Ok...its later.

Day 5 - Magic Kingdom (again)
We decided that since we needed a day of rest, we would go to the pool and do Magic Kingdom to see SpectroMagic again.

The pool at Coronado Springs was very relaxing. I needed a day to just "chill." We ate lunch by the pool, took a nap and then were very well rested...rested enough to possibly get a good seat for "Wishes."

All in all it was a good day - after all, it was our actual anniversary....9 years (who wouldda thunk it?)

Day 6 - Illuminations
Today was another day at Epcot. We woke fairly early for being on vacation and went to breakfast. After a relaxing breakfast, we headed towards Epcot. It was blistering hot that day. Now, keep in mind that Chicago weather is very unpredictable in itself. One minute it can be 20 below zero and one minute it can be close to 100 degrees. So Im used to hot weather...and yes, even humid weather. It was just our luck, though, that according to the meteorologists on local television, Florida (particularly Orland0) was having one of its hottest summers. The temperature was about 94 degrees with heat indexes in the 100's. HOT HOT HOT! Needless to say, the heat was slowing us down a bit.

After a bit of roaming around Epcot, we had enough, decided to go back to our room to relax a bit and then come back later - for Illuminations! We are so glad we did. We were rested and were able to wait around (longer than most who had been at Epcot all day) for a great place to watch the show. We found an out of the way group of table with umbrellas close to the water near Morocco. There we sat, had something cool to drink, met a nice family and watched the show. It was spectacular.
