WDW: Day Six

We had another early start this morning. Hollywood Studios opened at 8 am for Extra Magic Hours, so we wanted to be there at rope drop to get fast passes for Toy Story Midway Mania and to get Finley signed up to be in the Jedi Training Academy show. Clifton went with Finley to sign up and I went to Toy Story Mania to get fastpasses. After I got them, Clifton texted me to say they were having technical difficulties and to meet them over there.  They told everyone in line that they would start signing kids up at 8:30 am.  Clifton and Finley went to ride Star Tours while I held the place in line.  Turns out, Star Tours was having issues as well.  They finally just walked off without riding it in order to get back to the sign up spot in time, they just made it!  Finley was set for the 11 am show.

The night before we had dinne at The Plaza Restaurant.  A sweet family at the table next to us gave us their ANYTIME use Toy Story Mania passes they had gotten when the ride broke down on them, they were leaving and wouldn't be able to use them.  That meant we got to ride it twice.  I say it is good karma for all the fast passes I handed out in Disneyland when we couldn't use them.  Clifton got the top score for the hour on our first ride!

Finley met Chip and Dale, then we headed to ride Star Tours a couple of times.  Before we knew it, it was time to check in for the show.  Finley got together with all her castmates and they marched over to the stage.  She was the second youngest kid in the show and she did amazingly well.  She did have some trouble activating her light saber, but other than that, she was just perfect.  She got to battle Darth Vader and became a Jedi!  We have the whole thing on video, I will post it later.  It is such a cute show.

Then it was time for lunch at 50s Prime Time Cafe.  Finley and our waitress got along famously.  She got her to eat all her peas and carrots.  Finley was giggling the entire time!  She was rewarded with a chocolate milkshake.  Yum!  We rode Star Tours again and Finley selected a Pluto R2D2 toy from the gift shop for doing so well in the show.  It was time for a nap since we were at the bus stop at 7:10 am.

Finley and I changed into our swimsuits and swam for a bit.  There is a big volcano slide in the pool, which looked really neat.  I had Finley convinced to go on it when a kid started struggling at the base of the slide.  He was under for quite awhile and the lifeguard had to jump in the pool to rescue him.  It was quite scary.  And it meant no slide for Finley, which I totally understood. 

After a three hour nap, we headed over to the Magic Kingdom.  We watched Philharmagic waiting for our fast passes for Crooked Choo Choo.  We rode Pirates and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad three times, then we headed over to Tomorrowland.  Finley wanted to watch the Monsters Inc Laugh Floor show again, so we headed in just as it was starting.  The show is so cute and changes everytime.  This time, Mike's nephew interviewed Finley.  He asked her name and told her she had four ears.  Then he told her a joke about a pirate.  All the while, she was on the big screen.  She did great!  She wasn't scared at all.  She was laughing so loud during the entire show, I think she had half the audience laughing with her.  Her reward was riding the People Mover with arms up the whole ride.  We rode Buzz Lightyear one last time and boarding the monorail home.  Finley didn't want to leave, but it was past 10 pm and time for bed.
