DAY 13 | Star Wars The Rise of the Resistance. | ||
Our first day in the park, and Hollie & Bens second! We arrived early and benefitted from cooler temperature.
Our first ride, a sedate Jungle cruise.
With a cheesy commentary from Captain Jeff.
Then Pirates of the Caribean.
With lots of thrills and sea shantys.
My favourite pic of this little lady xx
Our most favourite ride was the brand new, Star Wars The Rise of the Resistance. the many layers of this immersive ride stunned us.
We secured ourselves a spot at the bar in the "Cantina" (as seen in Star Wars on the planet Tattooine), amongst the aliens & strange sounding cocktails.
I really only wanted the drink with the weird foam, turns out I was the only one with a 10am alcoholic drink..Who knew?
Fruit Juice & Bubbles, even Bear approved.
While in the star wars themed area, we took a ride on the Millenium Falcon Simulator.
Perhaps you can tell, Ian is loving this adventure.
I have to admit the attention to detail is stunning, even the hand dryers in the loo are aged with patina and rusted.
We were hungry so once the restaurant opened, we swooped in for their Special fried chicken & mash x4.
Time for Ben & his princess to get a snap in front of the Magic Kingdom Castle.
Ian of course could not resist the chance for a smoochy picture with his Princess... Yeah Right !
Anyhoo a late afternoon of laundry and clearing out the car for me, while Ian snoozed, and the kids made the most of Magic Kingdom.
Ian & I returned to last nights Curry purveyors " Gateway to India" for round 2, Hollie & Ben are back in the park!
Last day as a 4 some tomorrow.. Will miss their faces.
Goodnight reader sleep well xx
