Day 3, Part 1: Well that was an unexpected wake up!
We decided to sleep in this morning since it had been a rather late night the night before. Even though our alarms weren’t set until 9:00, we still woke up by 8:00. Stupid body clock!
Since it was a lazy morning, I had my coffee in bed while watching the local news. They had some fantastic news for us, our already rain free trip looked to be rain free until the weekend! Wow! I’d say that NEVER happens when we go to Disney, but the exact same thing happened for our trip in May as well. Now with two trips in a row rain free, I’m afraid we may be due for a very rainy trip next time around!
After enjoying a few cups of coffee in bed I finally dragged myself out of bed and got changed and put sunblock on. I was in the middle of straightening my hair when it happened…the fire alarm went off!
Oh my goodness, the fire alarm at the YC is obnoxious! It’s not you standard loud beeping, this had this painful sireny sound to it that physically hurt. I mean, I guess it’s a great way to make sure everyone gets out of the building, but wow, it was bad!
We quickly grabbed our purses and sunglasses, and headed to the stairs right next to our room. We joined the crowd of other guests outside by the quiet pool.
Since it was already pretty warm outside, I decided to go sit with my legs in the pool. As I was sitting there, this little girl came over and sat next to me. We started chatting and she admitted she was really scared. Poor thing. So I did my best to assure her that everything would be fine, and since I design buildings for a living, I told her all about how buildings are designed to keep fires from spreading.
That cheered her up, and soon we were chatting about our favorite rides! We had a really fun chat, and eventually the alarm was turned off! Yay!
My mom and I quickly ran upstairs and finished getting ready, then we were off to Epcot!
This morning we were doing one of our favorite things from our trip in May, breakfast at France! It was around 10:00 when we arrived, so there were already a handful of people back there, but we didn’t have too long of a wait to get our chocolate brioche and mimosas!
Well, until the guy in front of us couldn’t figure out his dining plan at the register. Ugh, that took forever.
Finally we made it through and were outside enjoying our breakfast!
After finishing up breakfast, we made our way over to Future World to get some more photopass pictures! Of course on the way over we took more pictures ourselves!
When we had wrapped up with the pictures, we still had some time before the food booths opened, so we headed over to SE! The wait was about 15 minutes at that time, a lot shorter than the wait we had in May!
We love this ride, so it was nice to get on it, especially since it was closed the other day when we had our FP for it!
Next up: More Food Booths!
