Our Ohana Trip Florida Aug 19 - Wed, Day 6


And just like that we were back in Epcot.



Breakfast was in garden grille do we were in Epcot by 8am.






Breakfast here is family style.

The cinnamon bread was amazing. It was all super tasty.



I did feel like the characters zoomed round here really fast with little interaction which was a Shame. Mia was fine with a pic and autograph for her book though.



We then got straight on soaring again which was great.

Then did a swap with my sis so they could ride it while we stayed with Theo. He wanted to go on living the land again. He is obsessed with tractors. He loved this!



We then got on figment again, Theo's second ride of the day (3rd if you count the land twice!) We are doing well!

Then we met wreck it Ralph and vanelopy.



Mia bought herself a figment toy.



Then it was into our first FP for test track.



Then mission space.

Mia and her uncle Tristian did the Mars ride, while four of us did the earth ride. Theo serve Steph sat this one out.

The kids decided to call or a day with Trisian while the rest of us headed into the world.

Pit stop in Starbucks for some snack credits, super size strawberry acai and a blueberry iced tea.



And a 3rd snack credit went on done cake pops, the lovely lady threw in a 4th one for Mia's birthday. Hope lovely! Everyone here is so kind, that's one reason I love it!



We did a pit stop in the UK to meet Alice, France for a mango sorbet for Mia and to meet belle.

Stopped in Germany to spend 4 SC in the caramel shop. Yum.

Then Mexico for a margarita which was super strong!



Then we called it a day for Epcot.



Pool time now to cool off.

We are going to reassess tonight after everyone has had a chill out and recharge.

MK had EMH tonight and id like to try and see the fireworks there while we are on site. I will finish up tonight once we have decided.

Thanks to anyone who is reading along.



So we did decide to head into MK to try and see wishes, but it didn't go so well 😟

We got there at around 8pm and it was heaving. Everyone had already claimed a space for the fire works. We still have eaten so headed to grab something.

When we returned we were told to 'keep walking' by every cast member. They seem to be cordoning off sections you are allowed to stand in and as they were full of people rammed in like sardines we had to keep walking. They had white lines on the ground and noone was allowed to stand outside of them in the walkways, even though the walkways were really wide.



We were really disappointed.

We hadn't been here since 2013 so they have clearly tried to control crowd levels but all they have done is make it worse in my opinion. There's no way people in the sections could see as they were so tightly squeezed in. The only sections that looked comfortable were the ones that cost more, like for the dessert parties.

It just seemed to us like Disney are trying to make more money out of everyone.

We saw this much of the castle so none of the projections really. The fireworks were good but we were all a bit deflated by it all so didn't enjoy.

I think you need to pick a spot and stand there for the hour before the show off you want to see anything.

What a shame about the fireworks! I hope you get to see them later in your trip.
What do you think of the Coronado Springs pool?

It was a really nice hotel and the children loved the pool and slide there. It was nice that there were life guards on duty all the time, bit of reassurance. We didn't spend that much time there as it was a busy week but it was more than enough.
