Disney World: Day 7, part 4- making the most of the rain

After we met the mice we stood under the cover for a few more minutes. 
But then we decided we would get back out in the rain and go ride rides. 
Abi put the poncho back on and we jumped out into the rain, splashing and having an awesome time. 
We went to the Winnie the Pooh ride. 

The line was a bit long since it would be indoors. We ended up waiting for about 25 minutes. But it didn't bother us. We were having a blast. 
The girls played in the play area which was something they didn't really get to do when we had fast passes. 









For my dad...


For me. :)





Found a Tigger!


Abi and my mom got in one honey bucket. 


Doug, Maddy, and I got in the next one. 


Blurry.. but Maddy was so excited to be back on her favorite ride again. 


We stopped in the shop on our way out. 
My mom bought both of the girls the tubes that you put this sugar in. 
And Maddy got a baby Winnie the Pooh. 


Then we went straight over to the teacups. 



Then we decided it was time to go try out Gaston's tavern for a snack. 
Hello castle!


We knew we wanted to get in here at least once and try some of the snacks and the LeFou's brew. 


Oh man. The details. The details were amazing. 


We got 2 brews to share. It is like a frozen apple juice with some kind of marshmallow flavor and passion fruit mango foam.
The foam wasn't my favorite. And the whole thing was really sweet. The slushy part was pretty good.
We all enjoyed it.


My mom bought one of the giant cinnamon rolls for us to share and cut it into a bunch of pieces. 
That was delicious. 



I made Doug do this pose. 



It seemed they did use antlers in all of their decorating.



We had a really great time here. 
We just relaxed and talked and enjoyed the little break from the rain. 
It was one of my favorite parts of the day.



The rain was coming down ridiculously hard but after a while we decided to brave it and run across the square to the gift shop. 
I could have bought everything in there. 
But I didn't. 
I did, however, end up buying this guy. 

After shopping for a while we decided to go ride the little Mermaid ride again.


Then noticed this across from it.


The rain was starting to calm down a little.
We walked back past the village.


Abi really wanted to ride Splash mountain again and we needed to head that direction for our dinner reservations so we started walking toward Frontierland. 
Stopped in the Tangled area for the bathrooms again. 


Took a picture of the Columbia Harbour House where we had eaten lunch on Friday. 
The window we were sitting at that had the view of the tower is the set of windows with the red flowers in the window boxes. 


My mom wanted to do a little shopping in the Christmas shop in Liberty square and when we got close we saw that my dad was already waiting outside of Liberty Tree Tavern (our dinner destination) so she grabbed him and they went in to the shop. 
I took Maddy in there for a minute and then we went to the restaurant and let her color at a table while I sat on the couch and watched.  That way my parents could take their time shopping.
Doug and Abi continued to Splash.
