On Sunday, it's our last full day and I'm determined to see as much as I can. DW and I get up early enough to make opening of MK but kids are slow to rise. I want to video the opening so I head over on my own. The train has already arrived and the festivities have begun but I video tape most of it. I wait for rest of family to join me.
We gather together for picture with PhotoPass. I just bought a couple of these so I'll post later. We ride HM, Splash, BTM and Jungle Cruise. Someone has said to me that Sunday is a transition day. Makes sense because we walk on all these rides. No soft opening for Enchanted Tiki Room. Hope we can ride tomorrow, our last day.
Love the screams on DS and me in the front of boat

Get FP for SM because it's down for repair. We ride Buzz, Carousel of Progress, and People Mover. SM is ready and we get in left lane. This lane seems like a longer and faster ride to me. Kids agree it's a faster, bumpier ride than we remember.
Columbia Harbor House for lunch and we eat same thing as last time.
I really want to check out some bands at EPCOT and no one wants to go with me. I go alone. Actually enjoying some solo time.
I rush in park to catch some of the World Showcase Players in England. Off Kilter starts to play. One of the guitars is giving them trouble. They seem to notice but I don't. They play one song and stop. I head over to Morocco. I get a slushie and check out Morocco stuff. I try to get a Strawberry Daiquiri. I wait in line for one guy and then the CM takes the lady after me in line. Really weird. I guess she looked more needy than me. I walk away without Daiquiri because band should now be starting. It's starts to ran a little but band never comes on. Weird. I start back to listen to British Revolution but their playing the same set I've heard twice before. A little disgusted, I head to Canada to watch movie. The wait is really long but I get in and watch.
After movie, I call DW and they're going over to 1900 Park Fare for dinner. Sounds good to me so I decide to leave. I try first to get a Duffy coloring stick for DD. I give up due to number of kids I'd have to trample over to get one. At TTS, I get off EPCOT monorail and I see my family on the resort monorail and I join them. Great timing.
1900 Park Fare is awesome. Boys are a little embarrassed to take pictures with characters but it ends up being a lot of fun. DD's vegan meal is amazing and Chef TJ is awesome! Check out the pictures if you don't believe me.
After dinner, men go to HS. It's an awesome bonding experience for me and boys. We get FP for Star Tours and see the final show of American Idol. We make fun of younger DS because he votes for only guy in competition. He was a bit too much Broadway for me but he wins. Other DS and I vote for second place contestant. At last minute before we leave park, we decide to check out Walt: A Man and His Dream. Boys absolutely love it. They spend a lot of time reading and checking out the exhibit. We watch the movie of Walt telling his story. My boys are very inspired especially my oldest. He's an Industrial Design major at MASSART. He loves Walt's story.
Sad that trip is just about over. Just half day on Monday and fly back.

Love this shot. The boys were doing their comedy all week. Nobody knows what their laughing or talking about. I think they bonded. Awesome.
