To recap, here’s the cast of characters: me (40 something), DH (also 40 something) and our two DDs "Princess" (16) and "Little Legs" (11).

Got up and made breakfast for everyone, while Princess took her shower. SInce we don’t have any plans in place, we decided over breakfast to go back to Epcot, so we could ride MS and TT. As we arrived at Epcot, DH’s phone goes off. Yesterday, work called him with a crisis, and he had to talk them through it while we waited in line for ToT. Today, they were calling as we walked through the gate, (they seem to call him on evey trip we take), so he put them on hold as we went through security, then resumed as we tried to figure out which ride to get FP for, and which to wait in stand by. Decided to get FP to TT (and received a bonus FP for HISTA.) Wanted to stand by for MS, but by the time DH finally got off the phone with work, we figured we’d miss getting shrunk, so instead, we spent time in Mouse Gear (and I got to buy myself a new Mickey Mouse watch). Got shrunk, went back and flew the mission to Mars, ate lunch at the Electric Umbrella, then had to go to Japan. Princess used to love Koala Yummies (a cookie with chocolate filling in it). Her friend was down to WDW in January and found them, but Princess forgot in March, and forgot last night when we were there, so we took the boat around the lake, got the cookies, took the boat back, and rode TT. Took a picture of Princess behind the wheel of the Hummer (hers didn’t turn out in March, and she was SO upset, do you understand now where her name comes from???). There wasn’t anything else we wanted to see, so we went back to SSR. Got into the room, there were birthday balloons and a birthday card from Chip and Dale waiting on the "dining room" table. DH was actually excited to get a birthday card!!!! DH had requested the high speed internet cable from housekeeping this morning, so I went online to the TSA (transportation and safety administration) to see what I needed to get through airport security. Found a phone number, called them, they told me to call my airlines, because it was up to them to decide if they would let me on the plane! So, I called ATA, and they told me I’d need a police report, why didn’t I have one yet, what was I waiting for? Considering I wasn’t exactly sure if I lost my license in Chicago, or in Orlando, I didn’t know who I’d call!

Little Legs wanted to go swim in the pool, so we all put on our suits, walked down to High Rock Spring pool, and DH and Little Legs swam while Princess and I went to guest services and talked to Mike and Jeff, who were SO helpful! Mike called the Orange County Sheriff (and we both lost it when he had to give directions to the dispatcher on how to get to SSR!!). Waited, and waited, and waited, until finally the sheriff arrived. Disney security came by, asking if there was a problem, told him what was up, so he left. Once I had my copy of the police report, Princess insisted I go in the pool, so both girls made mom go down the slide (it’s fun). Pool felt nice, and there were maybe 10 people tops in the pool with us!

We went back and forth trying to decide where to go for supper, decided to go over to DTD. Walked over, decided to have supper at Wolfgang Pucks Express. (Princess was happy, they had chicken pamesan!) Did some shopping at World of Disney, closed up the place, then walked home and watched the PI fireworks from our balcony.
 
Loving your trip report so far. Is MS really awesome or more hype? I always buy a watch at WDW, too, usually one of the cheap ones for about $25 but I wear it a lot on weekends and it reminds me of being in the world. What a nightmare to lose your license - yikes! Hope it all turns out ok. Looking forward to day three:)
 
MS is a really cool ride. When we went down in March, I was really apprehensive, after reading all the reports here on the boards, but it doesn't make you feel sick. Little Legs giggles and screams through the entire ride, but then again, she has a real need for speed! :wave2:
