the dog is very cute, and good luck potty training...that reminds me of when we first got out dog, he was so small that in the middle of the night when he had to go potty, he would cry because he could not get outof his bed it was to far down for him only 2 inches of a step...so i had to get him and carry him outside...the one night when he was about 12 weeks old, he got out of bed in the middle of the night went in our closet and he must have pushed the door closed behind him, because he pooped in there and was crying, we woke up and could not find him for a few minutes, then we went in the closet and he was sittin gthere winning and crying.


i am sure that you already have some great stories, hope to hear about them.

You have to continue your report until I leave next month on my trip. What will I do with my time? I am having a great time reading your report. I have not been to Coral Reef but we have ressies this year. I saw the menu online the other day and all I have to say is YUMMIE!!!!!

 

[mylag1rl]

Wow Lesley you sure are busy. A puppy alone is hard enough work. Can't wait for the next update.

 

[Beana9802]

Welcome Mickey! SOO CUTE!

Sorry I have been MIA, but I have been staying at my grandmother's with no Internet! Good luck with Uof P!

 

[timandlesley]

Hello everyone, Lesley will be posting an update tomorrow....so please don't go. We would miss you and then I would have to be thrown into counseling because I would miss you oh so much. So please stay with us and know we will deliver the rest of our adventure. OK?

No really, I mean it....don't go or I would cry a river of tears, and people driving by would stop and laugh at me and then I would cry some more....just a vicious circle.

Thanks 4 being the best!!

Tim

Too funny Tim!!! I don't think anyone is going anywhere anytime soon!!!! We all know Lesley is CRAZY busy---honestly, I don't know how she juggles it all!!! AMAZING!!!

And besides, if we all stopped now without seeing how it all ends, it would be like watching LOST for the past several years and deciding now that "Nah, I don't think I need to keep watching anymore to find out WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON!!!?!?!?!?!?!" See, you have us hooked by your PTR, and now there is no way POSSIBLE to stop reading to see how it ends........WE HAVE TO KNOW, WE ARE ADDICTED, IF WE DON'T FIND OUT--WE WILL GO INSANE!!!! Brilliant ploy!!! You took a note right out of the creators of Lost's playbook!!! GENIUS!!!

So our LAST final FULL day had arrived (don’t worry, still a half day left), I was sad the trip was coming to an end. We had a 7:30 wake up call on this day (big surprise) and we had voted the night before to hit Epcot one last time since we still had more we wanted to see there and WE JUST LOVE THAT PARK! As we headed out the door the Magical Express tag was hanging on the door and my heart SUNK! We headed to the bus stop, as we did we couldn’t decide where we wanted to eat lunch, so I called around and got us into Mexico, we figured we hadn’t tried it before and we love Mexican food. Lauren got all accessorized for the morning putting on all of her lovely jewels from her Downtown Disney purchase and we headed down to roaring forks for breakfast. Here is the accessorized Lauren enjoying her breakfast:

We headed out to Epcot and decided to enjoy some of the things we haven’t gotten to see yet so I headed to Innoventions with the kids, Tim headed to Test Track to get FP’s for one of our favorite rides and then we met up at Innoventions. We love that Fire house where you get to fight fires. We were the only ones there so it was boys against girls.

Boys won : ( It was such fun though. If you’ve never played it you each get a flashlight and you have to go around the house from room to room putting your lights on the fire hazards, then they total up the scores for your teams – SUCH FUN!.
Then Lauren explored the fire safety house:

We had fun at the computer stations:

Tim and Luke sent some emails home:

There was this new Velcro thing that looked like fun so Lauren and I checked it out. The ladies there were so super nice (grandmother types who just really loved their jobs). They helped Lauren find parts to make a doll out of the Velcro and you get to keep your creation which is really cool.

