Thursday was our final day at Disney. It was busier and hotter than ever (at 100 degrees). C and Kam started with Space Mountain while Owen and I stayed indoors to beat the heat. We all made our way over to the first Jedi Training of the day as this was the one thing Owen REALLY wanted to do! He waved his arms and smiled really big and they picked him to become a Jedi Master. We were all smiling as we watched Owen get so excited and take his Jedi Training VERY seriously! He was so thrilled and loved fighting Darth Maul. He carried his little certificate around with him all day.. it was a huge deal for this little guy!
After riding the little rockets in Tomorrowland, followed by Buzz, we headed over to Fantasyland to ride a few more rides. Our lunch reservations were indoors (thankfully) at Carnation Café. We settled into our booth and we were kinda thinking our day was over after lunch. We are from Phoenix.. we can do heat.. but nothing is fun about doing Disney in 100 degrees. Daddy and Kam had fast passes for Big Thunder, so after lunch, they headed there and met us at Pirates for one more ride! Then I had the genius idea of catching the Disney Railroad back to Main Street instead of just walking.. it was a long ride. At least we can say we rode it! :)
After we all showered and changed at the hotel, we relaxed while the heat of the day passed. We headed back to Cali Adventure to finish off our evening. As we were walking down Hollywood Blvd, we found Turtle Talk with Crush and Art of Animation were getting started. C took Owen to Crush and Kam and I went to draw! Kam loves art and drawing so this was perfect for her!
We drew Olaf and I will save you my horrific rendition of him and just share with you Kam's! :) Owen loved Crush and raised his hand to ask "Do turtles eat Octopus?" Good question little buddy.
It was finally time to do my favorite ride at Disney... Tower of Terror! Owen thought it was just another haunted house with an elevator ride, which is sort of true. As soon as we boarded the ride he said "if I die, I'm coming back as a ghost to haunt you all!" Then the elevator dropped. He wasn't thrilled, but he survived.
We sent Daddy and Kam to Cali Screaming one more time while I took Owen on some mild rides in Bugs Land to finish off our trip on a good note. It was a perfect ending to our trip, although we were all grouchy and tired walking to our car the last night.
Highlights of the trip... Owen ate a million of those chocolate caramel dipped pretzels with tiny M&Ms. Kam liked the Mickey cake pops with marshmallow ears. Both kids loved pin trading! Owen likes the beach much more than the crowds of Disney. Disney in December is much more magical (and cool), than Disney in October. I think we will be back in 4-5 years.
The next morning we slept in, jumped in our car and headed home. Grateful that we followed our trip up with a week off for Fall Break! :)
