We did a half day at Hollywood Studios yesterday hitting The Little Mermaid and the Tower of Terror, which both kids loved. We had fast passed the Toy Story activity by never made it as it seemed that Skylar had come Down with a urinary tract infection. We went back to the hotel right after lunch an Skylar and Sheri went to the doctor and got a prescription. Of course as soon as they returned, everything started flowing properly so we never started her on the antibiotics.
Tc and I hung out at the pool all afternoon and got some good relaxation time in.
Today it’s back to Hollywood Studios to finish up with Toy Story, Star Wars, The Indiana Jones Stunt Show, and Rock and Roll Rollercoaster.
At the show Voyage of the Little Mermaid now. Walked right in off the street for the noon performance. Kids got Minnie’s autograph right before this.
Got 5 PM fastpass tickets for Toy Story action ride.
We went to Epcot for dinner Sunday night. Sheri and I were tired of pizza and hot dogs. We had som Mexican plates and TC had part of a burrito and actually liked it he says. I think he was just too tired and hungry to notice. We also did the space training ride(kids did it twice). And the GM test track whil we were there. The rest of epcot was pretty dissappointing an I don’t think we’ll go back.
Kids got to bed about 10 and sheri did a brief visit to the pool.
This morning the kids slept till 9:30 and we are just now walking out of breakfast and heading to Universal Studios for the day. Look for pics from there later.
Having a great day at Blizzard Beach for our 2nd Disney day. We slept in a little late again. The upside to this is that the breakfast lines are gone by the time we get there We seemed to have misplaced TC’s swim goggles somewhere between panama city and Orlando but he is borrowing Skylar’s.
We had to get Skylar a new swimsuit when we got here as hers was disentegrating. The Disney premium was only about ten bucks and she is thrilled with it.
Skylar and Eric did the giant 120 foot dropoff slide this morning while TC and Sheri did some smaller stuff. W O W was that slide fast.
During lunch we had a 10 minute deluge but it cleared right up and we split up again with TC and I hitting 2 different mat slides, the lazy river(where TC caught a few winks), and the wave pool. Sheri and Skylar did the 2nd biggest slide, the Slusher Gusher, and some mat slides too.
We are takig a break for a snack now then headding back to the hotel to change. We are pondering Main Street Disney or Epcot tonight.
Stay tuned for pics on the flickr feed on the left. Not too many today. Hard at the water park.
We caught a break at Thunder Mountain Railroad when a cast member, Adam from Kansas, asked if we wanted to skip the line. Of course we accepted, saving us a 90 minute wait and getting us the best seat on the train. The back…. The kids loved it.
We are fast passed for Splash Mountain at 10:30 after the fireworks. In lone for Pirates of the Carribean no, then Dinner with Peter Pan, pizza, and chicken fingers before the big fireworks show.
After much discussion we have decided to forego an afternoon swim at the resort for Fantasyland, Its A Small World, and Peter Pans Flight. Right now waiting in line for Snow Whites Adventures.
TC is really looking forward to the fireworks tonight. All the Disney employees keep telling us how amazing they are going to be.
