We arrived at our motel on Friday afternoon at about 2:30 PM and checked in wirh no problems. We were staying at the Holiday Inn Sunspree about 2 miles from DTD. Everyone was really nice, pleasent and helpful. The motel was clean and nice for the most part. We were at hte MK by 4:00 PM. Parking was not a problem and there was still plenty left. We got to ride HM, Philharmagic, and spent most of the afternoon shopping. We got to see the lighting of the castle and the icecicle lights were Fantastic!!
Dinner was LTT, and it was excellent as always. I was really glad to be able to eat with the characters one last time. Got some nice pics and then we went an watched Spectromagic from right outside the LTT. Great view as it was not as crowded as I had feared. We got to catch wishes behind the castle as we headed up to Toontown to check out the lines for Tinkerbell...alas it was about an hour wait so we headed back to the motel. Saturday was coming soon and we we planned on hitting DTD and Epcot.
