Tuesday 17 February
Today we had no hot water until 7 oclock so we were later down to breakfast. We were both more hungry this morning and tucked in well.
We still managed to be in the Park by 8.05. It was noticeably busier today . We started off with 3 goes round on Buzz, although you couldnt see Buzz today in the waiting area- he had his shower curtain pulled round him. I won once - for the first time this trip, much to dtrs annoyance. She went on Space Mountain and then we crossed over to Fantasyland, stopping on the way to chat to the Small World family.
We went on Peter Pan and Pinocchio, queuing for about 10-15 minutes for each.
We went upstairs in the Castle for a look around and to take a few photos.
Actually Fantasyland looks quite deserted in these.
We went downstairs for a little look in the Castle shop before going over to Liberty Arcade to queue - it was now 9.50 am.
At rope drop, Dtr ran to BTM while I picked up 2 Fps each.
After her ride we wanted to go on Phantom Manor but it was closed due to technical difficulties so we went instead to have a look round Woodys Round Up.
At FP time we went to BTM for Dtr to go round twice - and to buy the ride photo on the second time round. We decided not to go for Indiana Jones as the wait time was 30 minutes
We went on POTC instead. Walking through Fantasyland we saw Casey Jr and LPDCDF were both closed for the day. We walked down Main Street and I bought a few things in Lilys while Dtr watched the Character Express go by.
We went out then to the shop in the train station and I bought 2 baguettes and a large bottle of water for 8.50 Euro. We walked back to the hotel, munching on our baguettes. The weather was quite pleasant - we were able to sit by the lake and finish our food before going to our room. We had a bit of a rest (alright - we both went sound asleep) before heading back to the Park for our 3.30 booking at Walts. The meal was superb as usual and we were able to watch all the Parade from the window as well. Dtr decided to take a few 'atmosphere shots' first
Once the parade had passed we left Walts and went to Phantom Manor and then to Indiana Jones - with very little queuing. It was just getting dark so we had a twilight exploration of Spyglass Hill and the pont suspendu and pont flotant.
We had one more ride on POTC and then went to Fantasyland station to wait for a train. We had decided we wanted to travel a complete circuit of the Park - something we always say we will do, but dont usually make time for.
After this there was just time for one ride on IASW - our first time for this trip. This ride finished at one minute to 8, so the CM asked if we wanted to go round, which of course we did. After a quick look in the shops we waved goodbye to Mickey at Main Street Station and made our way back to the Hotel. Dtr persuaded me to go swimming and in the end I was glad she did - it is a lovely pool. At ten oclock it closed so we finally went back to our room for the night.
Tomorrow: we decide to have a day away from the Park
