Disney World - 2010

Day 4

The last day was very unexpected for me...Nolan just needed some down time, and all he wanted to do in the morning was watch cartoons, lay in bed, and just relax. I was pretty surprised, but also didn't mind as that meant that I didn't have to carry around the backpack full of everything for a few hours.

We spent most of the morning just relaxing. We went down to the playground at the resort, had lunch, Laura got to do some shopping, and took it easy. It was a very enjoyable morning (and the weather was very cooperative, sunny and warm). Laura and Sarah had decided to make dinner reservations for Epcot - and we had the choice between Nine Dragons (China) and the Biergarten (Germany). We chose Germany!

We wandered into Epcot, and rode Spaceship Earth again. We meandered our way to meet up with Sarah and company in the World Showcase. Again, even on Sunday, Epcot was crowded. They are celebrating the 15th anniversary of the Food and Wine Festival, but I also just think it was the weekend. Dinner at Germany was great...and after, the families split up again. We had an early morning pick up going back to the airport, so Laura, Nolan, and I headed back to the resort to pack and wind down.

All in all, it was a pretty interesting trip. This is the first time in quite some time that I wasn't in charge...and had to do things that other people (Nolan) wanted to do. I was a little surprised, though I shouldn't have been, that we spent as much time in the room as we did. Knowing what i know now, we would probably do things just a bit differently. Next time...and there will definitely be a next time.

Hope you all are having a great fall. October has flown by...and I will post pictures soon from Halloween!
