Day 7 - Finishing up at Hollywood Studios and Epcot

On our last day, we went back to Hollywood Studios to finish up what we hadn't seen. We got there first thing in the morning to try to beat the heat.


They have a show called, "The American Idol Experience," and it features guests at the park who try out to sing and the winner gets to try out in front of the judges for the real American Idol. The stage is a smaller version of the real Hollywood stage. It was pretty cool since Abby and I watch American Idol together.

Around 3, we left the park and went back to our hotel to pack and get ready to leave. We had dinner that night at Teppan Edo, a Japanese hibachi restaurant in the Japan area of Epcot. Since Epcot was within walking distance of our resort, it was an easy walk there. This is me and Adam at dinner.


This was our hibachi chef. She was pretty funny.


Seth and Abby at dinner. Abby's not the best eater, but she loves steak so she did ok.

Can you tell I was tired of taking pictures by the last day? :)
So that's our vacation. All in all, it was great. If I had to do it over again, I would have planned some of our dinners and breakfasts a little bit better and woken up earlier on more of the days. I don't think I would go in the summer again, even if it means taking the kids out of school. It was just way too hot. But it was a great vacation and I'm thrilled that we were able to give that to our kids.
