Art of Animation is almost a mirror image of Pop Century except is themed with the movies Cars, Little Mermaid and Nemo. We walked over for lunch.

Frozen Fireworks Finale
Last part of Frozen Fireworks. Harry slept through the whole thing.
Off Kilter
Video of Off Kilter, video is not great but you can hear a sample of their sound.
After dinner at Le Cellier we walked over to Hollywood Studios and watched the Frozen Fireworks Spectacular. (The same one we keep watching from our balcony at Pop Century)
Dinner at Le Cellier
Dinner at Le Cellier. I had the dry aged boneless ribeye and Leanne had the Filet Mignon. My steak was huge but I finished it. Leanne and I agree probably the best steaks we’ve ever had. They should be since they are definitely the most expensive steaks of our lives. The meal came in around $170 I think. I can’t remember if that included the tip or not. It was dimly but adequately lit inside, perfect for sleeping. My favourite part was that the menus were backlit. I took a picture but it might be easier to see in the picture of Leanne with the guy behind her reading his menu. Leanne had the grapefruit ginger spice cake and I had the maple creme brûlée. Very good. Leanne had her dessert to go as Harry woke up as soon as we finished our entrées.

Dinner at Rose and Crown
Our meals at the Rose and Crown: I had the grilled NY strip steak and fried fish with Yorkshire pudding, beans and mashed potatoes, and Leanne and Harry had the shepherd’s pie with lamb in it. We all enjoyed the sticky toffee pudding for dessert. The whole meal was very enjoyable. We’d definitely go back to this restaurant.
Colouring at the Rose and Crown
Our table at the Rose and Crown in Epcot’s UK pavilion had a great view. Harry had lots of fun colouring (and he enjoyed the food too).
Harry met Alice
We were wandering around the UK pavilion before dinner and stumbled across Alice in one of the shops. “Hello sir, what is your name?” she asked Harry.
Photo in front of Tree of Life
Animal Kingdom is under heavy construction for Avatar land. There are construction walls everywhere, especially surrounding the tree. We only really saw one spot to actually get a decent picture in front of the tree.
