I headed back to the resort and gathered my close to do a quick load of laundry. Since I was putting stuff into an Owner's Locker, I wanted to make sure that everything was clean. The laundry wasn't far from the room. It wasn't exactly cheap, but it's been a while since I've had to pay for a washer and dryer so it might be within the norm. I took some time relaxing in the lounge and then got everything folded and packed up.
After finishing up, I made my way over to Epcot for a dessert party with some fellow runners from the Disboards. Our plan was to have the party in France. A few days before we had decided to move the dessert portion inside because of the cold temperatures. It was held in the Wonders of Life pavilion. We had some yummy chocolate dessert, including fondue, brownies and biscotti. I tried to take some pictures of the pavilion. They didn't come out that good, but here you go!
About 15 minutes before Illuminations was going to start we were escorted to our private viewing area. We had a great view of the fireworks and I recorded the whole thing. I don't have the knowledge to edit a 15 minute video so that I can put it on here. It came out really good though.
After Illuminations ended, some of us walked back towards the Epcot resorts. I thought I'd be able to head over to the Studios by the Friendship Boats, but they weren't heading back there. The Captain said that there were buses heading over to the park. I didn't feel like heading to the front of the resort and waiting for the bus so I decided to walk over to the Studios. The walk was much longer than I thought, but it wasn't that bad. Just cold.
When I got to the park, the Victory Party was in full swing. I had missed the TNT meal, but there was plenty of stuff to do. They had a DJ at the hat with a dance party going on. I did the Cupid Shuffle and then headed over to ride Toy Story Mania. The fast pass queue was closed. I was excited though because that meant I would be able to *hopefully* be able to see Mr. Potato Head!
And he was out! I got a few pictures of him and some video too!
The video wouldn't upload so here is a picture:
I didn't take a picture of my score so I'll need to go my the assumption that I was somewhere around 150k. That seems to be where I get stuck on my own. After that I though I would head over to do one of the other rides, but came across another dance party in front of the hat. You'll never believe what happened there...
Ah, the cold...I remember it well :)! Sounds like you had a good Time.
