By day 5, even though kids and parents are going to bed at 9:30pm latest we are all exhausted. When you're on your first trip in many years, staying on site on luxury accommodations you kind of feel like you need to do everything you can because you've paid so much for everything. After all this was our most expensive vacation so far...
We got up a bit later, took time having breakfast and arrived at the park around 9:30am. Tried getting a fast pass for Toy Story around 10am and quickly learned that was too late. Next slot was around 3pm and that was just too late! We didn't want to spend all day at that park. We did the PlayHouse Disney live on stage. Kids loved that. Puppets of their favorite shows singing and dancing.
We also went to a few shows, walked around and had lunch with the characters of Little Einsteins. Headed to Epcot later that day and went to the Seas with Nemo and friends and Turtle Talk with Crush. Dinner was in Downtown Disney at the Rainforest Cafe. At this point there was a tropical storm lingering somewhere nearby and it was drizzling all day. I kept wishing we had proper rain jackets and boots. It wasn't the regular afternoon shower. It was annoying cold fine rain all day!
Day 6: Animal Kingdom
My husband had to leave early to catch a plane that day for a sailing regatta and I stayed back with my 4 and 2 year old! Luckily the other family friends were there so I spent the day with them at Animal Kingdom.
We started by having breakfast at Tusker House. It was incredible. There was so much food, huge variety and the characters were so much fun. Kids got to dance around with them!
It was raining again all day so we went to see the Nemo concert, which is amazing. It's like being on Broadway, only for a shorter show (about 40 minutes). We did the Safari as well, the Lion King show and a few other things.
Back to Saratoga Springs and next day we packed and our Disney Bus picked us up at 11am. It was very sad to say bye to Disney. I left already thinking of planning the next vacation...
At the airport the line was worse than Disney. Had to wait a whole hour at American Airlines to check in. And that was alone with 2 little kids. Made me miss Brazil where it's law that anyone pregnant, with little kids, senior or disabled jumps to the front of the line at airports/grocery stores, etc...
See you soon Disney!
