Y HELO THAR MICKEY
Aug. 5th, 2007 09:55 pmI am in Orlando! I have gotten in my first day of Disney goodness! It was done at Epcot! I am tired, and suffering from sore feetses, but it was quite fun! I'm desperate to get some writing in, now that I know what I want to write, so I'll do a quick list of things seen and then get to it before I have to go to bed.
--Golf ball! <3 for giant golf ball. Apparently they're taking down the giant sorcerer Mickey hand that was waving a wand over the golf ball. To be honest, I'm glad to see it go. Call me a golf ball purist. ^_^;
--Soarin' is still awesome, but for some reason, the wind *really* bothered my eyes this time. But that's okay, because it still rocked. <3 for flying.
--This really weirded me out: the Battlestar Galactica theme played while we were waiting to get on Soarin'. Does Disney own Galactica's ass, and I don't know about it? Hm.
--MANATEE. MANATEE. MAN. UH. TEE. They have a manatee at the Living Seas. This was my first time seeing an honest to goodness manatee! Sadly, we only saw him briefly, because he was floating to where we couldn't see him anymore, but that's okay, because I SAW HIM. HE WAS EATING LETTUCES. WITH HIS FINS. I DIED OF CUTE. SQUEE.
--The only real disappointment of the day: There was no blue police box in the England pavilion. Sadness.
--Apparently, when I put my mind to it, I can buy a lot of crockery. Something I've done the past couple of times we went to Epcot is go to the Japan pavilion and get some little sauce bowls/dishes/etc. Since Dad no longer travels and we won't be able to stay at hotels on points anymore, it's gonna be a very long time before we can come back again. So, I decided to get my desire for cute bowls out of my system. It took...um...more than I expected to do that. *slight embarassment*
Tomorrow, Animal Kingdom! Excitement! Will we be able to brave the mass of tourists soas to brave the Yeti? We'll find out tomorrow, same bat time, same bat channel!
