Day 14 (Disney day 4)

Hollywood Studio's
We started off with "Voyage of the Little Mermaid" where you go under the sea with Ariel and her friends in this live action musical.  The opening sequence (Under the Sea) is really well done and is a real showcase of what good puppetry really is.  Everything in Disney is done to the max - no short cuts no cost savings - mind-blowing !!!!!
Next was an incredible STUNT SHOW, Lights, Motors, Action!  35minutes of a high-octane stunt show.  An experience of unbelievable excitement as cars accelerate towards each other and swerve away at the last second, motorcycles smash through windows, Jet Skis leap out of the water, a stunt person falls off a 5-story building and massive fireballs explode in the air this all right before your disbelieving eyes!
This extreme Stunt Show is inspired by the smash-hit Moteurs… Action! Stunt Show Spectacular - what a show!!!!!!
The Great Movie Ride, the thrill begins when you enter the full-scale reproduction of Hollywood's historic Grauman's Chinese Theatre. Then you're ushered onto The Great Movie Ride for a journey that'll put you in the middle of the action from gritty gangster flicks of the 1930s to the adventure of contemporary classics such as Raiders of the Lost Ark, Alien, Casablanca, Fantasia, Mary Poppins
Next was a Toy Story Midway Mania ride - 4D - mix between a ride and a show - great fun!!!!
Queues at this park are long and not many rides can be done in a day - you walk and walk and walk and walk !!!!!!!
Dinner we went to Epcot Studios to Norway (World Showcase) we went for an amazing medieval dinner at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall, another Pincess Storybook Character Dining.  We met Mary Poppins, Snow White (who asked us if Joshie "went to slay a dragon" as he had disappeared from the table and was hiding from her..... well that had us all in hysterics)........
IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth, a mesmerizing fireworks, laser and water show featuring a rousing soundtrack that brings together the past, present and future of our planet and its colorful nations. Breathtaking fireworks, brilliant bursts of fire, laserlight effects, dramatic fountain barges, a truelly awesome experience.
Obviously we hit the shopping areas again - our collections are definitely not complete as yet!!!!!  Not sure how the hell we are going to get this stuff home !!!!!!!
