Anyway, our first task of Wednesday morning was packing up our stuff. I took it our to the car whilst Nicky checked out (we could have used the express checkout, but Nicky wanted to admit to one last bottle of water from the mini bar). We decided against the hotel breakfast and headed for the park, thinking that we'd get something there, but then we stopped at Cafe Mickey in the Disney Village for their American Buffet. We'd forgotten that this was a character dining spot, so it was an added bonus when Mickey and Tigger showed up!
After breakfast we went into the park, and first stop, again, was Buzz Lightyear. This time we agreed that no-one would be taking it easy and we'd all be going for a high score. Due to a shot somewhere along the way that got Jake 50,000 in one hit, he was the winner. I came third!
After Buzz I headed for Space Mountain as the wait time said that it was only 5 minutes, whilst Nicky and Jake went to the Nautilus submarine. My wait time was probably even less - I fairly much walked straight on. I have to confess that I didn't enjoy the ride very much - I found it very jerky and my head was getting thrown around a fair bit - it was certainly no Hulk!
Next we decided that it was time for a full circuit on the train, but the Discoveryland station was closed so we walked round to Fantasyland and got on there. After our circuit we headed over to Adventureland, and did a few more things on Adventure Isle, including the Family Robinson treehouse and the suspension bridge, as well as Aladdin's enchanted passage, just so that we could say that we'd ticked it off. Next stop refreshments, and Jake decided to try a toffee apple, which he enjoyed, albeit that he didn't penetrate the toffee layer very much and did get rather sticky.
A tour on the paddle steamer was next, taking lots of photos, of Big Thunder and of ducks, and then it was one last trip to Phantom Manor before making our way back to Main Street for a final bit of souvenir shopping.
Leaving the park we stopped off for sandwiches in Disney Village, and then it was back to the car for the 200 mile drive back to Calais, which was just as straightforward in reverse as it had been on the way down.
We went in to Carrefour at Citi Europe for provisions before going back the the Shuttle terminal, where we scraped together our remaining euros to buy some burgers for tea. Our train was a little delayed, but only 20 mins or so, and we were back home by just after ten.
Here are a few more photos from the trip (lots more on Flickr).
