the girls' books--the CM said "last call" for the next show, so he took us up in the CM elevator and told us what a lovely family we had!!!! :) :) The show itself was very stirring! On the way out a guy asked us where we were from in Toledo--he's from the same suburb too, and DH's company has done some remodeling for his daughter!!:p We ran over to China and replaced the fan Erin had bought two days before that broke really fast, then to Canada to get the passport signed, then over to Cape May for our dinner PS. What a nice buffet--we stuck to the land foods mostly (except for the shrimp) but the dessert bar was pretty substantial!
We went back to Epcot to see the 7Pm British Invasion show, then the 7:30 Off Kilter show. Then DH took the kids on Spaceship earth and I found guest services to compliment to the UK CMs. We then decided to try to board the monorail to MK and try to see Spectro, but we missed it. We liked riding the monorail anyhow. We took the bus back to BWV and swam and then did laundry and packed up.
 
Yikes! I hear Summit Plummet is bad for wedgies :earseek: It was nice of you to remember to tell Disney about the UK Cms. We have a Just Say Thanks board here on the Dis. I hope you will drop over there and post too. I know that these are passed on to the CMs.
 
Great report!
My husband hurt himself on that slide as well.
I'm going to stay clear of it next trip.
