I got the kids dressed and ready while the motha hosed herself off. Just as we were about to leave
I had a visitor knocking loudly on my door
I didnt want to answer this door though. As I knew who it was. It was my dear friend Phillameana M. Snipey
otherwise known as P.M.S. Today
would be a wonderful day. I could feel my fangs growing longer by the minute. Yay for me
and anyone who got in my way.
We were out to the buses by about 9:45
and by we, I mean, me, Jon, the motha, Lexie, and Phillameana. We got to Epcot at about 10:15. Not too bad for a sleepin in morning. Not in my book anyways!
We headed straight for Nemo
one of Jons favs
Notice how happy the chilluns look after I blasted them awake this fine morning. Heh heh.
Just for your own knowledge
my face probably looked the same.
I tried threatening them with repeated rides on Figment
but that still didnt make them smile.
I found out when our trip was over that my motha was taking pictures on Nemo. I couldnt believe that they actually turned out?!?!? Are you supposed to take pics on Nemo????
Whoa
momma musta been drunk when she took that Crush pic. Im JK people
the motha doesnt drink. Shes far too uptight for that!
From Nemo we headed straight to Turtle Talk. I knew Lexie would loooove this show.
But dang kids. Quit the pushin and shovin to get into the show! It aint that important okay?
The show, was of course, cute as can be. EXCEPT
the jokes were the same. From a year ago. Lets flip the script people. Please. There are Disney fanatics that return year after year
and we need some new material. Momma needs a new pair o shoes
k?
After TT, we decided to explore the magic of The Seas. We have never looked around here before. (ducking while you throw rotten fish) I know
I know
I had no idea. That anything even existed. Beyond all of the animated sea creatures.
We walked around and caught some good pics of neat fish (there is no such thing as fishes), coral, and even a dolphin!
Lets all oooooh and ahhhhh over the sea life kids. Dont pollute the oceans. Seriously.
Was that a little bit of a letdown? I guess I only loaded 3 of those pictures. Heh heh.
After we walked through the aquariums
I walked us around to a group of people standing looking over something. I couldnt tell what everyone was staring at. Hey
I admit it
Im a sheep.
We happened upon a little manatee pool. And when I say LITTLE
I mean freakin little. Pool little manatee.
BUT
we walked up at just the right time.
CM: Hey kids
would you like to feed the manatees??
Lexie and Jon: Sure manatee man!
Which basically meant
Jon and Lexie got to hurl lettuce at the poor little manatee in his little bitty pool. Good times
good times.
After feeding Mr. Manatee, the chilluns, the mother, myself, and Phillameana schlepped over to The Land.
Jon and I headed straight for Soarin! Lexie was too little for this ride
BOOOOOOO! But, I needed some wind in my hair
to get the meanies out!
Jon and I scored row 1
for the 2nd year in a row! Yea baybee!
We walked out and met the motha
and walked over to another ride we had never done before
Living With the Land
otherwise known as Yawn City. Sorry for any fans out there. I looked over in the middle of the ride
and Jon had checked out. As in
he was falling asleep! The people listening to the script were none too happy as I started to guffaw and belly laugh at my little sleeping man. I got a shush from the galley. Whatever.
I smell a Lapu!
I wanna grow one of these myself
OMWord! That was boring. I would equate it with Ellen
but not as good napping potential due to the shortness of the ride!
From Yawn City
we headed over to eat. At Sunshine Seasons! We had to do the hover and swoop here
just like the other day at Cosmic Rays. What is it with people not leaving me a place to sit???
And for the record
the motha had the vegetable panini
full o carbs. Irony is not lost on me friends.
All I cared about was my Diet Coke
***Which brings me to an aside
is it BAD to get a headache after not drinking a diet coke for a day? What do they put in those suckers anyways that makes them so gosh dern addicting? Crack? M&Ms? Morphine with a hint o Pirate Orlando? Hook me up to the drip dudes
supplemented with some pina colada just for an occasional break.
Anywhoodles
after lunch, we headed straight over to what has got to be the strangest ride in all of WDW
Figment. Ummmm
yea
feel free to throw your vote in here
but that ride
was weird. And will be a no-go for us in the future. If Im sober anyway. I just didnt get it. Sorta like that time my Uncle Chip walked around the western store in his khaki shorts, hot pink felt cowboy hat, and red alligator boots yelling, Hey GIRLFRIEND! I didnt get that either.
By now
it was nearing 1:30. And it was hot. And Phillameana kept tapping me on the shoulder to remind me that she was still, hopelessly, utterly ever-present.
We were done with all of Future World that we wanted to partake of. I could taste the AC now.
But nooooooo. SOMEONE (the motha) wanted to look at the pretty buildings over in World Showcase. I tried to be agreeable
I really did. I only had one plan. Get. Done. Fast.
We decided to enter through Canada, eh? It was aboot one million degrees by this time
and Jen needed a sit.
Did I neglect to say that it was Flower and Garden Festival this week? Well
it sure was! Well, hot dog people! Color me allergy redish pink! (those pics coming in another update)
Just as were aboot to enter Canada eh
we happened upon a little booth with dormant flowers
otherwise known as expensive sticks. Well, my motha just hadta stop! If theres something she loves more than working out
its gardening. Because you burn calories when you sweat in the sun!
So, Jen, Jon, and the Lex-meister popped a little sit on a bench. And thats when it happened for the FIRST time this trip
Heres a hint
Any guesses or prophesies???
Up Next: Ow
Me and My Caballeros!
