some pics from WDW. March 12 we went to Epcot and it was raining. Good thing we didnt get there till around 4. We went to Club Cool and tried some Different types of Coke, and then went to the Journey into Imagination building. We ate at the Rose and crown Pub. Our waitress was Harriet. She was very friendly even tho she screwed up our bill. We watched the Illuminations as the rain had finally cleared up. We then got to ride Soarin, and went to Turtle Talk with Crush and looked thru bthe whole Living Seas building. Tanner got to ask Crush a question... He asked him what kind of Fish he like to eat. It was pretty funny as he didnt know waht to say, then ended up saying Fish are freinds not food. Then asked Tanner what his favorite food was.. and Tanner said Fish sticks! Crush then called for security! We left and got to the hotel around 11.
On March 13 we went to Epcot agian. We rode Test Track right away. it was pretty fun! We also checked out the other parts of Future world. We rode on Spaceship Earth. We chose not to ride Mission Space as we heard it was am intense ride! Tanner also got his pic taken with Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto and Goofy! We then walked around the countries and Tanner bought a passport and got it stamped and signed at each station in each country. He also did some shopping. He wanted to buy something in every counrty. Mom and I did the Pick a peral in Japan. She got twin pearls in her clam! Mine was a 7 1/4. We had them set in settings there as well. We then ate at Le Celliar in Canada! The food was EXCELLENT! I would eat there again for sure. Creme Burlee was awesome and so was the Beer Cheese soup!
On March 14 we went to Hollywood Studios. Tanner got his pic taken with a green army man, Buzz, Woody, Lighting and Mater! We also rode Toy Story twice. Rick and I rode on Rockin Roller Coaster, while Grandma and Papa took Tanner to Playhouse Disney. We watched the parade, and the Lights Motor Action Stunt Show. Tanner really liked that one. We went to the Muppets 3-D and for lunch ate at Pizza Planet. For dinner we went to 50s Prime time Cafe. We had the best waiter.. Cousin Cooper. He played his part well! He got mad at Rick for not saying please, Mom and Dad for elbows on the table, and really gave mom guff when she didnt eat her corn. I did hear it for not eating the green beans aslo! He was funny!
On March 15 we went to the Magic Kingdom. We ate at Chef Mickeys for Breakfast and the celebrated Dads Birthday. They swung napkins around and had fun singing. Tanner just giggled and giggled. Tanner really liked Big Thunder Mountain. He also got to ride Splash Mountain. We did get "stuck" on it... and sat in a couple different parts for a bit. We rode on the Jungle Cruise and Tanner, Papa and Rick rode on the Carpets of Alladin. Then we went to Fantasyland.. where it was a ZOO! we waited in line for 45 min to ride Dumbo! We dodged out of there and went to Tommorrowland. We rode SpaceRanger Spin, Laugh Floor the TTA and the Grand Prix Cars. My car didnt want to go very fast and Dad was trying to bump me! We ate at Tonys Town Square for dinner. It was OK. Not bad..but not awesome either. Mom and Dad thenleft to the resort. We stayed and waited for the fireworks and the night time parade. Tanner watched the parade but fell asleep right before they started. They were really cool. He woke up and watched a bit.
On March 16 we hung out at the hotel in the AM. Jeannette and Al came and visited for awhile. Tanner showed them all the cool things at the resort. We had a snack at the food court as well. We then went to Downtown Disney and Disney Qwest. Tanner did some major shopping, had a meltdown in the toy store. He spent most of his monies at the Lego store! It was pretty big! We ate at Wolfgang Pucks Express.. SUPER awesome counter service! Grandma and Papa took Tanner back to resort and we did a bit more shopping! Went to Goofys Candy Store! It was smaller then I thought it would be.
On March 17 we went to Animal Kingdom. We had a Character breakfast at Tusker House. We then went on the Safari ride.. it was so bumpy! We did get to see alot of animals and some at pretty close range. Its hard to take pics tho becuase of the bumpiness. and walked thru alot of the exhibts. Saw the tigers and Gorillas. Tanner got his pic with jimmy Cricket, and Rafiki. We got to see an owl up close as well. It looked like the Owl from Harry Potter. Tanner loved the Boneyard.. a big playground and dig site. We then went on the "flying" Dinosaurs. When we were done we wnt back to the resort and hung out for awhile. We then went to Planet Hollywood for dinner.
It was not fun trying to pack the luggage. I had to take the legos out of their boxes and repack in Ziplock bags! They didnt weigh over 50 tho!
On March 18.... the last day... we went back to the Magic Kingdom and did some favorites, Big Thunder Mountain. Tanner got to do Space Ranger Spin and Laugh Floor again while we went on Space Mountain. Rick and I went on Its a small world and Haunted Mansion while Tanner and Papa rode the Merry go round. We headed back to the resort and had some lunch there. We then waited for the bus to take us to the airport! First plane ride was fine.. the second one.. not so much. We had to walk a ways to get to the next gate.. and then we sat on the plane for about 45 -60 min while waiting for people and then had to wait our turn to take off. We finally got to Moline at 1130. Got our luggage loaded up by a super nice lady. Then on the way home.. 2 deer ran out in front of our van! Thankfully I wasnt going very fast and was ab le to swerve and miss him by about an inch. The other deer stop and at leasted waited till we passed to go across! That was fun! But Tanner didnt even wake up!
It was a great trip and we had so much fun. Tanner became a big fan off Stitch.. he says because Stitch is wild like him. Now he wants all kinds of Stitch things! We had 126 pics on our Photo pass and we took about 700 pics. It should be fun to scrapbook!
