Day 7 _ EPCOT

So, day 7 😭 I can't believe we're going into our 2nd week of holidays already. Trying not to think about it and just enjoying ourselves. We have to keep checking back on the Thomas Cook CAA site to see what the deal is with our return flight. Ours isn't listed yet but hopefully it will be soon so we can make arrangements. Just hoping were not one of the flights that gets diverted up to Glasgow! Reason being we'd have to go all the way down to Manchester to pick the car up to then drive all the way back up to Scotland. So don't fancy that!

Anyway!, Day 7 was an early start as we had Garden grill breakfast booked for 8.35. because everyone (but me) is now on Florida time they're getting up later and later 🤣 so off we went to Epcot with 3 barely awake humans and a chirpy leader (that's me &#128541 we got a good photo with the 'golf ball' as the park doesn't open until 9 but we got through early for reservations 😁

We got seated pretty quickly and got served our fresh fruit and cinnamon bun skillet thing. We had this last time and it was oh so tasty. This place is an all you care to enjoy too so if you need more of anything you can just ask 😀

Our skillet full of bacon, sausages, tater tots, eggs, Mickey waffles arrived soon after and we tucked in. Man I ate too much! Those tater tots are going to be the death of me too
So yum!

After meeting Mickey, Pluto, chip and dale ( dale kept tickling the kids, and Pluto made himself at home at our table) we headed down the stairs to living with the land. This is a good one after food because it's slow haha!

We only had one fastpass booked which was soarin' at 11.45am so we had time to kill.(because of the silly tear system there's nothing really worth fastpassing after the main ones like soarin and test track)

We headed over to the seas with Nemo ; I like the large aquarium at the end which this time they had dolphins... I can't remember them last time 🤔

We seen little Jo and Lou the sea cows. I just love how dopey these guys are. Lou has a back fin injury after being hit by a boat ☹️

The aquarium used up a load of time but we still had a few minutes left so headed over to the imagination with figment. Figment is so cute haha.

Off to Soarin'! P really wasn't wanting to go on this and she started crying when we got in the seats. A cast member came over and explained to her it was just like sitting in a giant rocking chair... That seemed to calm her down and in the end she loved it!

Everyone seemed to be running on empty energy wise now so we made a decision to head back to the resort for 40 winks before heading back to Epcot for the last show of illuminations.

I may have passes out too because next thing I know it's 5pm haha! Feeling MUCH more alert now, everyone headed back to EPCOT for around 6.30pm. Our wee boy kept asking about the golf ball so we rode that and played in the sort of arcade bit that comes after it. Couldn't stop laughing at mine and Ps picture; it chopped off all my hair and I looked like I was doing a pob impression hahahah!

we walked around world showcase to Japan (my favourite country) and spent way too much money there, haha. Before finding a good space to see illuminations. We found a sneaky wee viewing spot at the Italy pavilion I want to say? Moved a plant pot slightly backwards and were able to get right to the front haha

Didn't take much photos today because we're trying to not live the holidays through a lense. Doesn't make for a very exciting trip report for people reading though... Sorry 🙁

Water park day next...
