Disney Day 3-Hollywood Studios

By day 3 Emily was pretty exhausted. She managed to stay at the park until lunch time...lunch was when the meltdown began. After a quick lunch, I carried Emily all the way back to the bus stop and she and I went back to the hotel so she could rest. She took a long overdue nap and even had time to swim for a little while. Meanwhile, back at Hollywood Studios, Cooper and Richard were having a great time.

Let me back up a little bit...

Our first ride of the day was on Rock N Roller Coaster. Cooper loved it! It was his first time to ride a roller coaster that went upside down. You can tell from the pictures he was pretty excited! (I think he rode it 3 more times before we moved on to the next ride)



Up next was the Tower of Terror. Believe it or not, but this was Emily's favorite ride. There were grown men that were scared to ride it, but not little 4 and 1/2 year old Emily!! I can't even count how many times we rode that ride! She and I went to the Little Mermaid show and the Beauty and the Beast show. I thought Beauty and the Beast was really good. By the time it was over it was time for lunch. And this was when the meltdown started (I won't share about all the whining and tears but it was very unpleasant!!) So off to the hotel she and I went while the boys stayed at the park.

Cooper got to participate in a show where he trained to become a Jedi. He thought this was super cool!! The sad part was that the Star Wars ride was closed so he did not get to ride it. But he had a great time getting pictures made with Star Wars guys and looking at all the fun toys!

Daddy had to pose with them too

They saw a couple of action packed shows that they really enjoyed and played on a playground from the movie Honey I Shrunk the Kids.


The low point of the day for Cooper was when they went back to ride Rock N Roller Coaster one last time and he was not tall enough. Apparently we shrink throughout the day....who knew! Anyways...that made for a very sad little boy! They meet us back at the hotel and then we went to Epcot for dinner and a few more rides. We had some yummy Mexican food and the kids posed for some fun pictures. We watched a few fireworks and then quickly headed back to the hotel to get some sleep!!
