Life at Disney World Part II

DAY FOUR

Friday we enjoyed the day at Epcot. The first thing we did was Mission Space. We tried the Green team first, which is less intense and then since there was no wait time we went back and did the Orange team. I guess they must spin you around really fast to make it feel like you are going through space, your face pulls back. It’s funny. We also took advantage of the Fast Pass for the Test Track. During our wait we had lunch at a Pub in Great Britain and we both had great Fish & Chips. We then walked through the World Showcase. It is pretty cool that you do walk from one country to the next. We went on a couple of little rides to cool off in the hot sun.

Test Track is a pretty cool ride. It is really jerky and you go really really fast. I wish I had worn my sunglasses on it because you are going over 60 mph outside and I couldn’t open my eyes. It was a little strange because they have the camera for the ride at the end after you have gone through everything and for some reason I have a confused look on my face at the end. We also did the Nemo tour. My favorite part is when you get off the ride and you can walk around the aquarium they have there. They even had some dolphins! We were going to go on the Soarin’ Ride but it was too long of a wait that we didn’t really want to stand in so maybe we will try again. J

For dinner we went to Downtown Disney to Fulton’s Crab House. Oh my goodness!! That food was amazing! We shared calamari for an appetizer and they were strips and they were so great! They also give a house appetizer of a crab dip that was really good. They even gave everyone the recipe of the dip at their table, which was awesome! I had Alaskan King Crab Claws and Australian Lobster Tail. I haven’t had such great food in a long time! A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!! Ray had Beef of Oscar (steak with crab and a béarnaise sauce) and it was also extremely good! We again got dessert…I had New York Cheesecake that was served with both mango and raspberry sauces on the side. I actually loved the mango sauce with the cheesecake…gave me an idea for a new flavor! J Ray had the Key Lim Pie and he loved it. We definitely had plenty to eat that night! J

After dinner we walked around Downtown Disney and went to some of the shops. The World of Disney store was huge! This store was the size of one block and was full of all Disney! It was great! Then we went to the Winnie the Pooh store…only it wasn’t just Winnie the Pooh, there was quite a bit of other items. We also saw a sign for all the pet items you need and it didn’t have any other pet items that any of the other stores had so that was pretty disappointing. But it was fun to hang out in Downtown Disney!

DAY FIVE

We again slept in…this time until 12:30!! Haha! It was nice to sleep in! We definitely enjoyed it! J We ended up going to Hollywood Studios to watch some of the shows that we had missed previously. Due to timing of the shows we ended up only being able to see one show and we went to Indiana Jones’ Stunt Spectacular. It was pretty fun and a cool show; it just really showed how fake movies really are! We then tried to go to the Roller Coaster that features Aerosmith but the line was over an hour long and it really didn’t seem worth the wait. We just really don’t like lines! J

We decided to go back to Downtown Disney for dinner. We waited for a bus for over 30 minutes and the line was so long that we finally just got on a bus to Animal Kingdom then got a bus from there to Port Orleans. It was pretty fun to check out another hotel. From Port Orleans we took a boat into Downtown. We had dinner at Wolfgang Puck Express. That was pretty fun! I saw all of my pots and pans hanging around the restaurant! J We both had pastas and both were very good! We sat on the patio and had fun people watching! J

After dinner we did some more shopping! (of course) We went to the kitchen store and I found some Minnie and Mickey shaped pasta! And if you know us at all, you know we eat A LOT of pasta! J We also got some more goodies at the World of Disney store! We then walked all the way through Downtown into Pleasure Island and the Westside. Downtown Disney was huge! It was fun to check out all the fun stores! There was a store that was all magnets! We stopped at the Virgin Megastore and I was looking at a camera and an alarm started going off. I thought it was the front door but apparently when I picked up the camera I somehow jiggled the wire to make the alarm go off! Oops! We were pretty tired this night so we didn’t stay out too late.
