Hollywood Studios

Tuesday we ventured out to Hollywood Studios. Our first stop after entering was to get a Fastpass to Toy Story Mania since we had heard it was the most popular ride there. Once that task was accomplished we went to see the making of Narnia which Kaylee really enjoyed but Campbell was not a huge fan. While were on that side of the park we took in the Little Mermaid Show which was fantastic! Ariel sang beautifully and the rest of the characters as well. One of the neatest things were the effects like feeling as if you were underwater at one point in the show, having water squirted at you, and a gust of wind blow at your face. We all were let wondering what would happen next.

By the time we were done there we were able to go get another Fastpass so we got one for the Star Wars ride on our way to the Indiana Jones Show. Let me just say that the Indiana Jones Stunt Show has not changed at all from what I remember from high school. While I sat there the memories just cam flooding back.

Next up was the Star Wars ride which was newly opened. R2D2 was our pilot as we went on a simulated adventure through space. The end of the ride made us all jump a little. After that we went to get an afternoon snack and to watch the Disney Rocks show at the main stage area. We happened to run into our friends again so Kaylee and Reid had a good time talking about all the things they had done so far. One of their tips was to go to the Muppet Vision 3-D so that was our next stop and again the effects made the movie so fun.

Our meal reservation for today was at the Brown Derby and it was the best food of the trip and quite possibly one of my favorite meals ever. YUM-O as one of my favorite cooks would say.

By the time our meal was over it was time for the Toy Story Mania ride and we loved it. The ride is a lot like the Wii game with the same title only you are moving in a car with your own laser gun. The four of us competed against each other and it was a blast. I wish we would have had time to ride this one again.

Then we went to see the musical version of Beauty and the Beast which was beautifully done from vocals to costumes. The girls loved it and so did I.

Next we made our way to the Rockin Roller Coaster which Campbell was not tall enough to ride so Cary and I took turns riding with Kaylee. I have to say it was crazy fast and really fun! The build up that everyone had given it turned out to be true.

While Kaylee and Cary went to ride the Star Wars ride again, Campbell and I did a little window shopping and enjoyed a concert.

Our last stop was the Fantasmic Show which kept us all amazed. Definitely our favorite of the trip. What a wonderful way to end the day! We even ran into some of our sweet friends who were there too.
