Disney World Day 6



We were all looking forward to returning to Hollywood Studios on this day.  This park has some of our favorite rides-Toy Story Midway Mania, Rock n' Roller Coaster, Tower of Terror and Star Tours.  We got fast passes for Toy Story Mania and then rode Rock n' Roller Coaster.  Reed decided not to ride this time and waited with Riley and I.  When Steve, Cole and Trent were done, I then rode with Cole and Trent. The same thing happened at Tower of Terror.  Reed just wasn't feeling the big rides today.  Riley was tall enough to ride this though.  She rode first with Steve, Cole and Trent.  We then rode again while Steve sat out with Reed.

We grabbed fast passes to ride Rock n' Roller coaster again later on. We rode Star Tours next  and then met both the characters from Cars and Phineaus and Ferb.  After meeting the characters, we went to use our Toy Story Mania fast passes.

After Toy Story, we headed back to the Animation Academy.  The kids loved this drawing class on our first day at Hollywood Studios and wanted to do it again.  This time we drew Buzz Lightyear.  He was a little more difficult to draw but the drawings still turned out really well overall.  I forgot to take a picture though and haven't been able to figure out where any of the drawings disappeared to because I haven't seen them since we got home.

After the drawing class, we returned to Rock n' Roller coaster to use our fast passes there. By this time, we were getting hungry.  We headed to Pizza Planet for lunch.  Over lunch, we discussed what we wanted to do the rest of the day.  The kids wanted to see the shows we had missed on our first day.  When looking at the schedule, it looked like we could hit all three shows over the course of the afternoon so that was the plan.

After lunch, we headed directly for the 1:00 show of Lights, Motor, Action, a stunt show.  The boys really like this show.

After Light, Motor, Action, we crossed the park to watch the Beauty and the Beast show.  Riley and I really loved this show.  While over in this part of the park, we grabbed some more Rock n' Roller Coaster fast passes for that evening.

The Indiana Jones Stunt Show was next.  We watched that and then decided to return to American Idol, which we had enjoyed on the first day.  After American Idol, the kids still wanted to squeeze in a couple more rides.  We rode Star Tours once or twice and then headed to Rock n' Roller Coaster to use our fast passes there.  Although we rode Rock n' Roller Coaster many times that day, Riley had no problem keeping herself entertained in the gift shop.

When we finished Rock n' Roller Coaster, it was nearing park closing time (7 pm).  We headed out of the park and took the bus back to our resort.  We ate in the food court once again.  Luckily, the food court at Art of Animation is pretty good and offers lots of options.  We ended up eating there more than we had originally planned.  We spent some time in the room after dinner.  The kids had purchased character drawing books today and so they found paper and pencil and had fun doing that.  It was then time for bed.  We were starting to get sad that our trip was coming to an end.
