MK, EPCOT and the luck of the Irish!
It was now Tuesday. It's the day before my birthday. After a migraine filled night and a nasal dosage of Imitrex I woke up not knowing if I was Arthur or Martha. The first thing I saw when I opened my blood shot eyes was the Minnie and Mickey the kind manager of the BC Peggy had left us in our room the day before! That cheered me up no end!
I was thirsty, hungry and stumbling around like a groom after a heavy stag night. Jo fixed us some breakfast and gave me a big glass of coke. Then some Powerade. Then another coke...Soon I she had the shower running and selected some clothes for me. I started to feel a little better as the Cinnamon Jacks cereal and drink started to kick in.
We were off to MK this morning! We decided to go Disney bus today. We wanted to go to EPCOT this afternoon so it seemed logical to use the monorail from MK to EPCOT then come back to BCV from EPCOT so no car needed.
Soon we were on the bus heading for MK. We excitedly chatted to Pam. Beyond sweet she asked how I was. I assured her I was on the road to recovery. All that day she and Jo made sure I kept snacking and drinking. They were like my guardian angels!
On arrival at MK we marvelled at the halloween displays. So cute. Jo posed nicely for me outside MK ...
Me and Pam outside MK ...
Now I am not sure if it was this day but I kept obsessively going into the Emporium store in Main Street every time we went to MK to check on those fabulous HM limited edition magic bands. But I got used to hearing the words they had sold out the moment they hit the store. But...( dramatic music ) ... one day proved fruitful. It may have been this day! I am a very persistent lass!
We headed to new FantasyLand to score a date with 7 dwarfs through their diamond mine , Pam got some new cards for the MK sorcerers game at one point. It was either entry or exit! She seemed pleased with her new cards.
When we arrived at FantasyLand ( oh boy oh boy Mickey ) this land is real pretty I do love it so! We did 7DMT which we all enjoyed. We all noted it seemed longer today compared to the ride we took in May together. We liked that it lingered at Snow's cottage at the end. For once we saw Snow dancing!
Then we moved across to another favourite. HM. While we waited Jo got a
DAS return time for Peter Pan. HM never fails to disappoint. It's such a cute ride. I heard a rumour if you ask a CM for a death certificate when you board they give it to you at the end. I would love to see if that is true. I must ask the CM next time! Pam had a really interesting hitchhiker on her car at the end. I had never seen that guy before he made us all giggle.
We headed over to Peter Pan. Pam had introduced us to this cute ride in May. How could we miss it! It was to become one of our favourites now! Pam showed us a hidden Mickey. Too sweet.
By now we were hungry. We headed to that fabulous eatery Pesco Bills. Jo was worried that Pam would not find anything of interest on the menu and whispered to me but I assured her I had already asked Pam this. It seemed the taco salad made a nice lunch choice for our Pam. I had a turkey sandwich and Jo had a burger. We love all the help your self salad , mushrooms etc. Do you know what..we did.
After lunch we headed out the park.
Next up...afternoon it's EPCOT in the rain, then to Ireland and Raglan Road and then Co-Op for shop shop shop!
