DAY 2- MONDAY 6TH JUNE 2005
Everyone was awake by 7(some earlier than others!). We had a booking for Café Mickey at 7.30. We walked by the lake and it started to rain as we went. The breakfast was good with 8 different characters, so we got lots of autographs and plenty of photos were taken . Wed bought the autograph book the evening before and my sister had sent a big orange pen for DS to use which the characters seemed to like, especially Goofy who wanted to take it as it was the same colour as his jumper. We hadnt told DS about the character breakfast( just said we had to be somewhere by 7.30, he only guessed when we got to Café Mickey). We left the café just before 9 and went back to the hotel to swap the fleeces wed had on for waterproofs.
DS decided that it was his choice of what to do, so Studio here we come. It rained all day so we tried to do most of the inside things. The first ride we did was RnR which was a walk on, of course Id left Simons book in the hotel so it was a bit of a shock to all 3 of us (DS had to be rewarded for doing the ride by getting the pin).We watched the Lilo & Stitch Catch the Wave Party and were enjoying it but then it was cancelled due to the rain. Cruella De Vil was also cancelled that day. We had lunch at Restaurant en Coulisse and enjoyed it. We did a few more rides , the Studio Tram Tour stopped due to technical difficulties when we were nearing the front of the queue so we managed to get a note to allow us back on later without having to queue again . We went to the Stunt show which we all enjoyed and then we went back to the Tram tour and enjoyed it (especially as it was DH who got wet!!). DS had bought a pin trading starter set that morning so he was quite pleased when a CM there traded with him. We left the studio just after 5 to go to Buffalo Bills Wild West Show in the village. (Wed intended to go back to the hotel before this but we had run out of time).
We got to Buffalo Bills and were very near the front of the queue for this. When we went in we got tickets for row 1 in the red section. DS loved the hat as hed seen people with them the evening before but didnt realise that everyone got one. We had a drink at the bar and then enjoyed the music and other entertainment. We really enjoyed the show, DS loved all the clapping and cheering at the beginning to get you in the mood (and the banging of cutlery). All our cheering for Kansas didnt work as the yellow team (forgot their name) won .We decided that this had been well worth the money. DS had wanted to do this when he saw it in the brochure but we didnt tell him until we went to queue for it. We told him that we couldnt get it for his birthday but this was his birthday treat now. He accepted this so it meant the next day which was his actual birthday he wasnt expecting anything. We walked back to the hotel , I think the rain might have stopped by then and we were all in bed by 10.30. More soaps in the room ( I liked this bit).
