We received a Stitch/Mickey wake up call at 6:30am. Well, we received it but I was the only one to get up. We were meeting Lynn and Mary at MGM Studios at 9am. I know Disney keeps trying to get me to call it Disney's Hollywood Studios, but MGM is so easy to say!
I walked over to the main building and got some breakfast to bring back to the room. Victoria slept in a bit. Walking out of the room at 7am was met with an instant wall of hot/muggy weather which instantly fogged up my sunglasses and camera lens. If it wasn't so hot out, the walk over to the main building would have been a pleasant one. As it was, everyone I passed had a glistening about them, and some other wackos were actually jogging.
The market place had an assortment of grab n go food as well as coffee, bottled drinks/juices and some hot breakfast offerings. I grabbed a kids egg n cheese biscuit which came with a juice and wedge of orange for Victoria and a yogurt fruit plate for me. Victoria ate the yogurt/fruit/granola plate and I was left with the kiddie breakfast biscuit. It wasn't bad!
After a shower and breakfast, we drove over to the MGM/Hollywood Studios. Victoria’s ticket did not work so we went to Guest Services and replaced it. We had a lot of problems getting our tickets to work properly in the turnstyles. After some confusion, we met Lynn and Mary and went over to Rock n Roller Coaster. I had my colorful St. Martin shirt on, and the director shouted out to us, "Honey, no one will lose you in that shirt." Victoria thought it was a riot. All part of the fun!
It was hot. I mean really hot and muggy. The girls got fast passes and rode the ride 3 times, once without a pass, and twice using all of ours. It was so hot waiting for them. We went on The Great Movie Ride. The air conditioning of the wait felt good. We headed out of the park by 11am and went back to the Coronado Springs Resort.
We met the Lane Family at the Pepper Market at 12:30pm. It was good to see the family again. What nice people! They mentioned Amanda a lot, the person who still connects all of us. One of Amanda’s sisters looks so much like her it was easy to remember Amanda’s face and mannerisms. The family seems well, but still feels a huge loss after six months. The kids swam in the pool and splashed around for the afternoon. We said goodbye and went back to the room. The heat had zapped us and we agreed to call it a night and meet up the next day at Epcot.
Victoria and I ended up grabbing some quick food at the market, and read books/lazed around until time for bed. If I don't look up from my book, I'd think I was home because Victoria watches the Disney Channel exclusively.
