This morning I am at Epcot, enjoying a coffee and pastry at an outdoor table at the little coffee shop (I can't remember what its called) near innoventions across from the big fountain. I am watching the people go by while my kids get their free hour at innoventions. Don't worry I haven't abandoned any toddlers, they are teens and for the small price of an hour in innoventions doing whatever they want, I get to enjoy Epcot for the rest of the day.
Today I'm at Magic Kingdom. I read about the Pinocchio Haus in my Dining Guide 2006 and I've never eaten there before.
So, while at MK, for lunch I decide to try this place out, especially because of the view of the loading area of It's a Small World. So, I get some grub and grab a seat with a view and enjoy my lunch.
I am in Disney's MGM Studios on Rock 'n' Roller Coaster, at the launch point. I am gripping tighly to the handle bars with MUCH anticipation and uncontainable excitement as I glare up at the flashing screen. I hear the radio station come on and Aerosmith sounds! I feel my legs begin to shake and my smile grows, increasingly! ...Three...Two...ONE!!!! I see myself shoot off into the unforgettable ride of both memories and magic! My favorite MGM ride of all time...
Okay now that I have just brought out the excitement in me again, I can't wait, I NEED to be down there NOW!! I CANNOT wait another 2 months!! AH!!
...and my doctor just told me how well I was dealing with this "Disney" problem of mine...
YES, ABSOLUTELY! HERE I AM, LUCKY ENUF TO HAVE JUST EXPERIENCED MY OWN DISNEY VACATION, BUT WHEN I'M AT THAT AIRPORT AND I SEE THOSE PEOPLE BOARDING THE MAGICAL EXPRESS ABOUT TO EMBARK ON THEIR DISNEY VACATION, I AM FUMING WITH JEALOUSY! I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS, BUT THERE IS SOME REMARKABLE FORCE HOLDING ME BACK FROM RUNNING BACK ONTO THAT BUS, BECAUSE NOTHING IS MORE DEPRESSING THEN THE END OF A DISNEY VACATION.
Today I'm at AK, and I'm at the Tusker House sitting outside with a view and enjoying an ice cold, homemade Amber brew. After we finish the beer, we'll make our way over to Kilamanjaro Safari.
I'm at Crystal Palace sitting back sipping my iced tea.. wondering if I should get more lunch or go ahead and start on dessert. i think I'll make a sundae wiht sprinkles! Oh wait... I'm next to meet Tigger! After he leaves, I'll make my Sundae.
I'd be sitting at one of the tables by Mrs. Pott's Cupboard ice cream place by Dumbo, eating a hot fudge sundae, at night, the music flowing, those lights twinkling in the trees, and just watching the park wind down for the night!
