One Last Day

We slept until 7:30 this morning and it felt like noon.  Meg said that she woke up at five and took her shoes off and went back to bed.  She enjoyed her pizza for breakfast.  Doug and I spent time packing.  I am always sad to go home but it was nice knowing that we still had a day at the park left on this trip.  We dropped our luggage off at the airline check-in at the Boardwalk.  The valet kept our carry-ons.  We had to catch the Magical Express at 2:30 p.m. so we we had time to spend at Hollywood Studios.

Hollywood Studios had been under construction the last few times that we had visited it and today was no exception.  We did get to see the new layout for the new Toy Story Land set to open next summer.  It will add a great deal to the park and when Star Wars Land opens in 2019 the park will be fantastic.  Our hope is to bring everyone back then.

While there we were able to ride Toy Story Mania and Star Tours.  We walked through Walt Disney One Man, One Dream and enjoyed the history lesson once again.  Cam and I had fast passes for Twilight Tower of Terror, so we headed there around 10 a.m.  The ride was listed as closed, but they did still have two elevators running for fast pass holders.  It took a half hour, but we were able to get on.  It was scary as always, but a lot of fun.  We felt thankful for making it on as the ride closed completely later in the day.  Doug and Meg watched the Beauty and the Beast live show while we were in line.  Meg said it wasn't very good, but it gave them something to do while they were waiting for us.  We all met at The Muppet Show 3-D.  It was a great way to end our time at the park as we all really enjoyed the show.

We ate at EPCOT for lunch before making our way back to the Boardwalk to catch our bus.  I was sad to leave, but we had had a wonderful time.  Our trip to the airport and our flight home were quick.  There was a lot of turbulence on the plane but nothing we couldn't handle.  Meg and I both watched the live Beauty and the Beast movie and Cam enjoyed The Lego Movie.  Our luggage was some of the first off of the flight and we were ready for Doug before he got to the car.  The trip home was an easy one and it was nice to head to our own beds tonight.
