Well after yet again another sleepless night. Not settling into the time difference.
7am all starting to stir, i swtich on the TV to check the weather, looks like it is going to thunder this afternoon. We decide to make the most of the good weather and give chloe the choice of Blizzard beach or MGM.
Princess has spoken it is Blizzard Beach, so we pack up our towels, arm bands etc, jump in the car we arrive at 830ish, EMH is morning, the crowds are starting to gather.
Once in we head straight to the refillable sports bottle, then off to lockers.
We get a bed in the tikes area, and head off to the teamboat springs, we love this, we climb the stairs only to find they have changed the rules on the boat, you need to have minimal of 4 people to ride, so we have to wait until other families of 2 or 3 turn up. It is not the same when you have to share this ride, DON'T GET ME WRONG I DO SHARE MY TOYS!!! lol.
Any way at the bottom Chloe says again again. We coax her to ride the taboggan racers, only found out she can do this at the end of our last holiday. Several goes on this legs are starting to get tired now.
After that we wonder around towards the runoff rapids, i noticed a child same size as chloe with a life vest riding this. I asked a lifeguard if chloe could go on, they asked if she could swim, my face must of dropped as i said no. He told me to go a get a life vest and she would be able to ride in the double tubes with either of us. Yeah.
After 10 goes or so, and very tired legs after climbing all these stairs great work out.
We head back to the hotel around 2, i'm tired and so is .........
We shower and change, and head to MK for our tea, whilst waiting for the bus the thunder starts with good lightening, we enter the park and the rain starts really heavy, everyone heads to the same place as us, the covered area not far from the baby care centre near Crystal Palace.
We have our pochos in the pram, i have a brain wave, we use my poncho to cover the pram whislt we are having our tea, we take a run for it to the seats outside the restuarant, paul parks the pram, and i check us in.
Food great as usually, chloe has a blast with the characters.
Afterwards the park is quite busy so we head to DTD, i need to purchase sunglasses as the photopass photo's are coming out bad, my eyes are closed on everyone so far.
I get some oakley ones $105 i can change the lenses.
We have a look around Virgin and walk through pleasure island to the shock that shops are closed and the stage area is being pulled down.
We have a look around the art of disney, and the pin shop.
By this time bed is shouting hopefully i manage to sleep, we take a slow stroll around SSR trying to find the quickest way back.
