Today was another good day. Five of us rode Soarin', the new thrill ride at Epcot that really feels like you're flying. The men (being prone to motion sickness) took Lindsey to see characters instead. We had to walk with a mob of people to get in line, but since we were there at park opening, we still only waited 10 minutes. Sam was a little scared when he was strapped in, but said it was the best ride ever afterwards. We all loved it.
Other high points:
*The character breakfast at Polynesian. The kids loved it although Sam did not eat one thing at the buffet breakfast.
*Turtle Talk with Crush - both Maria and Sam were 2 of about 5 kids who got to talk to Crush. Very cool but hard for Smith kids, and was the last straw for Lindsey who headed back to hotel for nap with Andy.
*Sam refused to do Test Track, so he and I did aquarium and shopped, then headed back. Ben, Lisa S, Maria and Mason stayed to ride Test Track and loved it, but admitted it would be too much for Sam.
*The families split for the evening, and we went to Downtown Disney, had dinner at Wolfgang Puck Express, and shopped for Legos (Sam) and hat and clothes (Maria). Then we watched the Magic Kingdom fireworks in our pajamas on our balcony, even though we're in rooms without a view!
