WARNING: Photo intensive blog post!
Since you are constantly moving through the display, getting good photos is always a challenge but here are a couple.
The next order of business was breakfast. Stu searched through the Disney World app before we headed off. I was doing much better with the scooter and felt energized after a good night's sleep.
We opted for the Garden Grill restaurant, a sit down character spot that we thoroughly enjoyed. The dining area revolves over the Living with the Land ride/tour. We didn't realize it was a character breakfast until this cute little guy showed up to visit.
The food was delicious and plentiful with constant refills of whatever you wanted. First was some fresh fruit along with some delicious monkey bread.
Her name wasn't Alice but she was a great waitress and we enjoyed talking with her.
Pluto was REALLy interested in the cinnamon bread!
We would definitely do this again...delicious scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, tater tots & Mickey waffles.
Stu wasn't the only one getting a visitor!
After our meal, we took the Living with the land tour. It had changed a LOT since we last took five years ago, always evolving.
Then it was time to take in some of the beautiful flowers that dotted the landscape. And the topiaries were awesome! Click each thumbnail to see the larger image. (There are a gazillion more in our SmugMug album.)
And my favorite - Goofy with his namesake.
After all that walking, we stopped for a quick lunch, opting for some cheese and fruit. It was really good and we swore we'd remember to do that again.
Our next Fast Pass was to Soaring around the world....the closest I'll ever get to a roller coaster. For me, this was a thrill ride and probably my favorite in the park. No photos except when we first got seated, before we rose into the air. Yes, there were times I had to close my eyes, and yes, there were times I really had to fight the urge to pull up my feet. Don't miss this ride!! This shows the row in front of us and the next row over to the left.
The other Fast Pass for the day was for Stu, Mission Space, while I waited in the shade enjoying the view.
On our walks, we managed to find a shady spot to watch (from behind) the Garbage Can Band. Be sure to watch the little boy on the left...he was jamming!
...as was this little princess!
We did browse a few shops as well...
Our final visit was through the various lands before our dinner in Japan. When we stopped to rest while Stu enjoyed a beer, we had a wonderful chat with a young military couple waiting to literally fly to Japan.
What it really looked like...
After they left, we had a couple of "fowl" visitors.
Finally, it was time for dinner, hibachi style. The show was fantastic but unfortunately, the food was a bit lackluster.
Stu did enjoy using the chopsticks...I stuck with a fork.
And in honor of our anniversary we got this...and got sung to!
A walk back to the bus in the dark and after a long day, we headed to the room. Tomorrow is Hollywood Studios!
Ciao for now!
Stu and Donna
