After a rather long night of uneasy sleep, DH and I were up at the crack of dawn (or all that mist and haze that awaited us outside) to retrieve my pillows and blanket. We jumped in the car and headed out to the Country Inn. We kind of had some issues getting to the hotel (took the wrong exits), but we managed to get there in one piece.

The woman at the desk seemed rather amused when I asked for my blanket and pillows. Guess she wanted to put a face to the paniced voice on the phone. After I thanked her, DH and I headed across the street to IHoP.

We don't have an IHoP anywhere close to where we live, and I love their breakfasts. We ordered and as DH paged through the USA Today, I sipped the best orange juice I would have on our entire trip. Nothing beats fresh squeezed juice! Breakfast was great, and with our bellies full, we headed back to the WL. After dropping off my precious cargo, we took the bus back to Epcot.

I wish I could say DH felt better, but he didn't. His equilibrium was all wonky, and the heat and humidity we had for our entire trip didn't make him feel any better. We spent most of our day wandering around the WS. We saw the American Adventure and the flag from the WTC. We also checked out all the shops. Again, my DH was a trooper b/c he doen't particularly enjoy shopping. I saw a gorgeous hand blown glass rooster in Germany (I collect rooster stuff for the kitchen), and I will have to get one next trip. It rained briefly during the day, but for the most part, the weather cooperated.

We headed back to the WL to shower and change for our PS at the Coral Reef. I was kind of disappointed that they did away with the ride here. We looked around inside, then made our way to the restaurant for dinner. I wish I could remember our server's name. He was wonderful and had been there since it opened. Our dinner was great, and the romantic atmosphere couldn't have been better. One of the highlights of dinner was the chocolate lave cake. Too decadent for me on a regular basis, but as we said time and time again, this was our honeymoon!

We left dinner and did TT again. The CM inside the boarding area saw our bride and groom pins and asked everybody to congratulate us on our wedding. It was just one of our "magical" moments.

We did SE again(another favorite for DH), then left for the WL. Again, we did not stay for Illuminations. We were both tired, and DH still wasn't himself.

Once back and settled in our room, I heard this strange music from outside. It kind of startled me, but then I looked out our sliding doors and saw the electrical water pagent. How cute!. DH and I watched for a while, then went to bed.

Coming next, part four. Will DH ever feel better and how will he like meeting the mouse who started it all?
 
I am enjoying your reports and can't wait to read the next one. I love reading about honeymoons in WDW!
I see at the bottom of your signature you have that you are going to the Swan and MNSSHP in 2003, I'm assuming that means you will be going sometime in October, which my husband and I just did in 2002 and celebrated our anniversary and my birthday while there and it was absolutely my best WDW vacation ever. MNSSHP was definitely worth going to in October, you will have a blast!
 
Thanks for your report! I really hope your DH starts to feel better. Being under the weather is no fun on vacation! ;)
 
If you like fresh squeezed OJ go to the Buffet at the Swan Hotel for breakfast. All you care to dri nk and really the best I've ever had.
 

hope your dh is feeling better .....I can't do Body Wars but can do Star tours at MGM.....same with my hubby.....thanks again for your report
 
I'm glad to hear you got your pillows and blanket back. You were lucky! I also suffer motion sickness so I have a lot of sympathy for your DH. I hope he got some medication for the rest of the trip!
 
I'm enjoying your report. I know the feeling about your blanket. I still have one of my blankets from when I was an infant. It doesn't sleep with me...but it's in my night stand. My teddy sleeps with me and fiance doesn't mind. Thankfully he loves my teddy, named curly.
