Day 9 -
We slept in nice and late today! It was soooo nice to finally get some rest!! Around 9:30 (which is eXTREMELY late in DISNEY WORLD! lol) we got ready and headed to the food court for some breakfast. It was soooo crowded but I finally found us some seats.
After we ate, we did something I had wanted to do our whole vacation! We walked around the resort and took pictures!! It was our 8th day and we had yet to walk around the whole resort! I mean honestly, Pop Century is huge! It is very well themed too. We liked it, minus all the noise. If you want to have a romantic getaway this is NOT the hotel for you! The walls are paperthin. But despite that, we had a LOT of fun walking around and taking pictures with everything. Well at least I HAD FUN! lol
After that, we headed to Downtown Disney! I was excited because tonight was the night we were going to see Cirque du Soleil. Todd wasn't as excited as me (what a shocker right?), but his mind would change ; ) . When we first got there, we headed to the Cirque tent and took pictures and went inside the shop and played around! I loved the masks in the shop - they were really really cool! : )
After that, we went to all of the shops. I bought some Disney cds at the Virgin store and also 4 movies. We decided to go see Ghost Rider since we had the time and headed over to the movie. It was NICEST movie theater that I have EVER BEEN TOO! The seats were amazing and it was just wonderful. Of course it was dead because not many people see movies when they are at the fun capitol of the US! lol The movie was pretty good, the hot dogs were good too!
From there, we headed straight to Disney Quest where we spent the rest of the day. We did EVERYTHING!! We tried the rollercoaster thing and both almost vomited, we did the Animation Academy, we did EVERYTHING!!
We were pretty hungry when we left Disney Quest so we decided to go to Wolfgang Pucks Express before the show started. We each got a pizza. They were honestly the BEST PIZZAS WE HAVE EVER HAD IN OUR LIFE!! My mouth is watering right now just thinking about it! They were that good. Todd is a pizza enthuisist and we just were in heaven!
When we were finished, it was almost time for the Cirque Show so we went and in! My dad had purchased the tickets for us because he is amazing and he got us DEAD CENTER about 5 rows back!! They were great seats!! We got some popcorn in these cool Cirque buckets and then waited for the show to start. We definitely weren't sure what to expect!!
IT WAS AMAZING! Absolutely the coolest thing I have ever seen in my life. And Todd.. the skeptic.. LOVED IT TOO! He thought it was awesome. We both enjoyed every second of it and were disappointed when it was over. If you haven't seen it, I advise you to see it asap! And invest in good seats too because it is WORTH IT!
After we hung out Downtown for a while. The place was hopping! When we got back to Pop we were so bouncy and awake that we played in the arcade for a couple of hours!! When we finally crashed, we went to bed vvvvvvvvvvveerrrrry happy!! : )
