The rest of our Disney trip (final post!)

I started writing this so long ago, and I am ready to wrap it up.  Guess I should have done it this way from the start.  Anyway...

That Wednesday morning we headed back to Animal Kingdom to eat at the character brunch at Tusker House.  It looks like a run-down hostel on the outside, but once you are inside it still looks like a hostel.  I think that's on purpose, but there is great food and the characters actually came to our table.

Then we met Baloo and King Louie our our way to Dinoland.  Owen played there while I rode Everest.

By then it was nap time and after that we headed to MK for the Electrical Parade.  On our way in we met Tigger and Pooh...

and Chip and Dale...

That took quite a while, so we just grabbed a premium seat on the curb of Main Street U.S.A and had corn dog nuggets from Casey's Corner for dinner.

Waiting for the parade to start...

Tinkerbell...

 

I think this was a snail...it was an accident, but the blur was cool so I left it alone...

 

Captain Hook!  Owen wasn't so fond of him.

 Pete's Dragon...

Owen thinks this smoke is da bomb so he has asked to be a dragon for Halloween.  Now to explain the smoke isn't part of the deal...

On Thursday morning we headed back to MK to pack in as many rides as possible.  We also hit toontown and Owen rode his first roller coaster.

The speedway...

Pirates of the Caribbean...Arghhh!

Jungle Cruise...

Finally met Peter Pan and Wendy!  They asked him to go with them to Neverland, but he declined.

That night we went back (rather quickly) to Epcot and had dinner at Teppan Edo.  And then we walked back through the countries.

Mexico...

 

 

He's really getting into pirate mode now...

And then we rode Nemo one more time.  Owen insisted on taking a pic with each and every character outside the ride.  I spared you by only showing Nemo and Dory...

We bid adieu to Epcot...

Friday morning was our last day, so of course we hit MK one last time.

 Squinting on the train...

We put Zurg behind bars...

The last parade we saw...

Owen did really well on our trip and didn't have a meltdown until the very end.  Right after this parade we went to get on the monorail.  There was a 15 minute delay so we opted to ride the ferry to the parking lot.  I thought it was a good idea, but it ended up taking us over an hour to get to the car.

I think his fit was due to a combination of him being worn out and upset at the fact that we were leaving.
