Up and off to Epcot, met up with mom and dad. (brother's family left today) DadMc stayed home to get some extra rest - I think we finally wore him out. We were supposed to call him at 12:00 but when we called his room there was no answer. Kept calling him all day until about 5:00 when we realized I had been calling my parents room and leaving them messages. Finally got a hold of him and he wasn't feeling well so he decided to stay home the rest of the night too.

Went to the Living Seas and mom and dad went off to the lands. We went back on test track (FP) and then went to innoventions to send a video email to our nieces and nephews. Went over to the countries and saw some of the movies and got some food in the millennium village. Saw the American Adventure for the first time. I don't know why I've never seen this, but it was wonderful and brought tears to my eyes. Had a rainbow kaki gori (shaved ice) at Japan I think. This was great - I think I have now tried all of the snacks I have read about on the DIS!

Got caught in the TON parade trying to hook up with mom and dad at 4:00. Got some Mexican food and margarita at the cantina - quite good - and then finished up the countries. Left the park at around 6:30 - 7:00 and headed to MK. The purpose was to see the Main Street Electrical Parade.

Got there just before the 8:00 parade and it was packed! Split up and we went to Tomorrow land and it was packed. Did Alien Encounter and nothing else there it was just too crowded. So we did the next best thing! Shop! Danny got the sweatshirt he had been eyeing all week and I bought a couple of little things. Went over to Frontier Land to find mom and dad. Thought we'd try to find a different spot for the 10:00 Main Street Electrical parade. Very uncrowded over there. The parade was wonderful - a little short but took lots of photos and video - hope they come out. Walked slowly out of the park and stopped for Danny to by his Mickey hat. Home at around 11:30, did a little packing and off to bed

We like to watch the parades from Frontierland too. We also made it a quest to try all of the snacks here on the DIS. We made a pretty good dent in them. :D

Thanks for sharing your trip with us, Kathy. :)
