The mad girlie spur of the moment trip - Day 6 MK

Day 6

MK!

Woke up knackered still from the rather mental day and night before. We were planning on hitting MK and spending all day and evening there but we decided to take a lazy morning and mooch around the hotel for a bit instead. Jen fancied a swim and I being the lazy cow I am, decided to lay in bed instead LOL. In fact Jen went for her swim and came back, and I was still lying in bed... We got dressed and hopped on a bus to MK.

We first went to the Tiki Room followed by Pirates. We stopped on the way for a photopass pic



It was then time for our lunchtime fastpass at Be our Guest (1:20pm). We were shown in and made our order at the counter.





I had the turkey and Jenny had the kids pork. I'm not a huge turkey fan as it can be a bit dry but this was AMAZING. I would definitely have it again no problems. I got a tropical fruit cream puff and Jenny got a strawberry cupcake.









My fries were cold though (they were cold last time too) so I asked for new hot ones, there seemed to be a bit of confusion and she said I would need to pay for them, Jen said surely not if they are cold and the lady went away again. I wasn't exactly sure if she was getting some more or not. The manager was making her way round all the tables asking how things were and I said about the fries and that I wasn't sure if I was getting fresh ones or not so she went to get some... and then about 2 minutes later some more turned up. So I ended up with 3 portions of fries hehehe whoops. I obviously didn't eat them all... I left the cold ones Jen loved her pork as well so it was a hit all around. We took a few pics inside and then started to make our way outside to find a spot for the parade.









I was in the scooter today as it was going to be a long day so we were going to find the disabled viewing area in liberty square, unfortunately just as we were walking out I felt decidedly unwell (damn those 2 portions of fries!!) and I had to run back inside to use the bathroom. Once I started to feel better we headed over to watch the parade, but sadly cause we were late we had to watch from the back behind people who were stood up so I couldn't really see all that much. The parade looked amazing from what I could see and I was *soooooo* sad that this was the only time I was gonna get to see it before we left.

My view...



When the parade had finished we made our way over to ride Ariel both being huge Little Mermaid fans this was a highlight for us

Afterwards it was getting on time to meet my friend Carrie so off we went to meet her at the front of the park. We found Carrie leaning on a trashcan, we joked that where else in the world would you actually be able to lean on a trashcan without being totally grossed out, but Disney! We headed up to ride the railroad and went on a full circuit of the park.

We then had a meet and greet with the main man himself, Mickey! Carried unfortunately didn't have one as fastpasses hadn't opened up yet for AP holders but we asked nicely if she could join us and they said no problem I guess they took pity on us as she wouldn't be taking up any extra time, we either met him with 2 or 3 in our party - so not like she would be taking up a seat on a ride. Either way, we were very grateful!

Mickey was feeling very talkative today though he did make us do an awful pose for the camera...



I do not like this picture haha

Afterwards we decided to walk through to Tomorrowland and ride TTA, Monsters inc and Buzz.



(I won LOL)





We had arranged to meet up with Jackie for dinner so we headed over to the Plaza and arranged to meet her there. We managed to grab a table nearby just as she found us, so off i went to check us in and grab a buzzer. We perused the menu while we sat and had pretty much all decided what we wanted to eat by the time our buzzer went off and we were sent inside.

Our server was great and we all had a fab meal. I didn't fancy anything too big after my lunchtime incident, so I ordered the kids meal of chicken fingers however they could only give me an adult version so I didn't eat it all, ah well!





We had such a great time chatting it felt like after almost no time at all our meals were paid for and we were back outside saying goodbye to Carrie. She had to leave to pick up her husband from work so we had big hugs outside and said goodbye till October.

With Jackie, we wandered round to the jungle cruise. This is so much fun in the dark! The jokes don't get any better but it definitely feels a bit scarier! We then went to ride a new one for me, at least for WDW (have been on it in DLP). Flying carpets







We then made our way to BTMRR. While we were on it the fireworks started, something I haven't ever done before







When we got off we watched the last of the fireworks from where we were. We then made our way to liberty square to get a spot for the parade



Once the parade was over we sat for a few minutes chatting and letting the crowds disperse, we had time for 1 last ride before the park closed but we couldn't decide which, but we did eventually decide on Mickey's Philharmagic



It was then time to make our way out to the bus we did turn to say a sad goodbye to the castle on the way

We said goodbye to Jackie outside and went to wait for aaaaaaages for our bus. We were pretty cod, tired and sad by now so it wasn't doing anything for our mood taking so long... It did come in the end though and we were soon back at the hotel and in bed by midnight.


Tomorrow, a sad farewell.
