16th June
This morning we needed to buy a few things so headed
to the shops again.
First up was Best Buy to get a go pro mount and case.
Then we went back to the outlets to pick up a few things including a bargain
hoody (2015) from the character warehouse for $7.95.
We had also realised that we needed another suitcase
to fit some of our bulky items in, not a major problem as we were flying World
Traveller Plus home so we got a new one at Walmart for $63.
We dropped the shopping back at the hotel then went to
the TTC to park. Got there and realised we had forgotten the Go Pro and we
really wanted to test it out…so back to the hotel again!
I rearranged our FP slightly on the trip so that we
didn’t miss anything out.
We finally arrived at the Magic Kingdom at around 4pm
and our first FP was a favourite…..Haunted Mansion quickly followed by the
Pirates of the Caribbean.
We were getting hungry so got some food at Pinocchios
Village Haus; I had a salad and Rob had a flatbread and we shared some fries.
There was a short but extremely heavy shower whilst we were in the restaurant.
We did manage to check in for our flight and select
our seats together without paying. Once the rain we continued around the park,
we had to change the plan as the rain (and potential thunder) had stopped the
outdoor rides for a while.
We took a quick spin on the peoplemover while we
waited and then headed back to the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train to use our FP once
it reopened.
We then booked a 4th FP for Buzz Lightyear
for 7.25 and as we had a little bit of time we decided to experience the
Monsters Inc Laugh Floor for the first time.
It killed some time but I don’t think I will be back
soon….! After our ride on Buzz we needed a snack so I got an ice cream sandwich
and Rob had a frozen lemonade..
We had booked another FP (5) for a little while after
at the Tomorrowland Speedway, Rob made me drive so that he could use the Go Pro
and amazingly I got around relatively smoothly!
We booked another FP (6) for Splash Mountain for 9.05
and took advantage of a short wait to ride It’s a Small World on the way.
After Splash we got a FP (7) for Big Thunder Mountain
at 9.20 and then headed to Main Street to watch Wishes, selecting a FP (8) for
Space Mountain for after the show.
Wishes was brilliant as always and then we managed to
get through the scrum to Tomorrowland to use our FP to ride Space Mountain.
We then got a final (completely pointless) FP for Buzz
before finishing our Disney ride experience with the Peoplemover.
As we walked out of the park we took a quick look in
one of the stores and somehow I ended leaving with a Haunted Mansion Dooney
& Bourke bag which I had been admiring since we saw it last week in the
World of Disney!
We once again took the resort monorail and arrived
back at our room at around midnight.
