The mad girlie spur of the moment trip - Day 5 AK, Epcot and MK!

Day 5

AK take 2.

Thankfully today the rain gods were sparing us! It was glorious sunshine again

We hopped on the bus to AK and we were there shortly after rope drop.



First stop was Everest, we had a fastpass for this and I decided to brave it out with Jen - I love the ride but I HATE the backwards bit, it always makes me feel seriously sick. This time was no exception... Afterwards was the wonderful Nemo show now for me, this ain't no Lion King but with it being shut this was a good compromise... in a big blue world.... come on you know the words It was annoying that a guy next to us had his phone on and answered it when it rang... what was worse was the CM's who were having a full on conversation right behind us, I must have turned round 5 times and looked at them hoping they might get the hint but they kept chatting and laughing away... it was really annoying as it was so loud.



We then wandered over to Its Tough To Be A Bug, I love it but I always feel so sad for all the screaming children lol.





We then rode Dinosaur and both loved it (ignore my face hahahahahaha)



It was then time for lunch at Yak and Yeti!

Jen grabbed a cocktail and I had a non alcoholic one.







Jen had the Tuna salad while I had bourbon chicken. We both LOVED our food.





We even decided on desserts, I had mango pie and Jen the wontons. She wasn't over keen but I as always loved the mango pie





Lunch paid for (sadly without the TiW discount as they don't offer it here ) and we made our way round the corner to Kali Rapids. We had a fastpass for this and on the way in we got my DAS card stamped with a return time for 30 minutes time so we were able to ride twice with not too long a wait in the middle sat down nearby.

Some random pics on my waterproof camera.

We then decided to call it a day and make our way back to the hotel for a dip in the pool and relax, though we stopped on the way for the last fastpass of the day...



Just as we came out after meeting Mickey and Minnie it was almost time for the parade so we stayed to watch it as it would be the last time seeing as it would be finished when I came back in October



Once the parade had finished we headed out to the bus, luckily we had very little wait and we were back at the hotel, changed and in the pool!



After a dip in the pool we headed back to the room for a shower and to get ready for tonight. I had also arranged to meet my lovely friend Carrie in the hotel to swap goodies, she had been to walmart to buy me some honey mustard (we cant get it here) and I had brought some things over for her. We had a chat and walked out to the bus stop intending to chat some more while we waited for the bus but as it happens there was a bus there waiting for us so we said a quick goodbye and planned to meet tomorrow in Magic Kingdom for dinner.

A short bus ride later we were in Epcot ready for more round the world fun...



We headed straight for world showcase, starting in Mexico. Jen grabbed a tequila flight but sadly hated it, she drank them anyway though!





I had the best food at the China pavilion flower and garden booth. It was a chicken pancake, OMG I am salivating just thinking about it, it was that good!



We tried a few other things to eat (me) and drink (Jen).





We only stopped at one ride, that was Soarin'.





We came out of Soarin' just as Illuminations finished so we hot footed over to the monorail. We didn't want to go home yet so Magic Kingdom it was going to be!

We headed over to Fantasyland as it was getting late, I dunno about anyone else but I usually find it a bit quieter in the evenings once the kids have all gone back to the hotel for bed We managed to ride It's a small world, Peter Pan, Winnie the Pooh all while Wishes was on, we walked on to them all!





Afterwards we decided to call it a day as we were pretty shattered now and so we headed out to wait for the bus. Sadly we had the longest wait ever and a huge queue built up while we were there. It was also pretty darn cold so we were starting to freeze One did come after about 25 mins though and we were soon back at the resort and in bed.

Tomorrow MK
