Day 4-R&R and MK!
After our late night, I was hoping to sleep in as late as possible today. I had MK booked for today and also a reservation for Storybook Dining at Artist Point with Snow White. I had originally booked it for 6:50 pm and planned to go to MK before dinner,plus hopefully after as well but after we started our trip, I realized it would probably work better for us to have an early dinner here and try to make fireworks then close at MK since it was open until 11pm that day- that would give us lots of rest and pool time and we wouldn’t have to travel to and from MK more than once. I was able to switch my reservation to 4:15pm the evening before so that was perfect.
DS of course woke up earlier than I wanted so I had him cuddle in bed for a while, then had him take a bath and play in there for a bit to try to let everyone else rest a bit longer.
DD12 seemed unusually tired and a bit “ off” today but when I asked if she felt ok, she insisted she was fine. She perked up when I mentioned swimming.
DS was in his element in the kiddie pool
It’s always a bit stressful for me to take DS swimming because he has no fear of water and thinks he can swim even though he actually can’t, so I’m always on high alert that he isn’t aspirating the water or drinking it-I was really glad this pool was completely enclosed so at least I didn’t have to worry about him making a dash to the big pool and leaping in!
Pretty sure DS had a short nap after swimming. The day seemed to go by very quickly between swimming, rest and just resetting for the park so I was very glad we didn’t try to go to a park before dinner.
I think we were the first seating for dinner or close to it, so we were seated very quickly after checking in for our reservation. DS colored for a minute but then started throwing the crayons so they had to go away!
We got our drinks and appetizers- I thought the waiter brought 5 adult apps, although I only see 4 in the picture so not sure if it was only 4 or if one of us took one of each before I took the picture. We had three adults, one child and one toddler and were given at least 4 adult apps, 2 child apps, 5 adult desserts and a side of Mac n cheese for DS, which he refused to even taste.
