It's Erin's Night
After lunch we decided to head back to the resort to relax a bit since our 5am wake up call this morning took a lot out of us. Erin did her usual laying by the pool while I crashed hard in the cold AC room. You can never complain about a solid 2 hour nap. Then it was off to AK for the night.
We were off to the bus stop around 4:30. While doing my usual disney planning months prior to this trip we made this day Erin’s day. She had a few things she wanted to do while in Disney, one of them being eat at satuli canteen. Since she picked lunch this day and dinner, it obviously became Erin’s day. So while we were waiting for the bus both Kiss and Erin asked what our plan was when we got there since we didn’t have FPs. “I don’t know Erin its your day what do you want to do?” She was unimpressed with the idea but I made sure I was sticking too it.
We arrived at AK around 5pm and were ready to conquer the night.
First stop of Erin’s night…FotLK.
We hopped in the stand by line and kept a lookout for BFF brittany who was on her way to join us. And honestly it is always great to be reunited with one of your best friends. The reunion didn’t last too long before we started headed into the theater. Tonight we headed for the elephant section.
Once the show started we noticed right away that there was no princess. I have never experienced a show without one of the main singers not there. But right away I volunteered as tribute to sing those harmonies during Can You Feel The Love Tonight.
With one person down we were all anxious to see if anyone else would be missing…more importantly if all monkeys would be performing. And with our luck our favorite one was there.
Even without one of the main singers the show was 10 out of 10
Once getting out of the theater we found Brittany’s boyfriend Joe waiting out front. Then we were off to Pandora to get some dinner at Erin’s choice of Satuli.
It was rice bowls all around because its the best option on the menu.
Tonight I went with the rice bowl with chicken and creamy herb sauce and it was so magical when Erin got her herb sauce on the side because she doesn’t use it. More deliciousness for me. I was torn because I oddly wanted to try the green beer but was afraid I wouldn’t like it so I went with the safer option and got the pandora sangria.
Erin also got the sangria to get her moneys worth but she didn’t end up liking it, so Brittany was more than happy to finish it for her (this was a start of a new thing for the two of them)
As we waited for our food Erin learned a new trick done by the quick service CMs. There are those who will rip your receipt or scratch the paper with their nail. The scratching trick caught Erins eye and it was all she did at the table. Who knew playing in ink would be so fun?
After dinner it was what should we do? I had to remind everyone it was Erin’s night. So only Erin could decide. With her just standing there awkwardly saying she didn’t know what to do there was Brittany “Did you say death ride, prime evil whirl? Perfect lets go”
So off to the other side of the park we go! When we got to Dinoland the chipmunks were out at their dance party and they are super cute in their dino costume. We stopped to watch for a bit before we jumped in line for Prime Evil Whirl. This is always the ride where your like what a short line, but immediately regret it once getting on.
We made it out alive and we were back on the go. At this point we were just walking to walk, and then we found ourselves at Everest.
