We're in the land waiting to be seated at Garden Grill. After that we're Soarin. The weather is great, it was really cool this morning but it's warming up.

What a cool real-time trip report! Glad you had such a good time!

FYI to those who are interested-- the report we received from Disney for the past week quoted hotels resort wide at 70% full. Next week is forecasted at 65%. Gas prices really are keeping people away!

This is great! Now, if I could get cool temps as well, we will be all set!

Sadly, we're sitting in the Orlando airport waiting for our flight home. We had a great trip that ended too soon. We have about an hour before our flight takes off so we're going to sit and relax. We went pretty hard and we're all beat and just ready to be home.

Epcot was really busy today, it was by far the busiest we've seen any park this trip. The wait for Soarin' was 95 minutes at 2:30. We had a fastpass and still had to wait 15-20 minutes. We were going to end the day with Test Track but the FP line was huge, I'm guessing it was down because it wasn't moving. We were standing there trying to decide what to do when we overheard the family next to us talking about the long wait and the super late FP return. We decided to give them our Fastpasses that were already good and head out. They were thrilled and it was a nice way to end our trip.

I didn't think it was all that hot this weekend but I think a lot of that was because of a lot of rain. It was really cool this morning but warmed up by 3 or so. I think it was much warmer the first week of June when we were here.

**DisneyTeacher** · 07-13-2008

We're still sitting here hoping our flight takes off on time. A lot of flights have been delayed an hour or more. We've never flown out this late before so we're not used to hearing all the delays. We're keeping our fingers crossed that we take off on time, we're getting home late enough as it is.

disneylovers5 · 07-13-2008

I hope that you have a safe trip home it doesn't seem that you have been gone that long. I hope that my trip lasts longer.

lovemysons · 07-13-2008

Oh I am hoping you are on the plane headed home right now! (Not that I am happy you had to leave, just hoping you are not stranded in the airport.)

**DisneyTeacher** · 07-14-2008

We're home! We had a rough flight home because of storms along the way but we're home. We had a wonderful trip, short but fun. We've never done something silly like going for a weekend but it was fun.

Thanks for following along with my little on site report, it was fun.

chottsy · 07-14-2008

We did have a great trip home. This was our first trip 'HOME' and it was wonderful. Now I have to bank all our extra points, I guess that gives me something to do today.

I still have dumped them on yet. I don't have the energy to go turn the main computer on yet. I'm still on our tiny travel laptop computer since it was handy.....near the couch I haven't gotten off of all morning.
