I woke up early today, around 6 am, so after my shower I drove to Wynne Dixie for groceries. I picked up cereal, yogurt, cheese, crackers, cookies, ice tea, milk and juice boxes. Last night Linnea had rice crispies from the market at our food court. I did the math and it worked out to over $25 pound. Ok, that's fillet Mignon prices. Plus the food court in the morning is just too crazy. So for the most part, we had breakfast in the room.
Linnea wanted to go to Epcot today, so the two of us headed in pretty early. Glen stayed back in the room to get some work done....we had planned to meet around 10 am.
Linnea and I got fast passes for Soarin' then went to the Living Seas to ride on Nemo. Linnea didn't want to do Turtle Talk with Crush because she was feeling shy. On our way to Imagination we were getting hungry, so we stopped and shared a pretzel. We called Glen, and he was just pulling into the parking lot at Epcot, so Linnea and I used our Soarin' fast passes and met Glen outside the attraction. Then the three of us got fast passes for later.
I had swung by guest services in the morning, and with the exception of Canada, all the sit downs had availability. We made ressies at Coral Reef for 1:30 but walked in around noon and they were able to take us early. I was surprised how empty the restaurant was at noon. I had the mahi mahi, Glen had the Talapia, and Linnea had the mac and cheese.
The three of us went on Soarin' after lunch. There was a party of 18 that for some weird reason had to be seated together and it made the process rather messy. I don't get it? The only people you notice on this attraction are the ones sitting right next to you....and even then you're not paying attention to them. Why do you have to keep such a large group together?
We did the newly updated Spaceship Earth and LOVED the new enhancements. I laughed so hard at the interactive cartoons....Linnea and Glen sat next to each other and their pictures were just hilarious.
Some really nasty weather moved in with rain and wind so we opted to go back to the hotel early. Glen and Linnea went to the food court for dinner. Glen had a grilled salmon that he still raves about. Linnea had chicken nuggets. I just snacked on cheese and crackers since I was still pretty full from lunch.
