Day 2: Epcot and Hollywood Studios

Today was a park day and this time Paige bought park hopper passes which means you can come and go between the parks.  Today was Epcot day but she selected some fastpasses for us at Hollywood Studios.  Epcot had extra magic hours for all guest staying at Disney Resorts so even though the park opened at 9:00, we were able to go in at 8:00.  We headed straight to our favorite ride, Soarin' followed by Test Track.  Samantha absolutely loves building the car at Test Track.  We did a couple more rides and character visiting prior to heading to the World Showcase.  In the World Showcase we started with Mexico prior to heading to our lunch reservation in China.  We had never eaten at the Nine Dragon but it was very good.  One of Samantha's favorite things to do at Epcot is to go to all of the countries and get their stamp and drawing on a Duffy.  While making our rounds we get to do a little shopping and tasting.  In France we had planned to stop and get some dessert prior to making our way over to Hollywood Studios; the chocolate mousse is incredible.  After France we decided to head over to Hollywood as we had FastPasses for Star Tours at 4:45.  This was Samantha's first time on the ride and she was a trooper.  She says she does not like Star Wars but she enjoyed the ride.  Next it was off to Pizza Planet for dinner prior to doing our FastPass for Toy Story Mania.  As we left we had to go check out the lights and snow at the Osborne Christmas Light Show.  On our way out of the park we hit our final fast pass The Little Mermaid which meant we got good seats up front.  After that it was off to head back to the Epcot to hit the KIDSCOT for England and Canada prior to calling it a night and heading back to the hotel.  A busy day but a very fun day!!!
