July 10 ~ Day 5 part 1

The plan was to hit the MK up early for the EMH, but alas, if you know me, you know that didn't happen. We got up and ready and left the WL by about 8:00..... so you know, we tried.....

We went out to catch the boat.....but the boat was pulling away. So we decided to hop on the Contemporary Boat. We're the kind of people who hate to wait and we'd rather be moving and feel like we're getting somewhere quicker than stand still and wait......... So who knows... the boat from the MK may have come back and gotten those folks that waited over before us, but we didn't know that

Once at the CR we hopped on the express monorail and we were through the gates in no time. It was about 15 - 20 minutes till 9:00 and we were able to just go right in. I didn't see anybody with wristbands....do they give those out at am EMH? (again, this lazy bum wouldn't know

We made a pit stop to have our picture made with Horace and Clarabell (a first for us). After that we headed straight over to Tomorrowland to share a sweet cream cheeze pretzel. We fell in love with that thing back in Dec. and it was a must for this trip.

We had grabbed FP's for Buzz before our yummy and oh so delish breakfast so we walked right on into Space Mountain. Gotta love when there is NOBODY in line and you just have to feel your way through there..... I can't see a thing in there and with me being the klutz that we all know I am, I have to walk and hold on to both hand rails We were on our ride in no time and I still get a little freaked out on that ride. I find myself ducking my head down lower and lower each time we ride in fear it's gonna get clocked one day...

After that we still had time before our Buzz FP's were good.... a LOT of time... we spotted Stitch and I had to go visit (DUH). We got some cute photos (which I will post when I get home). Then we went for a ride on the TTA... "Now entering...Mickey's Star Traders"... I that ride now

Once we returned to earth we decided to take off again and use our Buzz FP's. If I remember correctly, I kicked Andy's tail He may have a different story....

After Buzz I had to get in on my Stitch So all you SGE naysayers can skip this part I headed to our usual spot once inside. I've learned where to sit to get a full maximum Stitch encounter, spit and all

When we came out into the gift shop I noticed him busting down through the ceiling. At first we thought it was new, but after talking to Angie she says it's been there and we're just not observant people........

The CM working the gift shop saw my birthday button (yes I wear it everyday until my actual bday....shame on me). She filled out a dream card for me and calligraphy'd it. It's very impressive

After our time in Tomorrowland we headed over to the other side of the park. We sat through our first experience with the Tiki Birds. It was very cute I must say Then we went with Splash. I was so afraid it'd be packed to the max over there but I was very surprised to see that it wasn't. Granted there was the mass BTG (thanks Sharon!) getting their horde of FP's for Splash rather than waiting in the 10 min. long line that really wasn't even that long once you got in there. No front this time... : We opted for the back this time

After we visited our lauging place we headed over and got right on BTMRR. Again I was pleasantly surprised with NO WAIT It was great! And I still love "bahh'ing" at the ram.

By now it was only around 11, something like that. We had a 1:10 ADR at CRT so we decided we'd go ride the train since that was another something we had never done before. It was a nice, relaxing time to just sit and ride around the park. We took the whole loop around and got off back at Main Street. After that we still had time left before our ADR so we decided to go look at our Photopass photos. Then we just chilled in the rocking chairs and watched Pinocchio, J. Worthington Foulfellow and Gideon all meet and greet.

I'm going to stop here b/c it's time to go home.... I completely forgot we had a meeting and I just got back from it and now it's time to go!
See ya when I get home
