Walt Disney world


We spent the morning having a wander around Universal, trying a few rides we did not get to the day before and looking at the shops. The boys found a soda shop that sold 100 different types of fizzy drink. .After much deliberation they ran with grape fanta, lime fanta and vanilla sprite. Jason and josh also purched crickets and worms to eat ( I belive the crickets were sour cream and onion flavour). They both love this kind of stuff. They day before they happily crunched through lollypops with scorpions in them. I am mystified that my son can happily eat scorpions and worms but cries if he has to eat cheese or ham. It was a nice slow morning for us. The boys have become champion packers and we were packed and ready for checkout in about 10 minutes. We arrived at the beach club at WDW at about 2.30 in the afternoon. We toured the resort, which is lovely, and I ended up with a happy birthday badge (don't ask) that said happy Halloween birthday. That led to every staff member we say saying happy birthday and a clapping ceremony with a free chef hat at the teppenyai place we had dinner at. I am going to hand on the badge for someone else to wear today. We are less than five minutes walk to Epcot and we wandered through the World Showcase before dinner. It was funny to see a mini version of Saint Marks Square in Disney. Their version of Italy has kind of the right look but is far to clean and tidy. It is also missing the smokers and the hawkers which was nice. The boys did a "Kim Possible" mission in Japan which was excellent. They give them a mobile phone which comes up with mission instructions and clues. They solver the clues, go to certain spots and various things happen ( a lantern glowed, a bonsai grew leaves etc). They all loved saving the world and intend to go back and do more missions in the other countries. we crashed at 9pm although the boys were desperately trying to stay awake to watch the disney shows on TV. Apparently they were deprived in Europe because there was no TV to watch....
