Part 1 of Day 5: Last Day in the Parks

I usually schedule our trips the same way every visit. Arrival day usually means dinner at Ohana's, followed by a non park day at Downtown Disney (now known as Disney Springs). The first park visit of the trip is usually Magic Kingdom (or sometimes Epcot) and we usually end our last day in the parks at Magic Kingdom and Epcot. So this trip was no different. I also try not to think too much about the fact that the vacation is about to end. Unlike my family I never grow tired of visiting Disney so I tend to pack it in on that last two days because I know the next trip may be a few years away. 


The last morning in the parks. Marc and Q started each day out by filling up their cups with coffee.


The Magical gates. 




Last Ferry Boat ride. But you sure can't beat the view! 


I don't know what's more exciting! Seeing the gates to Disney, the Train entrance or seeing the Castle! If you love Disney like I do then you know that feeling of "coming home". 


The architecture at Disney is just amazing! 


We had reservations that morning originally for Buzz Lightyear. But since we had a little bit of time on our hands before our 9:45 Fastpass we thought we would stop in and see if we could meet Tinkerbell for the first time.





I'm not sure if the CM's told Tinkerbell in advance that Q was celebrating her birthday but she got the best welcome ever! Sidenote: Why didn't anyone warn us she was soo chatty ?!!! LOL


Me explaining that this was our first time visiting her!!! 


We had the best interaction with her, and it would become a pattern for the rest of the day!



Don't you just love walking down Main Street? 


Time to head to Tomorrowland! 



The Purple Wall!!!



This was our first time on Buzz Lightyear since the updates to the Q area.



We had a blast!!!


And Q became a Galactic Hero for the first time. 




We finally got to ride the People Mover! I love this ride but the first day at MK the line was insane by the time we made our way around to it. 


Love the view of the castle from here! If you have never rode the People Mover at night you really should! The view is even better.


Since we were in the area and the wait wasn't too long we decided to try out the Monster's Inc Laugh Factory for the first time. I have to admit I wasn't sure what to expect but we really ended up enjoying it!!! 


Me trying to be cool at the Purple Wall. LOL Next week in Part 2 we wrap up our last day in the park with some amazing Character Meet and Greets and say goodbye to Epcot!
