Day 3 dawned with us hitting Epcot. Stitch was on hand to greet us:
Will and Wesley were sporting their Nemo shirts and excited for the Nemo ride. They are CRAZY for Nemo (its how their daddy babysits them :)
We rode through the ocean in a giant clam. These little "pearls" were in the clam next to us.
Then we met Bruce, and we were hoping he believes kids are friends not food!
Bruce freaked Wesley out and mostly kept him from playing in the kids area, but not the other 3.
Of course, Jon was a little freaked out too!
We also went to check out Imaginations and conducted a symphony as well as found lights we could jump on to make noises. Will was a big fan of both.
Then the bottom fell out and we were s-o-a-k-e-d. Thank goodness our kids have a Nana and Pop because their cheapskate parents wouldn't spring for rain gear! Nana and Pop hooked them up with some official Mickey ponchos and umbrella. Thank goodness, because it continued to rain.
It obviously didn't dampen this monkey's spirits. He and Wesley's favorite ride was one we almost didn't take them on. It was the little boat ride in Mexico. It's not the fanciest ride, but they loved it because you had to look for Donald Duck. Wesley, the little tour guide, especially was having a great time yelling, "Dere's Doald Duck, Mommy wook Doald Duck!"
Night was beautiful despite the rain.
The boys found a model train in Germany and were in little boy heaven. They would still be there today if we hadn't forced them to leave.
This drown rat magically transformed into a princess (thanks to the dress and accessories Nana and Mommy lugged all the way to Norway) in time for her princess dinner- more on that wonderful night later. Then she turned back into a pumpkin, albeit a poncho covered one.
Then we braved exhaustion and rain and walked literally around the world to see the firework show. It was amazing although we teased Pop for thinking this was the big Epcot ball in a blond moment :)
This is what we all wanted to do, but no one would carry us in so we had to walk it.
Another day spent battling the weather, but still fun. Today had my favorite moment from the entire trip, coming soon.
