Up early (AGAIN), we had breakfast with the Disney Princesses, Erin chose a Cinderella Dress (not cheap US$60 odd) - hectic stuff!!! Jamie tried on every Disney Dress available but all were to "scratchy".....Erin looked gorgeous and the Disney Princesses were amazing with the kids, we met, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Cinderella and Belle. Breakfast was good even the men and boy in our party enjoyed it, Josh wasn't to keen to take photos with them although....lol....The kids have autograph books which all the characters need to sign and they then take photos with them for the opposite page.
First ride at Disney World was "Space Mountain" - excellent ride to start with it was like a real roller coaster ride in space, it was all in the dark - it leaned you one way and then whipped you in the opposite direction - really makes you feel out of control....yeah man !!!!!!
Next was Tomorrowland Indy Speedway, Erin got a speeding fine but was still good enough to get her drivers licence, OMG Shanaid was a disaster - she was all over the track and a danger to all other contestants. I am seriously reconsidering allowing her to get her learners in Feb next year, we do not need anymore dangerous drivers on SA roads......eeek!!!!!
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad was the next exciting roller coaster ride - the queue's were madness, we waited for a painfully long 90minutes for a 3minute ride. What a ride !!!!!!! It is a rollicking runaway train of a roller coaster that rushes through the gold-mining town of Tumbleweed in the Frontierland area. The sounds of the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad wheels chug-chugging, then ratchet and racing across seemingly rickety tracks. Swoop around sweeping turns and tear up rolling hills that dip or drop into canyons and caverns. This is where I left my Guess sun glasses in the storage compartment of the rail car - was so annoyed!!!!!!!!
Dinner was at Hollywood Studios - famous Brown Derby Hotel.
The Hollywood Brown Derby is the signature restaurant at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Modeled after the original Hollywood Brown Derby restaurant from Los Angeles, you'll find everything here a Hollywood fan would want such as the caricatures on the walls of famous people, curved booths, elegants sets and waiters dressed in tuxedos. The food is wonderful and we had their very famous "Old Famous Cobb Salad" - Lan's you did good getting us in here as the reservations here are very hard to come by. We got tickets to the Fantasmic show...WOW ... it is a breathtaking 25-minute lavish musical extravaganza in sight and sound, fireworks and water show performed by Disney Characters—including heroes, princess and villains. Combining explosive pyrotechnics, shimmering laser lights and dazzling dancing water effects with beloved Disney songs and animations. Incredible!!!!!!
Some late night shopping and badge collecting was then the order or the evening !!!!!
