Walt Disney World – Day 7 (5/6/16) Recap/Summary
Trip log:
Started off the morning with a pre-dawn wake up call at 5:45am and out to catch a cab just past 6. Made our way to Oak Trail and checked in early. Luckily we were able to get out about half an hour early and played quickly. Back to the hotel and out for a bus just after 10am. Decided to head to the Magic Kingdom then hop on a boat to Wilderness Lodge to look around. From there took a bus to Disney Springs, it took a while since it went to Typhoon Lagoon first. Once at Disney Springs walk over to the Food Truck courtyard and grabbed some lunch then continued on to Disney Quest. Walked around and played some games. Once we had our fill some went to Ghirardelli for a snack and I went to the parking garage for pictures (yep I am odd that way… roamed a parking garage over a banana split). Took some construction pictures then joined them to walk through the Marketplace. Ended up on the bridge over Buena Vista Drive then hopped on a bus to the Beach Club. Walked to Epcot and heard the British Invasion playing so headed that way to watch their set. Strolled around World Showcase to the American Adventure. After the show caught the Gin Blossoms and then continued on around World Showcase to Future World. Some of the group left at this point and I grabbed dinner at the Electric Umbrella and met some friends. We then wandered around World Showcase and watched Illuminations from the International Gateway Bridge. I said goodbye and headed to the Studios to catch the Star Wars fireworks then returned to Pop Century to pack up and call it a night.
