Have we really already gotten to our last full day in the parks before our cruise?
We headed off to Hollywood Studios for our breakfast at Hollywood and Vine. From the Beach Club there is a boat you take to Hollywood Studios. Once there, we headed straight to get our fastpasses for Toy Story Mania. On this day we were lucky at 9:30, fast pass return was at 12:15.
We still had time before our breakfast reservation, so we headed towards the street of America, where we stopped to see Mater and McQueen. There was no line here and we had then to ourselves. Next stop was Phineas and Ferb, there was a short line here. We had left the autograph books at our hotel, so Phineas and Ferb signed Meagan's Hat instead.
Hollywood and Vine once upon a time use to have Minnie and Mickey dressed up as characters in the 50's and I fell in love with the place then. Now it is a Playhouse Disney character Meal with Handy Manny, Oso, Jake and June, along with CM who sing playhouse Disney songs. We went for Ashley who was 2 at the time, but it was Gillian who was almost 11 who had the most fun. She went and danced like crazy with the CM.
Next we divided, Meagan and Jeff went and got fast passes for Star tours and then went to see Voyage of the little mermaid. While Gillian, Ashley and I went to the drawing Academy to draw. We drew Eeyore, mine ended up looking like a sock puppet, Gillian's was really good. Ashley's looked like a 2 year old drew it. :) He did keep saying circle, circle, circle, repeating the CM.
The 3 of us then went to meet Wreck it Ralph and Penelope. We had yet to see the Movie yet, so we had no idea of her name at the time. The interaction was fabulous and well worth the wait.
Then we were off to Toy Story Mania.
Note a 2 year old is not very helpful in getting a good score. He wanted to pull the string, but he had no idea how to do it correctly, so we had a very low score.
Meagan and Jeff headed to Tower of Terror, while Gillian, Ash and I headed back to our hotel, as Gillian was feeling dizzy, from Toy Story Mania and wanted to get out of the sun.
After a little nap in our room, the kids took a swim, then we headed to Epcot for some Supper. The kids ate at the Electric Umbrella, while Jeff and I ate at food and Wine. Epcot was crazy busy. If there wasn't the pre cruise Dessert Party we would have left and gone to another park. The kids wanted to do the Kidcot stops, so we started in Mexico and worked our way around. Jeff and I grabbed food at a variety of places, we didn't have room for our previous visit.
In Germany we realized that Gillian was still feeling dizzy, she really wanted to stay for the dessert party, so we rented a wheel chair for her. We quickly found out that people move out of your way more when you have a wheel chair then they do for a stroller.
We arrived at the Dessert party, got our wristbands, and waited to be let in. I saw several of my friends from my last cruise, and I met several new friends.
Meagan met her penpal and a group of them sat together and watched together. Seeing this group of kids together was a magical moment.
At then end of the evening we headed back to our hotel, put the kids to bed and got packed up ready for the cruise.
