Epcot Day



Today was our day to finish Epcot. We got there and went on Spaceship Earth, and then headed to Test track.  I think Leeza actually liked it.  Sasha did not.  She said it was too fast.  She didn't say a word on the ride and we had sat next to it for a while so they could see the ride before we went on it.  If you look close in the picture, the girls had ahold of the back of my shirt and were pulling down so hard that I thought the shirt would be stretched out forever.  After the ride, they had a bunch of new cars you could sit in.  The girls loved that part.
Then we headed over to the dinosaur ride-The Universe of Energy.  This was another ride we had talked about alot to make sure they would be fine on it.  They got through the first part where you stand and watch the movie.  Then we went to get in the ride vehicles.  As we were sitting there, they kept repeating over and over again-  "This ride lasts 37 minutes.  Once the vehicle gates close, you will not be able to leave for 37 minutes.  Please make sure you do not need a rest room or have any other reason to leave this ride for the next 37 minutes"  So everyone is fine.  The gates close. IMMEDIATELY, Leeza jumps in my lap and proceeds to repeat for the next 37 MINUTES- I want to get out of here!  Yes, I know exactly how long she sat there saying that.  Over and over and over again.  Nothing would distract her.  I'm sure the people next to us hated us as she wasn't very quiet.  So 37 minutes later, the ride ends, the tears ended about 37 seconds later and she was ready for ice cream.

Mom was now exhausted.  I saw this water play area and told the girls to go have fun while I sat to regroup after the Energy ride.


 They quickly got soaked from head to toe.  I had one set of clothes in my bag, but we went and bought new clothes at the nearby store.(Good Disney planning).  Leeza got into a competition with a little boy to see who could sit on the fountain in the center the most.  Here she is giving him the stare.
 Now it is his turn to stare at her while she sits on the fountain.  They went back and forth for quite a while.  Finally I decided it was time to go.  The little boy came running over to convince Leeza not to leave.  He didn't speak english, but you could tell he thought they were playing a game, while she was in a serious game of "That's my fountain go away"  We went and bought the expensive clothes.  I picked out Leeza some really cute shorts and somehow got them about 2 sizes too small.  She wore them back to the hotel anyway.
 We went and ate and swam again.  And settled in for a good nights sleep.
Mickey clip in her hair, she is ready for bed.  We ended our days pretty early, but we also got an early start most days.
