I always have these GREAT plans of blogging our vacation and trying to have a good journal of what we did. I start great and end terribly. EVERY SINGLE TIME. Although much delayed, I WILL get through our entire vacation.
Saturday's stop was to EPCOT. This isn't most people's favorite place, but we have some must do places and we do enjoy it! It's more kid-friendly than most people think, but it's no Magic Kingdom. On our last trip to Disney as a family (January) Burke was 39.999 inches. This meant he was able to ride the 40 inch rides sometimes (star tours was fine the whole trip). Sadly this was not the case when we tried to get him on Test Track. He was DEVASTATED. He stood in place and said "well, fine. I'm not moving until I grow up." (we laughed, he cried.). So we were NOT going to miss it this time. He was so very proud that he was tall enough. Some lady we met downtown Blacksburg last weekend tried to convince me and Burke you shouldn't got o Disney until you are tall enough to do everything. Oh crazy lady how wrong you are!
FINALLY!! Big enough :)
Designing his own car.
Here we go!
As suspected, he loved it! Campbell and I enjoyed the cars and other things GM has set up at the end of the ride. Then we switched and Brian stayed with Campbell and Burke and I went. Burke got to ride twice! Rider swap rocks!
After Test Track, we headed over to see Minnie, Mickey and Pluto for some pictures. Campbell was still traumatized by the Beast so he had a hard time. But I will say, Minnie was great with him and he was much better with her!
After character spot we headed to The Seas with Nemo. The boys enjoyed the ride and LOVED the aquariums. Its no Sea World, but its fun and we got to see dolphins :)
We stopped in the Land for a ride on Soarin. Campbell and I road the boat ride while the big boys did Soarin. Rider swap didn't work out on this ride because the Fast Pass line was way too long. I gave up my turn and opted for lunch. The land has the BEST quick service on property and we always try to eat there. After lunch we rode Spaceship Earth (one of Burke's favorites) and headed back to the room for a swim and rest!
Since we were staying on property with the biggest pool, we couldn't resist a trip to the Nemo pool. The splash area was fun but the pool was a huge hit! The boys loved being in the water and were not pleased when it was time to go! We had the normal afternoon nap before heading to dinner at 'Ohana. 'Ohana is inside the Polynesian and easily our FAVORITE restaurant on property. All you can eat family style and grilled meat galore. Whats not to love? I can't say the service was awesome this visit but the food is always great.
After dinner, we couldn't miss the chance to go to MK and ride the Buzz ride. After a quick trip, we headed to the room for BED! Another fun day!!
