Day 2 - Epcot 9/14

Day to is an Epcot day with our dinner reservation at The Garden Grill Restaurant. Breanne picked this one as she remembered it from our trip when she was 4! I set my alarm for 6:00am and was up before it went off. Getting everyone else up proved to not be such an easy task. The kids were crabby and since Ron had stayed up late and had a couple of drinks the night before so he was not moving very quickly either. Mom and I were ready to go though! Here is g-ma on her scooter as we head to the Epcot entrance. Good morning Breanne!
Simba was always by Breanne's side. See how wide awake Ron looks. This is a theme for the day!!!!!

Cheery, Bright-eyed Ron again.

Here we are at the opening ceremony! After the hello from the charactors we are headed staight for Test Track.
Test track was Fun Evem my mom rode it. Here are some goofballs in the queue.


After test track Ron, Bre and Mike went on Mission space. This is not my cup of tea so I sat it out with G-ma. Then we stopped to listen to the Jamminators. They were very funny!

We looked around the Land Pavillion and had lunch there. No food porn I forgot. We grabbed some Icey drinks and then we started our way around the Wold Showcase Pavillions.
First up Canada.

It was really pretty here. Lots of loveley gardens and ponds.
One of the many Koi ponds.
We got a really light drizzle happening just as we approached Italy so g-ma decided she better cover up. It was over as quickly as it began.

G-ma started to not feel so good about this time so she opted to skip dinner and head back to the hotel. We had a 4:30 Dinner reservation at the Garden Grill so after only 1/2 of the World showcase seen we head back to the Land Pavilion for dinner. We had decided to celebrate each of the kids and my mom's birthdays while we were at the World and today was Mike day. The Garden Grill is a character meal. You are visited by Chip and Dale, Mickey and Pluto. Chip and It is also a relvolving restaraunt so that makes it pretty neat too. Dale were up first and very entertaining.

Chip!
Dale!

Here we are all together. Dinner is served family style. It was Flank Steak, Turkey and Catfish. Along with rolls and salad. For dessert we had this amazing Blueberry buckle was to DIE for!!!

The "kids" found the ice cube with the holes in them to be very fun to play with.
Mike got a special card and a cupcake for his Birthday celebration!
After dinner we were all stuffed, hot and pooped so we decide to catch the buss back to our resort to relax. Perhaps some swimming and sight seeing around POP!

I loved you guys and your goofy tongues. I can't believe how much your daughter looks like you.

Moms scooter was the holder of all things, well at least all of the things that people didn't give me to hold!

I took the Beatles pics with you in mind.
