2 weeks of heaven... 13: MK & Hollywood Studios

Last full day

We had booked the 8am shuttle to the TTC. Today was a Magic Kingdom day, we got the boat over for the first and last time.








We waited and got to see the opening show again, but by the time we got there it was already starting. When we walked in I saw that the Tinkerbelle meet was just opening so I made us go in there!
We waited for a few minutes and went straight in.



Then we were ready for a ride and went straight to the Little Mermaid which was a walk on. We went straight round to meet her after the ride.

Lewis didn't get his photo taken (not that he wanted to) but the CMs just assumed he wouldn't want to, I bet the Ariel is sick of men going in and getting photos with her in next to nothing!

After this we went over to Philharmagic for the second time this holiday! This was one of my favourite attractions in MK.




We had stayed in Fantasyland as we had a FP for Peter Pan. We definitely needed a FP for this, it was hardly 10am and it was a ridiculous line already. We walked straight on.

When we came off we headed towards Haunted Mansion when we saw a queue on the other side of the park with a CM holding a sign "memento mori". We had no idea what this was at the time but queued up anyway?! It could have been anything! We went in after queuing for about 2 mins and realised it was the new Haunted Mansion shop! The queue got really long later in the day we were happy we got to have a look but we didn't buy anything as it was really over priced.

Then we carried on our original plan of Haunted Mansion.



We weren't really sure what to do next so we had a wander and saw Chip and Dale so waited for that for about 10 mins


Then we did a couple of things on our list that didn't have queues- Tiki room and Country Bear Jamboree. We were starting to realise we were getting things done really quickly and wanted to head to another park in the afternoon. We had a FP booked for late afternoon for the Mine train so we cancelled this and rebooked it for the magic carpets. Good job too as it was a silly wait time for not an amazing ride. We went on it after the Tiki Room, then had a look around the Swiss family treehouse.

It was boiling, so we walked over to Splash Mountain to see the wait time. 60 mins! No thank you. Luckily we had a FP for Thunder Mountain so we walked straight onto that. It was longer than expected which was a bonus!

As we were in the area we decided on Pecos Bill for lunch. We both had bacon cheese burgers (Lewis had a double)



That was us done at MK We were feeling deflated and just wanted to leave, we had fit a lot in to the morning and decided to have a look in some shops on the way out, and got the bus to Hollywood Studios.

This was pretty much the only photos we have of this afternoon. We went to see the Little Mermaid as we had missed it previously. We were one of the last to walk in but got a seat in the front row in the middle.

We then had a look around the art of Disney shop as Lewis had wanted to buy a souvenir. He settled on a Jack Skellington disney traditions and that started off a bit of an obsession as he has that one, and I now have 8!

We also queued for a bit to meet the Incredibles but realised how tired we are. We had booked the shuttle back to the hotel at MIDNIGHT! We were so up for a long day in the parks to be able to cram lots in, but we were realising we couldn't do it. We tried to ring the shuttle company but couldn't work out how the phones worked so decided to just go back to the TTC on the off chance they would let us on. They made us feel really stupid for getting there early, we knew we were early and we asked them nicely and said if it was a problem we would go back to the parks until it was our turn. But they made us sit and wait for about 40 mins while they waited for another couple who luckily never turned up and we got to go in their space

Back to the hotel, but the other people on the bus were looking at us like we were evil! It was about 6pm.
Once back to the hotel I relaxed and watched TV while Lewis went to the Gym. He goes almost every day at home so think he was having withdrawal symptoms!

We then had a wander up I Drive and decided on Uno for dinner.