Here is Lauren with her completed doll and bracelet they made for her:

Then Lauren spotted a kidcot station:

Then we spotted a show we’ve never seen before called “What’s Your Problem” It started in a few minutes so we hung out there for that to start:

The lady came out and explained to us the history of Velcro in a cute and fun way:

This was a game show where you had to try and solve problems using Velcro. It was only us and one other family. Here is a view of the stage:

Here are the hosts (Hook and Loop) : )

The brothers of the other family were called up first and were given a stack of odd shaped cubes and told to make the tallest tower (each cube had Velcro on it). It was very cute to watch them go and Luke and Lauren got a kick out of it. Then it was time for the next game and our family got picked. I gave the camera to the mom of the other family to take our pictures. We were in a relay race where we had to pass the Velcro blocks from one end of the stage to the other and Tim and I had Velcro gloves on, this was HALARIOUS!

We had SUCH fun at this show, these are the types of hidden gems of Disney that make these trips so memorable for us.
Then, what would a trip to Epcot be for the kids and I without visiting Figment (Tim was a good sport about it). So we headed over:

My silly family in line:

Of course, AS USUAL there was absolutely no line and the guy who loaded us saw my camera and offered to take a family photo of us on the ride:

What a fun ride, I just love that little purple guy!
We had fun exploring at the exit attractions of course .Here is Luke conducting the orchestra:

And Lauren having fun on the sound pads (see how EMPTY it is, gotta love Epcot in the morning)!

 

[timandlesley]

Then I went to one of the computer terminals and had a blast making myself into all kinds of animals.
Here are my funny pics:
Lesley the cat:

How about Lesley as Simba:

And as a seal : )

I look pretty cute huh : )
After that we headed out and were THRILLED to see the Jammitors again, THESE GUYS ROCK, I could watch them play for hours, such fun:

Once again they announced it was Jr. Jammitor day and had stickers for the kids, so they raced up:

My happy guys with their Jr. Jammitor stickers:

Then, being the laid back morning it was we headed to Club Cool, Luke wanted Tim to try the Beverly:

Lauren and I enjoying the morning:

The kids with their soda bounty:

By this time we decided to head over to Test Track and give our FP’s a try, we stopped to get cooled off in front:

Luke and I in line for Test Track:

What a fun ride, I just love it!
The cars they have on display there are so cool. Here are Tim and Luke being silly by the car display:

The kids enjoyed getting inside the cars and pretending they were ours:

By then it was time to head to Mexico for lunch, it is so beautiful in there, really feels like you are on the streets of Mexico at night:

The line for the restaurant was INSANELY long, it took Tim 20 minutes JUST TO CHECK IN!

I was starving at this point. As we sat there waiting for Tim to check in, Luke was positive this was a hidden Mickey:

Here are my patient little buddies waiting forever for their lunch:

Tim in line………. Still…………………….

The good news is after he checked us in it was just a few minutes until our table was called. It was so dark we could barely see our food but the chips and salsa they brought kept us happy (they were the best part of the meal by far):

Tim’s hidden Mickey : )

I ordered some kind of soup (don’t remember what) for an appetizer, it was gross and I barely had any of it:

Here is Tim’s entrée, again, don’t remember what it was but it was gross:

The kids had a good meal, they got chicken quesadillas which they both love so it was a good meal for them. Tim and I were so disappointed, this was like Taco bell quality food at best, actually I enjoy Taco bell better. Here was the desert, I think it was flan, again, pretty gross:

Picture of me in the dark restaurant, I don’t look too happy do it?

Another restaurant photo:

The restaurant was really really beautiful but the food was just horrible.
After the meal was over the kids and I wanted to ride the boat ride, Tim stayed to settle the bill and told us to go ahead, so we did:

Luke in line:

I just love this ride:

If you haven’t ever tried it, you really should experience the pretty Mexican setting and the boat ride at Epcot at least once.
We had promised Luke we would go back to Project Tomorrow which is the exit area fun zone for Spaceship earth. That night when we were there and it was closing I asked the CM if you could come in without waiting in line for the ride and he said, “yes, just go inside the Project Tomorrow doors on the side”. SCORE. So, we headed that way before we left Epcot:

The kids had such fun on the one game. You get these little shuffle sticks and have to shuffle the energy around to the different buildings in time, it is so cool:

Then we headed to the bus stop and were greeted by an EMPTY bus:

There is nothing like it!!!!
For some reason Tim took a picture of his watch, looks like 3:00 ???

Then we headed back to discuss our LAST NIGHT. It’s gonna be good AND unexpected so STAY TUNED!
