We begun our day with using some snack credits at Captain Cooks for a quick breakfast on our balcony before Epcot. This Deluxe dining plan is insane. All of these meals and snacks to use up and get your monies worth!!! We got bananas, muffins, and filled our mugs with coffees and juices. We walked to the TTC and hopped on the Epcot monorail. Epcot was jamming already at 10am. I ran for fastpasses for Soarin'...this is our favorite ride (next to Pirates) in all of WDW. Then we hit Spaceship Earth! Our first time on it since the rehab. We loved it. We thought the ending was a hoot with our faces on the characters, looking into our "future"..when that part started, all you could hear was laughter all around us. It seems like alot of people enjoyed that part of the ride. We then went on Nemo, and then saw that test track was over an hour wait, and I couldn't get more fastpasses yet. Oh well, no testtrack for us this am. We went to our noon ADR at Garden Grill. We love this place. We really do. We love everything about it. The food is wonderful, and the character interaction seems more private or something here. http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/DSCF1781.jpg After lunch it was time for our Soarin adventure and we walked onto the front row within 5 mins of getting into the fast pass line. I wish I could fly like this all of the time! I love the feeling of this ride! We all do! We headed back to our resort after Soarin'. We wanted some downtime at the Poly. We rented watermice and scooted around for awhile. http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/DSCF1787.jpg This is a must do every trip. My husband got a really slow water mouse and he and my son had trouble keeping up to us all. I parked by the WL for a few minutes to look at my second favorite resort before returning my sea raycer. Time to get ready for our dinner at the new restaurant the Wave at the CR. But first some lizard hunting http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/DSCF1799.jpg and a purchase of a Dale hat in the CR gift shophttp://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/DSCF1813.jpg..the Wave was our most unfavorite dining experience during the whole trip. First of all, it took forever..service was really slow. And the food...well, it was just a little weird..they had a limited menu and nothing that we had was really good. The desserts looked good http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp324/lcrimando/DSCF1812.jpg, but everything just had a funky edge to it. Not our thing, we wouldn't return. We had planned on a trip to MK in the evening after dinner, but the meal took hours. We were all pooped after the Wave and did some shopping at the CR instead. I got my monorail T shirt with the Monorail saying on it...I got some kitchen supplies, and my girls got some jewelry. Off to our balcony for Wishes.
