Our Last Day

Wednesday we spent the day at Hollywood Studios. Tower of Terror is my absolute favorite ride!
I thought it was really spooky how the sign is the only thing you can see in the picture. I could ride this thing all day long!
Devin, Amelia-Ann, Alexandra, Miles, Anna, Allie & Thomas in line for Rockin' Roller Coaster. We all love this ride too but wish it was 3 times longer!

At Hollywood Studios there were several streets set up with the Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights. It's BEAUTIFUL!!!
 Every surface is covered in lights. I didn't realize when I took the picture that Merry Christmas was there & lit up. I should've taken the picture from the other way so you could read it.
 These angels are suspended by wire above the streets so it really looks like they're flying.
Every 15 minutes the lights "dance" to Christmas music & it snows. It was really unbelievable!
Dean & I with the lights in the background. Please ignore my lovely ensemble. I would never dress like that anywhere other than Disney! Everyone knows my mantra is "cute over comfort". I need to add a footnote to that - "Except at Disney"!!

We left Thursday, but not before one last visit to the Magic Kingdom. We were able to ride Space Mountain again & do a couple of things we'd missed & of course we had to visit the Confectionery on Main Street!

It was really hard deciding what we wanted. I went with turtle fudge. After the confectionery, we took the Monorail to the Grand Floridian to look at the Christmas decorations & have breakfast. I wanted to see the Gingerbread house.

I can't imagine the size bowl they had to use!!!
It's hard to see just how big this thing is but there were 2 ladies inside selling candy out of it.

Then we had breakfast.
Then it was time to go home....
Toodles!
