We didn't sleep in too much, we were doing the first Behind the Seeds tour at 10:30, so we hopped a bus to Epcot to get there a little before opening.
Since the parked opened at 9, and we were using Mike's CM tickets, we went to a FP+ booth first thing and made our selections. Then, since we had some time, hit up Character Spot right as it was opening.
We then headed to The Land to ride the boat before the tour. Then the tour, which I'll put plant pron pics in the next post to save space. We then made our way to Norway for our Princess lunch.
The lunch was good. I had the roast beef(?) sandwich, which had blue cheese and caramalized onions on it. Altogether, the sandwich was amazing. I also at my weight in smoked salmon lol. Here are the girls:
After lunch, we pretty much just walked around a bit. We tried to use our Test Track FP, but the ride was down for a bit (we had rain for a good part of the early afternoon). With the ride down, we were able to use the FP we had for a different ride, so we rode SE. While in the front, we decided to go do my Disney Visa photo.
After that, we got caught in a really bad downpour, right by the entrance to the WS, right by the stand that happened to sell the cronut sundaes. So, of course we had to get one. And it was amazing!!
After the rain let up, we headed to France to try the new ice cream place. I had the brioche ice cream sandwich and it was pretty good (I should have done chocolate sauce instead of raspberry, tho it could have used a bit more sauce regardless). I was still kinda munchy, so I also hit up some of the food booths, and also got some topiary pics too.
We then tried to go ride TT again, but the FP line was really long, so we did single rider (turns out the hold up was the car designing room, which is really the most pointless feature of the redesign IMO).
On our way to dinner we saw a rabbit outside TT.
As we got back to WS, we saw Duffy, so we went to go get some hugs.
We went to the newer place in Mexico for pavilion and shared the mixed grill platter for two. I was very unimpressed. I wish we had just gotten chips and queso instead. Oh well. We then walked around a bit more then got a pretty good spot for Illuminations.
Illuminations was great, as usual. Then we went back to the hotel and slept. We had decided to make the next day a half day so we could relax more.
