They had this fun little playground called Honey I Shrunk the Kids. It was great for the kids and parents. We could climb through "ant tunnels", climb through spider webs and take a ride on an ant.
Then the girls were in heaven when we got to see a street show of High School Musical 3. The performers sang songs from the latest movie. Recognize the little girl in the next two pictures? Emily got picked to go up and dance along to one of the songs.
We hoped Joey would be excited seeing the Cars characters, but even Lightening McQueen scared him. The poor boy, I feel like we're traumatizing him with this trip.
We went back to the hotel in the afternoon so Joey could nap and Paul took the girls swimming in the pool. Afterwards, we went to Epcot for dinner at the Coral Reef Restaurant. It was a nice restaurant with a huge acquarium. Then we went to see Turtle Talk with Crush from Nemo. That was a really funny show.
Afterwards, we took the monorail over to Magic Kingdom. Their was a Wishes Fireworks show that we wanted to see. The castle (and the rest of the park) looked so pretty all lit up at night.
We caught a performance by the characters at the castle (our timing was working out perfectly for everything today). Of course, Joey cried through most of it again.
We went on the Dumbo ride and the carousel while we were waiting for the show.
And then it was 9pm and time for the Wishes show to start. All I can say is WOW!!! The fireworks were amazing and went with the music. Paul, Emily and I LOVED it. I had found earplugs for Alli (Joey wouldn't keep his in), so she was able to tolerate it and Joey just screamed through it. He is NEVER going to want to come back to Disney, I tell you. He's going to think it's the Scariest place on earth!. I can't really blame them with the fireworks though - I hated them too when I was their age - I used to scream at all the 4th of July fireworks.
