WL trip 9/7-9/14, day three

[jlieblaw]

Again slept in this morning. Had breakfast in the room. Headed out a little before 10 and planned on going to Epcot. Took a detour to MK first. Rode the train (dd loves them) and then Dumbo, Small World and Peter Pan. No lines at all and the weather was great. DD liked all except Peter Pan because it was dark. She wanted to get off of it the whole time. Then headed over to Epcot where I think we may have seen only 3 other people. It was deserted. We had lunch in Mexico. The food was good with the exception of the beef taco on my plate. The beef was pretty tough. Also, we ordered a diet coke for dd and we all tried it and it was awful (although dd liked it). We asked the server if they served different soft drinks but she just said it was caffeine free. Went over to Norway and rode the ride there. DD was scared of course but the rest of us loved it. It was as close as I would get to a thrill ride since all others were off-limits due to my pregnancy. Mom, dd and I went back to the room for a nap. DD fell asleep before leaving the park so we took the monorails back to the WL boat from MK. Very long route but at least we didn't have to take dd out of the stroller to fold it up. Dad and sister did test track and mission space and then went to MK and did splash mtn and space mtn. They had no lines for any of them. They loved test track but didn't really care for mission space. Dad lost his hat on splash mtn and my sister got wet enough that they came back to the room to change clothes. We had sandwiches in the room and headed back to Epcot. We went to Honey I shrunk the audience. It was great! I had to leave a couple of minutes early when dd was scared. We saw Pooh and Eeyore in Great Britain and toured the countries with dd getting a mask done. Those masks are one of the greatest things. DD loved it as did we since it was free. We had desserts from France and Norway. We watched illuminations which we all loved and managed to get one of the first buses back to WL. We did have a bad experience with the bus. The other buses we had been on would open the back door for guests with strollers so that we wouldn't have to carry the stroller over all of the seats in the front. We asked the driver and she said to bring it on the front which meant my sister had to lift our rather large stroller over a lot of seats and people and she was only the first of many to have to do that. Many of us with strollers were not happy about that and she was the only driver that had us do that all week. Made it back to the room and all went to bed.

When we were there last winter there was not one bus driver that opened up the back door for us to bring our stroller on. It was really a pain!
