Downtown Disney

We did make it to Downtown Disney one day to do some shopping and check out the scene. It was sort of a planes, trains and automobiles kind of day. We took the monorail to Epcot in the morning then when were done with the park we took a bus to the Saratoga Springs Resort where we had to switch buses to get the one to Downtown. Well OF COURSE Colton had to go to the bathroom and we missed our bus we had been waiting a half hour for by about 30 seconds so we decided to take the boat over. Well the boat didn't come right away and we could see Downtown so we decided to walk, but started to walk the wrong way so we turned around and thought we had missed the boat but it actually hadn't come yet so we debated and debated and decided to wait for the boat. Well plenty of people had now walked in front of us while we talked about it, the boat came and low and behold it was too full and we were the only ones not let on and we were told that we were going to have to wait another 30 minutes for the next one to come. We swore everyone on the boat was laughing at us and we sort of hated them (for being on the boat) and we sort of hated the Saratoga Resort and swear we won't be back. In the end we walked over, killing our buzz from Epcot and working off the good food we were getting ready to eat! It was a LONG day and I think we can laugh about it now. ;)

At Downtown Disney Wally bought Colton a special car at that make your own car store...I think it is a dad and son dream shop. You pick the rims, the wheels, frame, details...then you use power tools to build it. So cool. He also had Nana make one for Brayden, a special Lightening McQueen. Downtown was definitely happening and we had fun hitting all the stores and collecting more souvenir pennies (you know those stupid penny machines that get designs pressed into them...the boys each had a book and when they were good they got to get a new penny).
