rest of my trip report

On Wednesday we headed to Epcot and spent the entire day there. There is so much to see and do it's unreal.DD7 was a little bummed that she hadn't met many chrachters yet, but when we arrived at the park we met the Chrachter Caravan. It was great, we met a ton of Charachters. Rafiki is so cool. Dh took DD7 and DD3 on Spaceship earth, big mistake DD3 freaked and refused to go on anymore rides. So me DD7, and DD 1/12 rode the land and we all watched food rocks. From there we headed enjoyed the amazing flower displays and met up with the chrachter caravan in the plaza again. Then the journey around the world(or should I say half way around the world) began. Picked up some passports for the kids. These things are great anyone with kids between 3 and maybe 10 has to get these. They are only $10 and it comes with a cool passport, button, and stickers. My 2 older girls loved collecting stamps and working on the masks. We happened up Pooh and yes TIGGER in United Kingdom. We had them practically to ourselves for a little while. DD 1 1/2 was getting fussy after a pic with POOh and Tigger, so Pooh came over to her stroller and rubbed her head, and she was so happy after that. She really loves Pooh and it's one of the few words she can say. Of course I was happy to see tigger. We tracked down the Beast in France. I thought DD3 would be scared , but any fuzzy charachter was great to her, all she really cared about was the chrachters. Then we saw Alladin/Princess Jasime/Genie in Morroco. DH and I were amazed at how much Alladin sounded like the cartoon voice. We had lunch in America(those daring eaters in my family) Best Chili dog ever though. Then we swung back up to the front, hit living seas and ice cool station. Yes I tried Beverly I was going to chicken out since I new it was nasty, but what would be the fun in that. It actually didn't taste too bad, it was the 10 second delayed after taste Then the rain came:nooo:
We did innovententions and imagination with fignament. DD3 was not happy with this until half way through the ride she realized she loved figment, now that's all she talks about. I want to put some of the glowing side walks in my patio at home those were fun. We forged through the rain and made through the rest of the countries. DD 1 1/2 was soaked because she wouldn't keep poncho on. So we bought a cool blanket in Mexico and then realized she needed try clothes too. So for a souvenier she got the cutest little outfit from china, everyone in the shop had fun with her. I had to have a connoli in Italy( I am 100% italian and not sure if I spelled cannoli right. Caught a glimpse of the living statues and Andrea Boceli cam over the loud speakers for the other performers witht he masks(not sure what they're called) they dance to my favorite song:o Beautiful. DH played in the childrens garden with DD7 while I sat with sleeping children. Got a turkey leg some popcorn and fish/chips before illuminations. All I kept saying was WOW. I new it was going to be cool but WOW. To think that they put that on everynight amazes me.:)

You'd think everyone would have been passed out by this point, but oh no. DD7 and DD3 reminded me that I promised to go night swimming, so off to the fantasia pool(I think that's why I am sick now), but it was fun.
