Hi Everyone, 

I will be making another post after I am done with my Make-A-Wish trip. I have so much to tell you all. 


Are you all ready for part 6 (the final post) of my Make-A-Wish trip??? Remember, up above you can click on other parts to see if you missed any. :) 



Today is my last day here. We had a slow morning, and maybe that is why I was a bit off, cranky and agitated throughout the day. Mom decided to let me sleep in some, so she tried the curbside breakfast option. She said it was pretty cool. 

You call the number for curbside breakfast between 8-10a.m., then they bring a cart of food and you meet them out front of your villa at the curb. She got a bagel and yogurt. They had other items like cereal, juice, milk, toasting stuff, etc. 

With it being my last day, we decided to go back to Magic Kingdom since we didn't get to do a lot there the other day. I still wanted to do / see a few things.





  The weather was much nicer too. Afterwards, we made a fast trip to Island of Adventures to exchange my outfit for the right size - that was FUN! I seem to be doing better by then. 
Oh, and we decided to take the ferry over to Magic Kingdom from the parking lot, then monorail back. 





I got to go on the Jungle Cruise.. This one is very different than Disneyland. There is even a tunnel we went through that was kind of scary. 
This was the name of our boat.. 




I got to go see Tinker Bell and Periwinkle. 





I went on Pirates of the Caribbean, but I wasn't all that crazy about it. It was just too dark for me. Mom too. It is kind of interesting though to see the differences between the same rides here and at Disneyland. 


After that, I got to see Chip & Dale. 




Now off to Winnie the Pooh ride, and to see Pooh and Tigger.





 


   

I really like Pooh.. 



Next, I went to see White Rabbit. I wasn't really in the mood to visit. 







A Dream Come True Parade
I loved watching the parade. A lot of the characters came up to me. 







 It was so cute... As soon as Lilo saw me, she went over and got Stitch to come see me. :)  






 That was the end of our day at Magic Kingdom. We left there, and went over to Island of Adventures to exchange my outfit that I got there for a different size before heading back to the village. 






It was around sunset time when we got to Island of Adventures, and that is my favorite time to be outside. I loved the quick outing to the store and back. Then we had to get back to our villa to start packing, plus I had my tuck-in with Mayor Clayton tonight. 


Upon returning to my villa, I had a few gits. My star passport that has the code to tell me the where my star is in the Castle of Miracles. Then there is my TSA contact and time to meet in the morning at the airport. There is a volunteer group of TSA agents that meet people with special needs to help them with their bags, get through security and to your gate. 



I am helping mom pack. I wasn't crazy about staying in as I really wanted to go out in the village, but our flight leaves at 7a.m. EST, and we hadn't packed at all. Mom should of started yesterday, but neither of us thought of it. 

I am sound asleep on the couch taking a nap. Mom is getting a little concern because my "tuck-in" with Mayor Clayton is 9:30p.m. EST and its almost that time. 



I woke up about 10 minutes before he got to my villa. We heard a loud knock on the door. Mom answered it and sure enough, it was Mayor Clayton and his assistant. He came to tuck me in to bed. :) Since its still early on my time, I just had him tuck me in on the couch (I pretended I was going to bed) instead of having mom take me in the room and put me in bed. Mayor Clayton moved the coffee table out of the way, pulled my blanket up, tucked it in around me. He then put Cubby and Mickey in place, and hand-signed a heart to me. Then he turned around to take a photo with me. He gave me a kiss and hand signed good-bye. I wasn't sure what to think of all this, but Mom thought it was cool. 







We got up sooooo early as we had to leave the village at 5:00a.m. EST (2a.m. Cali time) to go to the airport. Neither one of us were ready to go home, but it sure was a fun week. It was chilly, but looked like it was going to be a lovely day. 


 We checked in with lots of help, and security was a breeze. They didn't even do half of what they did at LAX. We went to our gate to wait for our flight. 



Mom and I came to the conclusion that Delta just doesn't have very good customer service and not very helpful at all. Both airports, both flights. 

I had a good flight home. I slept quite a bit with mom holding me as that is where I felt the most secure. And luckily, I had a nice man sitting next to me was understanding. I did watch part of my Princess Barbie movie on my iPad. 



We got to LAX and when I received my wheelchair, it was damaged. Mom had to try to fix it just enough to get me to the Limo and home. Delta is not an airline we will use again. :( Mom finally got my chair to work, and we stopped our Limo driver from leaving the airport. He thought we weren't coming since we were so late. I was so tired, but really enjoyed the Hummer Limo ride home. The inside had sparkling lights all over the place. So cool! 





And so, my Make-A-Wish trip came to an end.
