What a trip to NYC last week!!!
Sorry I haven't been posting--simple fact is I have just now gotten a moment to catch my breath. The big news.....
The next day seemed to be a bit more eventful. Since it was my day (a day before my b-day) I took Bob out to a big meal at the Rio. The Rio buffet is one of the best buffets I’ve found. And there is nothing better than to eat a huge meal the day of your birthday.
I am sorry that I haven’t been writing over these past few months—needless to day I have been a little overworked. So over the next few entries, I will try to play catch up.
We hit dinner in Tomorrowland, and if you want Chinese in Disney, it’s pretty lousy. I am sorry I didn’t get a turkey leg when I had a chance.
We finally hit a Mickey event—“Mickey’s a Night before Christmas”. It was done like a short Broadway play, with Disney characters and such. It was well coordinated and a lot of fancy dancers and singers. My thoughts were of all this saccharine made me think there is probably backstage drama behind the scenes. Nice idea for a script. It was fun finally seeing Mickey. The show worked like a well oiled machine. The kids were happy, which were the most important part.
We hit the big mountain train ride, and I was scared at first because I have been prone to motion sickness at times. I however had a good time on the ride, and my motion sickness that I had when I was younger had somewhat disappeared. It was fun. Another tip to consider--when using fast pass, you can use it only one ride at a time. So, no splash mountain for us.
Day 2:
We finally hit “Soarin” which was the best ride in the park. They had a “pre-flight” video with “Cuddy” from “Seinfeld”. It was interesting that Disney got all these stars to be involved in the park. You wonder how much he got to do that. The ride itself was cool, although the transition between scenes really needed to be worked on. Besides that, it was a fun ride. The leaning was accurate and a few surprises made it exciting.
They say that Disney World has a certain way of sparking dreams and imaginations. As you will see, it sparked something in me, as I have to set up several postings for my weekend there. Mainly a lot of observations that I have as an adult. I had gone to Disneyland twice, so I had some experience with the Magic Kingdom. But to see it about twenty years later says something. But two days didn’t really do it justice. I only caught two of the five parks, but they were the major ones.
It’s been an interesting few weeks…
I finally got some news in my life, as things have calmed down. I am now working both Saturday and Sunday now at Mona's, which means that my weekends are pretty much shot. But the money is great--my bribs--I mean tips are up. Which I need during this holiday season.
