Trip Log:

This morning I slept in until 7am, picked up breakfast at the Beach Club Marketplace and did some packing before setting off for EPCOT to meet some friends.   Spent some time around World Showcase lagoon visiting then explored the United Kingdom doing the twelve days of Christmas scavenger hunt.   We stopped by France for a snack and the American Adventure for some to eat an early lunch as we visited.  Hid under cover from a passing rain cell then continued on to Germany to do some shopping.  As we neared Norway it started to drizzle again so took cover near Mexico for this one to blow through.   Then headed to Connections for the rest of the group to eat lunch. Bid our friends good bye and we set off for the Animal Kingdom.  As we neared the bus stop it started to rain so we ran for cover at the bus stop and as luck would have it our bus was there.  At Animal Kingdom walked out to the Safari and right onto a truck without even having to stop.  Once back headed to the front of the park and boarded a bus for the Grand Floridian.  Took a look at the gingerbread house and Christmas decorations then boarded a Monorail to the Magic Kingdom.   Made a stop at Sleepy Hollow for a snack then caught a bus to the Boardwalk to check out the gingerbread display and Cake Bake Shop.   Stopped by our room to get a sweatshirt and drop off some items then caught a Friendship Launch to Disney’s Hollywood Studios.  Roamed around Hollywood Blvd, Echo Lake and Sunset taking a look at the Christmas decorations and Sunset Seasons Greetings.  Took the Sky Liner back to EPCOT arriving a few minutes before a SpaceX launch.  Found a spot along World Showcase lagoon for the launch.  After the launch decided to try single rider for Ratatouille.   Then walked to the front of the park.  Took a look at the wait for the Land Greenhouses, decided it was too long and hung out in World Celebration Gardens for a bit.  Then returned to World Showcase Lagoon for Luminous the Symphony of Us.  After the show joined the crowd exiting the park. Returned to my room to call it a night.
