Seeing as this is our relaxing trip we relaxed this morning and didn’t get up until 9am. Once we were ready we went over to the food court for breakfast and then went to South Depot to get the bus to Downtown Disney. While sitting on the bench I felt something tickly on my right leg. I looked down expecting to find a leaf or something and discovered a little baby lizard was walking up my leg!!! I flicked it off and it landed on the ground. The bus came a few minutes later so I don’t know if he recovered.

We got off the bus at Pleasure Island and went round to Disney Quest. The line to get in was huge, there were loads of groups waiting to get in ( loads of kids so we assumed it was Summer camps or out of school care groups). When we got in we played the Buzz Lightyear game, the one in the cars were you gather the balls and shoot them at the other cars. We went up to the replay zone and bought game cards and managed to accumulate 1536 points between us and then exchanged them for gifts that we didn’t need though we did get 2 water bomb sling shots that I gave to my friends twins and they loved them. Had a quick look on the internet as I had to catch up with the latest goings on in the UK Big Brother house. We returned to the hotel about 3.30pm and spent some time in the pool.

In the evening we went to the Magic Kingdom. When we arrived we had some dinner in Tomorrowland. When we gave our order the CM asked if we were Scottish, we told her we were and she said there is a Scottish guy working in the kitchen and she never understands anything he says and we sounded just like him. She said she finds our accent stronger than the Irish. I was impressed she knew the difference.

Once we had been fed and watered we went to the Carousel of Progress and everyone joined in singing “There’s a great big beautiful tomorrow” which I love so this was fun, it was like mass karaoke without the words on a screen. Next up we rode the TTA with 4 CM in the car behind us, they did wait in the line. Next up was Buzz (we had got fast passes before we ate). We went over to the arcade at Space Mountain and had 3 games of Air Hockey. I won every time much to my delight. I am extremely competitive and do not take defeat graciously. We then headed down Main Street looking in all the shops and spending money and then watched Wishes from the end of Main Street. I think Wishes is now my favourite night time thing at WDW. After Wishes we got on the train and did a full circle of the park. We went round to Frontierland to see the 11pm showing of Spectro Magic and it was so deserted that you could count the number of people standing at the ropes. Next to us was a mother and her 2 children and across from us 3 people. We got lots of character interaction, it was fantastic. Returned to resort at 12.30am and got off the bus at the East Depot and had to run the gauntlet of sprinklers to get to our building.
No rain again today!!! Went to bed after setting wake up call for 8am (2 long lies in 2 days, we are spoiling ourselves).
 
“There’s a great big beautiful tomorrow” oh no this is going around in my head now LOL :)
