Day 5 - Time to go home.....

Hey, wait, not, yet!!! We still have all day to play since we don't leave our resort until 5:00!!! Yippee!!

So, since we had all day, we headed back to Magic Kingdom. There were a couple of things we didn't get to do the first go around, so they were top on our list. First, we headed to Dumbo. There was a small line, and before long we were flying away! Next up was Ariel's Grotto! Funny thing, we had got in line for this our first night, but the line was not moving at all, so we got out of line. Well, when we got in line this time, we were in the exact same spot!! So we said that in 3 days, the line had not moved at all!!! LOL! Then, of course, once we finally get to the front of the line, like 30 minutes later, and were the next to see Ariel, she had to take a break! Figures! But, we got to see her, and Emyley was so excited! She wore her Ariel shirt and the Ariel necklace she bought! And Ariel interacted really well with the girls! It was so sweet!

We rode a few rides again in Fantasyland, including Dumbo which had no line, and then we got on the Liberty Square Riverboat. I grabbed the last seat and just rested my feet the whole ride. I love riverboats, they are so relaxing! The girls, of course, wanted to go up and down every flight of stairs. Luckily, Bill was up for it! LOL!

Next, we headed to lunch at Pecos Bill's Cafe. It was barely 11:00, and already it was crowded! That was the only downfall about eating this whole trip....it was packed no matter where we went! The food was good, though and we hung out in the air conditioning for a bit. Next stop, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad....what, broke down, again?!?! We decided to get fast passes, but I figured we wouldn't make it back over there again, and I was right. Boo-hoo. It is the only roller coaster that I like to ride, so I was pretty bummed. The girls didn't care, they just wanted to hop on Splash Mountain and get soaked. But, I couldn't handle us being gross all day with no way to change before we went home, so we didn't get to do that, either.

We decided to just head over to Tomorrowland. The girls wanted to do Buzz Lightyear again, and of course the Transit Authority! We like to live on the edge! LOL!! We managed to slip right in to Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor, which was a pretty cute show that interacted with the audience. After a little browsing in one of the gift shops over there, we headed to Buzz and walked right on! Next we split up since Hayley wanted to go on the Carousel of Progress again and Bill wanted to do Stitch's Great Escape. Em went with Bill and I had Hayley and Syd. We met up right outside the entrace to the Transit Authority, so we hopped on. While we were on it, we saw Stitch doing autographs and pictures!! We hurried over, and the girls got to meet him. Bill asked for a picture with him, and Stitch gave him a big hug!! It was sooo funny!!

It was pretty much time to head to Main Street, so we could do our little bit of shopping. We stopped off in Casey's Corner to use up the rest of our dining credits and to rest up. Casey's Corner is at the end of the Main Stree Emporium which is full of shops. It runs continuously from one corner of main street to the other, which was great since everyone was lining up for the parade outside on Main Street. Bill started getting a headache, so I quickly ran through the shops to grab a couple things. And then we left the park. :o(
A little preface for this slide show.....
We were worried that we had not taken very many pictures,
so we pretty much clicked away all day! There are a lot here, so be patient and enjoy!!!
