This morning, we got to EPCOT at around 11, and went straight over to Test Track to get some fast passes. WE headed over to Mission Space. Cori and I hung out in Mission Control, while Grant, Steve, Angie, Andrew, and Kevin rode Mission Space. Angie didn’t do very well on it.
We decided to take it easy, and we went on Ellen’s Energy Adventure. When we were boarding the vehicles, one of the cast members, and older gentleman named Bill, came up to me and said, “I noticed you walking in and you had such a positive attitude - it is what I like to see,” and he shook my hand. Then ha said, “ I don’t know if you know this, but this is the Year of a Million Dreams, and I have a mission for you. I want you to be a Disney Ambassador. I don’t have to ask if you love Disney because I can already tell you do… what I want you to do is find someone in the park and tell them how glad you are to be here and ask them if they are having a good time. Then, you can take this pin and give it to the guest to help them have a magical experience!” He gave me two Tinkerbell pins… one to keep and one to share!
That totally made my day! I was feeling so happy, so on the way out of the attraction I went up to him and said, “That you so much - you really made my day!” And he says, “Ah, you made my year! You’re a real treat! Then he gave me a rice crispie treat! (o: What a great guy!
Next, we went on Test Track and then had lunch at The Garden Grill. We didn’t have the greatest table, but our waitress was outstanding. She even brought Kevin one of the kids desserts - a “decorate your own cupcake…” So cool.
Then we ode “Living with the Land,” which is different now - instead of a live narrator, it has a recorded spiel. Lunch took longer then anticipated, so we went on Journey to Imagination and then left EPCOT.
We park hopped to Magic Kingdom, via the monorail and the ferry. Once at MK, we went to Splash Mountain and got fast passes. Then we went to the Hall of Presidents for a dose of history and air conditioning.
Next, Andrew, Kevin, Grant, Steve and Angie went on Stitch’s Great Escape while Cori and I rode the TTA. I love the TTA. Then we all saw the Carousel of Progress!!! (o:
Finally, it was time to use our Fast Pass. I ran ahead to try to get Fast Passes for Big Thunder Mountain, and was able to get some of the last ones. Then we rode Splash Mountain - and got soaked - and the Big thunder Mountain.
Finally we watched the Wishes fireworks show, and then headed back to EPCOT, via monorail, and drove home.
(We picked up Wedny’s on the way - OH MY GOD. It literally took us 40 minutes to get our food. Never acceptable - much less when you are as tired as we were!!!
