Last Disney Day!

Our last day we started at Epcot so that we could get an early fastpass for Soarin', which is totally worth it, by the way!  We did Soarin' and Test Track (both with fastpass) and a few other things that we knew we could get into easily with minimal wait times.  We had a late lunch reservation in Mexico, then headed back over to the Magic Kingdom to cram in more princess fun and Big Thunder Mountain (Brett's new favorite ride).

Playing in the Figment attraction at Epcot


The goal is to jump on the one that is lit up to make music


Mexico, can you tell?! :)


Lunch spot in Mexico - delicious!


Obligatory family picture in front of the Epcot ball


Memere and Poppy with Brett and Kate


Ellen's Energy Adventure (or something like that) - it was pretty cool, but Kate was a little nervous that the dinosaurs were going to get too close!


One of the many Monorail rides for the day!  Speaking of the monorails - Brett LOVED them!  He loved them so much that he picked out a monorail toy as his souvenir!  Funny boy :)


Move it, Shake it, Celebrate it Parade at Magic Kingdom














Dancing in the street at the end of the parade - Todd and Brett are the ones not in black and white :)


Back on the carousel... both kids this time!




Kate thought the pink Cinderella castle was just awesome!


The people mover at night was kind of cool - and relaxing :)  At this point, 6 straight days in the parks was starting to catch up to everyone.


We stayed late that night to see the Electrical Parade.  My parents and I took Kate to get a spot more than an hour before the parade started while Todd and Brett rode Big Thunder Mountain one last time.  Kate fell asleep in the stroller while she was people watching.  Then Todd brought Brett back to us, woke up Kate, and took her to say bye to the princesses (we had a fastpass for both attractions, so they were both quick.)  While we were standing there waiting over an hour for the parade, they had fake snow coming down on Main Street.  Neither one of our kids saw the excitement in that, but the adults thought it was cool!  Shorts and t-shirts in the snow in Florida!  Nice!  Kate and Todd got back just in time for the start of the parade.  Brett fell asleep at the VERY end of the parade.  Just too much excitement for one day :)
