Last Park Day

July 9th was the middle day... we didn't have to work, but we didn't have to leave yet.  So Rebecca and I decided to spend the day visiting our favourite spots, and saying goodbye to Disney.

We started the day, not at Disney, but Geocaching.  Geocaching involves finding a small container hidden somewhere.  There's always something hidden inside these geocaches, and Rebecca wanted to add something special.  This geocache was located just outside of The Commons.

  

After finding the geocache we drove to Epcot. We rode Spaceship Earth one last time and went to recreate our Magical Moment during Orientation, when we were welcomed as new Epcot Cast Members.

 
  
We went to say our final goodbyes and thank you's to our managers and then said goodbye to backstage Epcot.  I don't think I'll ever have a reason (or excuse) to go back there again.


After Epcot, we headed to the Magic Kingdom for parades, rides, and shows.  In the evening we had reservations for a final dinner at Citricos.  It was delicious!  I had the chicken and a mango creme brulee!



After dinner it was back to the Magic Kingdom for a couple more rides (you know I had to max out Buzz Lightyear's again), and then our final Wishes.  The only problem was, after Wishes I didn't want to leave.  Then SpectroMagic started so we stayed for that, but Rebecca and I still didn't want to leave.  We stood by the Castle, took pictures, and were eventually dragged out by David and Ali.  It was so hard to leave.


After leaving our last park, we headed back to the Commons for a pool party, and packed to get ready to leave.  You have to be out of Commons by noon on Friday so there wasn't much time to prepare.  Packing was sad and lonely.  Heather had already moved into Patterson Court, so I was all alone in the apartment.  It looked so empty!  It would have been unbearable, but I knew there was still lots to look forward to in the upcoming weeks!
