Today we woke up all refreshed and ready to go. Today we have a mission. We are going to see Lightening McQeen. This is the only character that Forrest wants to meet. The first meet and greet is at 9:30. We show up at rope drop and are the second ones in line. Later in the day people stood in line for up to 2 hours to see these guys. Forrest was so excited. I was curious to see how he would react when he saw them. He just stood there in stunned silence. He was completely awestruck.
Matar was in for repairs when we came through . We were able to see him later in the day, bu that is when the line was about 2 hours long. 
After we saw Lightening we headed over and watched Muppet 3-D. It was a cute show. After the show Forrest wanted to ride Star Tours. Since Eliza wasn't big enough I told Shirley to take her over to meet Woody and Buzz. Shirley wasn't quite sure how she was going to react. But as you can see from these pictures she is in seventh heaven. 
She was so excited to meet them and went right up and gave Woody a hug. 
The guy playing Woody was really sweet with her and got right down on the ground so that she could give him a hug. Everyone couldn't believe how cute she was with him.
She was a little scared of Buzz at first, but by the end she was giving him hugs too.
After Meeting these two we headed over to meet the characters from Monsters Inc. Right when we got there Sully and Mike had to take a break. Eliza started to cry when she saw them leave. They soon came out and we were able to meet them too. Eliza kept petting the fur on Sully and touching Mike to make sure they were real. She really got a kick out of it. 
After meeting all the characters that we wanted to meet we went over and watched Lights Motor Action. It is a stunt show with cars. Forrest and Greg really liked all the fancy driving. Forrest was a little worried when they set someone on fire. No matter what we said to him he was never convinced that the guy was okay. Once the show was over we headed home for a quick rest. After dinner we meet up with Scott and Angie and watched Fantasmic. This was an awesome show at one point the whole lagoon in front of the stage was on fire. We all really enjoyed it Here is a clip of the.Fantasmic Show. After the show Greg, Scott, Forrest and I all rode the Tower of Terror. Forrest did really good until they dropped us the first time. He reached for me for comfort, but I was just as freaked out as him. There is something wrong with a ride that drops you so fast that your camera will hover in front of your face. This was definitely not one of my favorite rides. After the ride Scott and Greg ran off to ride a Rockin Roller coaster while Forrest and I headed over to see the Osborne lights. This is truly a sight to behold. They use 5 million lights to light up a small section of the street. They would also have the lights dance to Christmas music. It was one of the highlights of our trip. Once we joined up together again we headed home. Tomorrow we will spend 12 1/2 hours in the park.
