Re: Our first Holiday Trip to WDW (Day 3 Added)

<font color="blue"> Part 1 - Epcot </font>

We slept in this morning. After we woke up, we called our friends Josh &amp; Kelly who we had met on the cruise the week before. They were staying at a timeshare in Orlando until Thursday. We asked them what their plans were for this evening and they said they didn't have any. I told them about MVMCP and they said it sounded great. I called Disney and confirmed that tonight's party was not sold out. So Josh &amp; Kelly decided to go and we made plans to meet at Liberty Tree Tavern at 4:45pm (the same time &amp; location as the Passporter meet).

We decided to head over to Epcot and walk through Future World. We grabbed some breakfast from the food court. Savannah &amp; I shared some beignets **YUM** and Lee had a breakfast platter with scrambled eggs, hash browns, and sausage. We drove over to Epcot. The first attraction we went to was Spaceship Earth because Savannah always asks if we can go in "the big ball". After that we headed over toward Test Track. Savannah is tall enough for that now too. The stand-by wait time said 30 minutes but it ended up only being about 15 minutes. Savannah absolutely loved Test Track!!! She of course wanted to go again so we grabbed some fastpasses and headed over to Mission:Space to check out the wait time. There was no wait. While Lee went on MS (his favorite attraction at WDW) I kept Savannah busy by waiting a few minutes in line for her to meet Space Mickey and Space Goofy - they were so cute in their little astronaut costumes!


While we waited for Lee to get off MS, we went in the gift shop and I bought him a MS pin for his lanyard and a really cool MS baseball cap. Lee came off the ride grinning from ear to ear, as usual

We headed back over to Test Track and had an ice cream while we waited for our Fastpass window to open up. We could see the stand-by line had gotten pretty long by this point. The fastpass line had no wait so when it was our turn we walked right on - God bless fastpass! After our second ride on Test Track we headed back to the hotel for naps so we would be refreshed for MVMCP tonight.
