Since we had the 2 big rides out of the way for the day, we decided to get bite to eat, and a quick smoke for DW. Can't remember the name of the place we had lunch, but it was close to RR.
We explored MGM quite a bit before heading over to Star Tours. We had to wait about 45 minutes in line, but we met a nice family from Massechusetts. We told them we were from Louisiana, and they asked a ton of questions about Katrina and all. Actually, this happened just about every time someone asked us where we were from. Everyone was curious about the damage and the cleanup efforts. We also let them know how grateful we were for all the help people had sent to Louisiana after Katrina last year. Back to Star Tours. It was fun. Just like Star Tours in
Disneyland. When we stepped off the ride, we gave our fast passes for RR to the couple we had been talking to. We didn't want to have to race back across the park to use them, so they gave the passes to their teen daughters and they raced off.
While we were in the vicinity, we stopped and watched the Muppet
show. Not quite as entertaining as It's Tough to Be A Bug, but still cute. Oh, almost forgot. We also wento into the Indiana Jones Stunt Show. The show wasn't what I expected. I wish MGM had an Indiana Jones ride like the one at Disneyland. Still more shopping after the show, and more pictures. (We took 500+ pictures in the 6 days we were in Florida).
After all the walking around, and exploring, we found Sci-Fi Dine in Theatre. It wasn't quite time for our dinner reservations, but we checked to see if we could get in early, and we were seated about 45 minutes early. The food was great
And we loved the Horror Movie Clips on the big screen. DW and I found out we love spinach artichoke dip (totally awesome)
The onion rings, dip, steaks and potatoes were all great
.... BUT.. they RUINED the veggies... YUCKO BROCCOLLI
When we finished up with dinner, it was close to 7PM. Since I had been to the fireworks shows at Disneyland before I told my DW that we had better get over to Fantasmic so we could find a good seat. She said it was too early, but I told her people start to line up more than an hour before the shows. I'm glad she listened to me (this time
) We were close to the front of the waiting area when they opened up the ampitheatre. We chose to sit near the back of the ampitheatre, so we could be ahead of the crowd when the show was over. We got some sodas and some carmel corn while we waited an hour plus for the show to start. We weren't sure if they were actually going to put on a show, because it had been sprinkling a little bit, and there were some thunderstorms earlier in the day. While we waited, we got a good picture of a rainbow over the stage.
While we were waiting for the show to start, there were some rude people sitting just to the left of us. Every couple of minutes they were up and down wanted to get past us. Looking for their friends, and going to get soda and food. If it was once or twice, it would have been ok, but they must have gotten up about 20 times. Once the show started though they settled down.
Our camera doesn't take great night photos, but we managed a few pictures of the show.
After the show, we headed straight for the exit to the park and back to the bus stop. We waited for the 2nd bus this time, DW's feet were still aching (now from 3 days in the parks - no telling how bad they will feel after tomorrow). When we got back to CBR, we refilled our mugs at Port Royale, and DW got a couple more charms for her bracelet we made for her the night before. Now back to the room to clean up and get some rest for our big day at Magic Kingdom.
More to come ... Day 5 Magic Kingdom
"Where ya from? How long are you here? What have you enjoyed so far?"
Our picture is kinda funny. I don't know exactly what I'm trying to point at... You can tell how much we enjoyed it. Look at those stupid grins on our faces.
