Oh my gosh are we tired!
We spent the whole day at Disney's MGM Studios. The WHOLE stinkin' day and all of us have tired feet. At Disneyland we are used to those wonderful trams to get us to the park entrance - not here at WDW - we went by boat - a "friendship" to be exact. Took a 15 minute boat ride across the lake (that is right in front of the hotel we are staying in) to the main entrance of the park.
After using our 'key to the kingdom' to get in (oh, you have to place your index finger in a scanner to prove it is your key - cool eh?!) we headed right over to the "Rockin' Rollercoaster" which features Aerosmith. Really cool ride - really fast and really smooth.
Then almost everyone (that is a nice way of saying - NOT ME) went on the Hollywood Tower of Terror. A quick note; the bellhop uniforms are slightly different here - Disneyland's are better looking. After that it was onto the Great Movie Ride where we were treated to animatronic and live action scenes from some movies!
We had reservations for lunch at the Sci-Fi cafe - but they were closed for the day - so we ate at Pizza Planet and relaxed for a while before going to see, Star Tours, shopping, The Magic of Animation, shopping, Indiana Stunt Show specacular, Beauty and the Beast stage show, Back Lot Tour, Lights Motors Action! stunt show, and then Fantasmic! WHEW... Oh, and just after dusk we saw the Osborne family spectacle of dancing lights.
Then, a boat ride back to the hotel and put the kids to bed. Now, Dawn, me, Tim and Michelle are chilling in the lobby of the hotel - they are reading (sheesh, this is a vacation! what's up with reading...) as I blog. Well, that's day 3.
Lot's of fun, food, shopping and exciting stuff to see!
More tomorrow...
Goodnight!
