It was a planned lazy day today. I woke up a little early just to go and plonk our towels on some sun beds as the hotel had gotten busier and we were running out of good sun beds. I honestly didn't want to get up at all that day as it was our last full day :sad:

We missed breakfast so went straight to the pool and had a swim and a sun bathe. Karl decided to pop and get us a croissant each to keep us going until later in the day.

After a few hours by the pool, we both got a bit bored and decided we would just go and get ready and head to Hollywood Studios. We were going for Fantasmic so didn't want to be at the park too early.

We got dressed then remembered we probably wouldn't be having any food in the evening so decided to go to Pizza Hut across from out hotel before we set off. I don't know why but it tasted so much better than the ones in the UK. We shared a huge stuffed crust supreme, yum!

Once we got to H.S, we went over to Toy Story which, or course, didn't have any fastpasses left. As we really wanted to ride it, we decided we would queue anyway as this would be the last chance we would have! The queue line was 70 minutes. I managed to take some great photos this time as the first time we went on it, we had fast passes so missed everything.











I loved the theme in this ride, it's so cool! We just reached Mr Potatohead when he took out his ear...and then broke down. It was pretty scary to be honest, haha! His voice went all slow and deep...



20 minutes in to our 70 minute wait, we got pulled out of the queue and put in the quick queue which went straight on the ride, yaaaay :cool1: This ride makes me laugh so much and for once, I actually BEAT Karl's score, whoop whoop! He still thinks I cheated but honestly, it was just my amazing skill and aim!

After this we went on to Tower of Terror (one of my favorite rides of the whole trip!) which was a very bouncy one this time



then on to watch Beauty and the Beast live. I knew this wouldn't be Karl's cup of tea but I really wanted to go and watch it so he let us go.











After the show we went and bought cookies and ice cream and jumped in the queue for Rock 'n' Roller coaster which was also a 70 minute wait. Although after a while of not moving, they came to tell us it had broken down. We decided to leave this one and started queuing for Fantasmic.

My battery in my camera had started to run out so I wasn't able to take many pictures of the show (which was actually good as it meant I could concentrate on that instead of taking photographs). We both LOVED this show. The special effects were amazing.



It was the sort of show that gave me goose pimples. It's certainly a must see!

When the show was over we headed for one last ride, not just of the night but of the entire holiday :sad1:



The drop this time was awesome. It literately went from top to bottom and boy did it make our stomach turn, it was amazing!! Then, as quick as you could say Disney, it was over. All the rides, the magic and the excitement. We got back to the room and I cried, I was so sad to be leaving. We had a wonderful time, Karl had enjoyed it more than I thought he ever would and even he was sad to be leaving.

We stayed up as late as we could, talking about the holiday to try and stop it being the next day when finally, we had to give in and go to bed.
