today is our last day at WDW.....we had such a wonderful trip, meeting up with new friends, embracing old memories, creating new memories and experiencing new adventures!
we were up early today....enjoyed my last cup of coffee on our balcony and finished packing....called for luggage and they were there in 5 minutes, did our check-out and check-in for the airport and headed off for our last day in the World!
we have always finished our trips with breakfast at Chef Mickey's, we got the bus to MK and walked over to the CR!
got checked in and waited a bit for our table....one we got seated and our food the fun started
when Goofy made it over to our table he was quite taken with our "GoofyMan's Girl" and "GoofyMan's Lady" t-shirts we had gotten made to have Jim be a part of our trip....Goofy thought they were meant for him!
so regret not having this photos of what happend next.....Goofy had given Megan her hugs and posed for her photo and then saw that I was wearing my shirt also, he got so excited, he grabbed my arm and linked it through his and started to parade me around our area of the restaurant, pointing to my shirt and then to himself....Donald came up to see what was going on and they started "fighting" over me, pulling me back and forth, so I had to reassure Donald that I liked him too! it was priceless and fun!
we had about 4 hours to fill before heading back to AKL for the Magic Express, so we walked back over to the MK!
we had 10 magic FP from our adventure the night before on BTMRR - extras from Shawna and her family since they had left earlier that morning.
within the next 1 1/2 hours we rode the following using our FP's....
Space Mountain
Buzz Lightyear
BTMRR - twice
Jungle Cruise
even with crossing the park and travel time we were quiet amazed we got them done so quickly!
It had gotten pretty warm that day, so we got a cool drink and found some shade, did a bit more wandering around and looking in shop's before it was time to say our good-byes...
headed back to AKL and picked up our carry-one bags, got cleaned up and a snack to enjoy while we waiting for our bus back to MCO.
made it through security pretty quickly and settled in for our wait to take off...no delays going home, no crying babies, just a quiet and relaxing flight home...got back to Seattle around 10pm, got our luggage and called mom for our curbside pick up....we were home around 1130pm and crashed hard, took us a couple of days to get back into the normal groove.
Thank you all for joining our magical journey to WDW!!!
