Disneyworld
Disneyworld was a blast. The weather was perfect. Sunny and warm. I stayed at the Wilderness Lodge. Its really nice there. I love the lobby and the pool and outside areas, and I like how we could take a boat or bus to get everywhere. We went to Disneyworld, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and MGM. I rode Mission: Space and survived. I felt carsick/seasick the rest of the day though. There are barf bags on the ride. The G-force feeling was cool. The room service guy told us that its only 1 G now but Disney employees got to ride it during the test phases and it was 3 G. He said almost everyone who rode at 3 G got sick. There is a new roller coaster at Animal Kingdom. It's great. I'm not a big roller coaster person and I thought it was fun. It goes forward, then backwards in total darkness. It seems like you are falling for a long long time. Rock and Roll Rollercoaster was closed for renovations which was a bummer. There is a car and motorcycle stunt show at MGM that was good.
We met up with Caroline and Shane for a drink the night they arrived. Then they went with us to dinner at the Hoop Dee Doo Review. We drank a lot of Sangria, and afterwards, sat outside and drank some more alcohol. I was pretty well hammered. It was a lot of fun. I even got to talk to Henry! It would have been nice if he was allowed to go to "Lotusphere". Anyway, we left so that Caroline and Shane could get the shuttle to their hotel. Then the rest of us went back into Disneyworld for "extra magic hours" and to ride our favorite rides again. We rode Pirates of the Caribbean and the Haunted Mansion (because some crazy whore ruined it the first time we rode it. I will explain in my next post.) We tried to get to Space Mountain before it closed, and I actually ran to get there. We didn't make it. It was fun enough running through Disneyworld drunk off my ass and giggling like a schoolgirl.
It was really a fun trip, and I wish I could have stayed a few more days. I will have to schedule my future Disneyworld trips in January (hmmm I will check the Lotusphere schedule). The parks weren't really crowded, so it's a good time to go.
