Disney Day 5: Hollywood Studios and Magic Kingdom

It was here.  Our final day at Disney.  It was bittersweet, I wasn't ready for it to be over, but I was becoming exhausted and wasn't sure how much longer the kids could go on virtually no naps. 
Our 4th and final character meal was scheduled for that morning at Hollywood Studios with the Playhouse Disney crew.  This was one of our favorite meals last time we were there because the kids had so much fun getting up and dancing with their favorite Playhouse Disney characters throughout breakfast.

We arrived at Hollywood Studios early and of course the kids wanted their pictures taken by the tree again.

We had a great time at the Play n Dine breakfast!

While we were at breakfast, we sent Marc out when the park actually opened to get Fast Passes for Toy Story Mania again.  (Yes, it was that much fun!) 
When we left breakfast we made one detour over to Rock n Roller Coaster to see if they were open again.  Turned out they were, and Andrew got to ride the only roller coaster he had not yet ridden.  Also, the first one he's been on that goes upside down!  He loved it and said it was, "awesome."  Unfortunately we only got one ride in as the line had gotten considerably longer when we came out and it was time for our fast passes at TSM.

Emma was all about characters at this point.  Any time she saw one she wanted to get in line to get their autograph and picture (even if we had already seen them 2 or 3 times)  Mary Mac made a good point at one time during the week.  She wanted to know why no one was asking for her autograph and taking pictures with her because she is beautiful too.  LOL  Nothing wrong with that girls ego, huh?

Mary Mac was my riding partner this time.

Our final scores, I was the blue, and she was the red.  Marc still got best in vehicle score with 138,000.  :)

When we left Hollywood Studios we went back to Magic Kingdom to end our visit.  We had a 3:00 parade viewing scheduled through AAA on their special viewing platform at the train station.

They were all calling out to all the characters and waving as they went by.

Outside the gates of Magic Kingdom before leaving.  :(

MK closed early on Thursday for Mickey's Very Merry Christmas party, so we went back to the hotel and ate dinner in the food court, then took our free arcade vouchers and played some games.  I was going strong all day, and then when I sat down at dinner, all the exhaustion hit me.  We were all worn out from a wonderful Disney vacation. 
I can't wait to do it all again when Emma's 5.  :)
