Ok, i threw the next installment together really quick. It was a pretty easy going day so it was easy to write.

Day 5 Wednesday April 22nd

Since we didn’t take a day off on Tuesday we took the morning off on this day to sleep in and relax. I only slept in for a little while and I got up and headed to Downtown Disney. I wanted to do some shopping there. I spent about 3 hours there and Joey and Greg met me to have lunch at Earl.

I love Earl. Joey and I both got the Ham and Cheese. It was really good. Greg got some veggie sandwich that he really enjoyed.

After lunch we headed towards Epcot. Once in Epcot we met up with Juanita and Dwain and went to Test Track. The wait time was 30 minutes so we went ahead and waited in the standby line.

After Test Track we headed to Nemo and Friend and Turtle Talk with Crush. This time Turtle Talk was open and I didn’t get screamed at by a cast member. It was a much better experience than a few days earlier.

I think after that we headed towards World Showcase. I had some gifts I needed to by and this was our last day at Epcot. I bought some shot glasses in Germany for our friend back home that was watching our house and our dogs. She loves Germany and is going to move there in a couple years. And she is a big drinker so I thought the shot glasses were a perfect gift for her.

After shopping around World Showcase we headed to Le Celier for our dinner reservations. This was our first time going here and we were all pretty excited because of all the great reviews I had read. Our server was great. I think his name was Patrick. He was a really funny guy and very sure of himself. I told everyone that they needed to make sure they ate the pretzel bread, which we all enjoyed. And I ordered a cup of the cheese soup for us all to taste and to dip our bread into. It was yummy. For our entrees we had the following: I had the New York Strip Steak. It was fabulously cooked. And oh so yummy. Greg and Juanita both got the Mushroom Filet and absolutely loved it and the risotto. Dwain got the Chili-Seared Pork Tenderloin, which he enjoyed but wasn’t expecting the pickled vegetable and noodles to be cold. And Joey got the Filet also but he got the cream cheese mashed potatoes instead of the risotto. After tasting Greg’s risotto he wished he had gotten that instead. Overall our entrees were delicious and we enjoyed it a bunch. Dessert time…. We were all so stuffed but we attempted to eat it anyway. Juanita, Greg and I all got the Maple Crème Brulee, Joey got the Cheesecake and Dwain got the Chocolate on Chocolate Whiskey cake. We all loved them. Although it is the first time I have had a crème brulee that was cold and not warm.

After dinner Joey, Greg and I headed back to our room. It was a very nice and relaxing day. Not too rushed. So I didn’t feel guilty about not taking a full day off like I had promised we would do this trip.
