DVC4us -> Anniversary Trip part 2 (9/3/2008 10:24:23 PM)

Tuesday August12
EPCOT
woke-up early ,had a leisurely breakfast over looking LBV golf course! We got to the park about 11;15A.M. and quickly got our FP's for Soarin' Called Jodi and played teletag. On to Innoventions then to Mexico.  A light rain started falling on our way to Norway, Visited the Stave Church exhibit.Followed by a quick trip to Germany for the long-awaited pretzel&beer!! the rain had quit,so we sat and people watched for awhile. Next up was American Adventure and lunch in Morocco.  Hubby had the lunchbox special and I had couscous and marinated olives. We split the baklava...Oh my it just melted on your tongue!
A ride on the FriendShip was next on the agenda,landing in Canada. Did alittle shopping at MouseGear,then on to Ellen's Energy Adventure. Finally it was time for Soarin'!! Afterwards my realized I had missed Jodi's call,they were on their way to Downtown! We had a great time playing teletag,and got tickled by the messages we left!
A trip to find Nemo at the Sea,we enjoyed the changes and the clam mobiles! EMH night,so after a dinner of fish-n-chips we got banded,and watched Illuminations from the bridge.
Strolled over to test track,but it had 80minutes stand-by...No Way! we just went in the exhibit area and visited the new car displays.
Back to Norway for a ride on Malestrom,and a trip to Kringla's for tomarrow's breakfast.
g'night tomarrow we visit AK

Didn't get to Animal Kingdom til1035! Once we got through the gates we went straight back to EE. Since we had a bit of a wait we went on to Dinosaur50minute standby. It actually was only 50 minutes! Followed by Primeval Whirl. We got in line for the next show of Finding Nemo(sets were beautiful). EE here we come[8|]this ride.Lunchtime at Flametree,BBQbeef for hubby,bbq pork for me,we split an order of onionrings.Since I carry crystal light pink lemonade packets,I just order a cup of wateer(at$2.00 a cup of soda this really saves). A stroll through some shops then on to "Bug's Life" and on to catch a bus ride home. We watched as the skies darkened,but nothing happened.
Back to the villa for supper,then a "romantic"ferry ride to downtown. Did some Christmas shopping,visited Giradelli's for a free sample(peanut butter/milk chocalate)Basin,andWorld of Disney.
Noticed the lightening getting more intense mentioned to hubby"we should be heading back" got to the ferries....Closed due to Inclement weather! The skies just opened up and before you could say "Jack Sparrow",we were drenched to our skivvies! Finally caught a bus home and were ever soo glad to hit the jaccuzzi tub!
Tomarrow -our last day

Thursday we spent our last day at MK,despite the rain. Sure glad I packed the jacket that folds into a pouch! Got to ride a few favorites,Space Mt. down when our FP's were due,so we went to Cosmic Ray's for lunch. Saw some Dream Team members leving as we walked in!Went back and SMt. was up and running again!
Walked through the rose garden by the Castle,saw some gorgeous yellow roses! Tried to take some pix,unfortunately somebody's thumb was in the way...oops!Last ride on PoC then made our way back to OKW,as we had ADR's for Olivia's. The prime rib was perfect,but we were too full for any dessert[:-]did a little shopping, then a nice stroll back to the villa,to finish packing,  our vacation was over.[sm=babycry.gif]We left a wake-up call for 0230,think I fell asleep about midnight.ME whisked us away to MCO around 0315,think we were too sleepy to notice much.
Hopefully we'll be back in the Spring!

I love Illuminations.  I cry every time I see it.  What a big baby I am, right?
