Disney World - Day 6

On Day 6 we headed off to Epcot for the morning because we had lunch reservations there. We wanted to make sure that Olivia was able to meet Snow White (since we missed her at the castle and she was at Epcot) and Tinkerbell - one of her other favorites that we had not seen yet. So when we first got there we went to check out where Snow White was supposed to be. While over in that area we found a silly foam crown for Olivia that she really liked - so since we were already spoiling her to death, we got it for her.

Then we headed over to our lunch reservation at the Coral Reef restaurant. This restaurant had a HUGE fish tank along the entire side of the restaurant with sting rays, sharks, sea turtles and all sorts of fish in it. One of the LARGE sea turtles came right down to the glass to pose for pictures and we were able to get a picture of Olivia with him. He was bigger than her!

After lunch, we headed over to Pixie Hollow to meet Tinkerbell. We had her in her Tinkerbell shirt, shoes and socks for the occasion! When it was our turn, Tink told us that she had spotted her coming in line and had been waiting for her.




There was a fairy garden behind the area that we met Tink in and we got our picture taken in front of the Tink topiary, too.


Then, it was time to head over to meet Snow White - after a wardrobe change back into our Snow White dress. (I had to hand wash it in the hotel the night before after a pee pee accident the day before!)



Snow White even gave her a nice smooch on her cheek!!


After we met Snow White, we decided to head over to Hollywood Studios again to catch their Fantasmic Show later that evening. They only do it on Sundays and Thursdays and we didn't get there in time to see it on Sunday night. On the bus on the way over there, Olivia was her usual "ham" self. If she's awake - she's got to meet EVERYONE on the bus and entertain everyone. She met 14 people (I counted) in the 15-20 minute ride. She asked each of them their names and chatted with each of them. Pretty much everyone within range of her. When we got off the bus, a huge group of them all said "Bye Olivia" at the same time - it was pretty funny!
The first thing we did at Hollywood Studios is go try to meet Woody and Buzz Lightyear since the line was so long last time we tried. It was still a long line, but there was lots to look at and do in the line - so it went pretty quickly. Here she is cheesing behind one of the picture spots in the line:


She did pretty good meeting them. She even gave them both hugs - and Buzz was really big!






We wanted to make sure we got in line really early for the Fantasmic show - like an hour and a half!! Fortunately it is in a big arena with food vendors and stuff inside the stadium, so once we got in, we got some hot dogs, popcorn, cotton candy . . . etc. and waited for the show to start. It is a pretty amazing show - The stage is on the water and they use fire, fireworks, lights and the characters to tell the story of good versus evil - basically Mickey versus the dragon that one of the evil witches turns into. They actually spray water up in the air outside the stage and project parts of the story onto it. It was really neat!
At the end, once Mickey defeated the dragon, a big boat came out with almost all the Disney characters on it:

It was a late night - but a lot of fun. We were really surprised when Olivia was still awake once we got back to the hotel. But she was looking pretty silly by the time we got back. She still had her Snow White dress on, but we put her jeans underneath to keep her legs warm at the Fantasmic show. She also had her sweater and crown on. It may have been silly - but it worked on her! ha ha!
