November
We
had a really late start due to the party last night (how old do we sound?!)
When we did eventually get up Rob did some ironing as most of my tops had been
returned quite crinkled. Boring stuff done and we headed to Hollywood Studios
for our last park day of the trip.
We
decided to get an early lunch at Backlot Express, we both had the turkey
sandwich although in hindsight we should have shared one. I had booked all of
our fast passes for the afternoon/evening and due to the irritating tiering we
had picked Toy Story over Rock n Rollercoaster.
We
decided to see what the standby wait was for Rock n Rollercoaster, it was posted
as 60 minutes but we decided to get in line anyway. We entertained ourselves in
the line using our phones and our actual wait was about 45 minutes so not too
bad. The ride tends to bash my head a little bit but I still love the launch at
the start :)
We
took a leisurely wander across the park and decided to watch Muppetvision, I
think I was expecting something a little more like Philharmagic but it was
still cute. We continued our wandering and stopped to watch the little Jedi’s training;
I so wish I could do this but I’m too old :(
We
took a quick break in the Backlot Express for a drink before it was time for
our Star Tours FP. The wait time was around 30 mins so it wasn’t too much of a
waste, this ride is really clever and we like all of the different sequences.
In
preparation for the cooler evening we popped back to the car to collect our
jumpers along with my Minnie ears and Rob’s lights.
By
the time we got back it was almost time for our Toy Story FP. I really tried my
hardest but Rob still beat me :( We then had a little wait before our dinner
reservation at Sci Fi so we watched a little bit of the pre show for the
Osborne lights.
We
checked in for our dinner and it turned out that they were closing earlier than
normal (I think it was connected to the Wine and Dine half marathon). We were
seated in the middle of a car between 2 other couples; I ordered the turkey
sandwich with fries and Rob had the picnic burger. He started to feel full so
he didn’t eat all of his burger as he wanted a dessert.
I
had the candy bar for dessert and Rob had a sundae I think. After dinner we
took a quick wander through the Osbourne lights before our final FP of the day.
So,
having saved the best ride for last we went across to Tower of Terror for a
spooky ride :) We decided to turn off our lights so as not to spoil the ride
for everyone, it was brilliant as normal!
We
were going to leave after ToT but in the end decided to go back and watch the
lights some more; we decided to try and track down all of the hidden Mickey’s –
as a result I have loads of photos of the lights!
We ended up staying until the
last time the lights danced for the evening before heading back to our room.
