We decided that this day was going to be reserved for just World Showcase and the Phineas and Ferb missions. We were going to sleep in since we stayed up fairly late the night before. That plan works for everyone but me....
I just can't seem to sleep late at Disney so instead I got up and sat out on our balcony again. I LOVED having a balcony on this trip.
Being within walking distance of Epcot also became VERY convenient on this trip. Even with us "sleeping in" this morning, we were dressed and walking into Epcot at the late morning hour of.... 9:22 a.m.!!! That would have never happened if we stayed at a resort where we had to catch a bus.
All smiles!! Happy to be able to try Phineas and Ferb!
Also all smiles and hoping to go play in the Mission Space play area....
We stopped off in Canada for some pictures on our way to Future World.
We were at the park so early that even the ducks were still asleep.
What to ride....what to ride......we were early enough to be able to grab fastpasses for something if we wanted to. What should we get? Soarin? Test Track? We decided to get TT and DH took off to get us the FPs while I waited here....
I waited for what felt like forever and finally DH called to let me know that TT was closed for some reason with no FPs available. So I turned around and viewed the sign behind me to see about getting Soarin FPs but those were already at mid afternoon so I decided to just try my luck with TT later on in the morning. We ended up crossing the park to meet DH at the other Innoventions. (I don't know which one is East or which one is West but we were at the one with Sum of All Thrills.)
DS11 who is TERRIFIED of storms decided that he wanted to go in ......
"Are you sure?" I asked. He said that yes he really wanted to see what it was so he and I went in while DS7 (who was afraid) and DH kept walking.
It wasn't NEARLY as bad as I thought it would be and it was fun for him since it was a quiz. (Yes I know, he's a smarty pants.)
Our score wasn't the greatest but we had a great time!
When we were done, I found DH who wanted to ride.....
so he got in line and we went to check on TT.
Holy smokes, Batman!!! I think it's open. Seriously?!?!? Do you see that line?!?!? That's like a 3000 minute wait from here at Innoventions!
I'm not even sure that all of those people knew what they were waiting for!!
I did not wait! I told the boys to stay put and I ran to get FPs (o.k. I might have walked really fast instead....).
Random picture of the Cool Wash on our way to.......
Yes First Aid. I haven't much about this in my TR, actually not even sure I've ever mentioned it but the rains (which you haven't seen in my pictures because my camera is NOT water proof) were beginning to mess with my feet. Having constantly wet shoes and sandals had rubbed some of the skin off of my toes on the underside which made walking difficult. Wait til you see the contraption I created for my big toe later in my TR!!!
Anyways, sad as it may sound I needed ointment and a bandaid. I walked right in and the ladies there were VERY nice and helpful. I just had to sign in and right away I got exactly what I needed. Soon we were off on our way back to meet DH.
I got back to Innoventions and couldn't find DH. Finally I spotted him at the top of Sum of All Thrills waiting for his ride. Sad thing is he waited ALL that time and couldn't ride the ride. The bars would not go down far enough on him to snap. He was frustrated. I asked why he had not tried the "model seat' and pointed it out. In typical male fashion, he said, "I never saw that."
Ahh well, we moved on.
The boys were begging to do one of their Future World favorites -
That's right folks! We come all the way to Disney JUST to be able to play learning games!
Isn't he the cutest?!?!?
My sweet partner in saving and our pig! We saved for our next Disney vacation of course!
He is always so serious about it.
DH and DS7 were saving for a bedroom make-over. First time he has ever picked something other than Disney.
It's so stressful saving money!! Love the Mickey Heads in the stool.
With our money safe from the evil fox, we were able to head on. We had one more mission before our TT fastpasses. What would our MISSION be?
