We're Back From Our Disney Trip part 2

[darel]

Sunday we went to Epcot.This year,I had bought a new camcorder,a Sony with that pop out screen that you can video with instead of the eyepiece.Worked fine.So we videotaped Epcot again,with fresh scenes with my girls in them.This year was our first time to see the Cranium Command show.We liked it a lot.Did the Body Wars ride again too.Didn't get to do Test Track this year,line was too long and fastpass time wasn't going to work for us.Did the Journey into Imagination again,we liked the old way that the ride was better than this new version.When we hit the Worldshowcase we taped every country again and some things that we had never taped too.Before we got to WShowcase,we ate lunch at the Electric Umbrella.My wife and I both had the grilled chicken sandwich with fries.They were okay,but the chicken was too dry,and a little overcooked.All around the countries,we had a great time.THis year we stopped at the Germany Pavilion,sat down and watched the Tapestry of Nations parade.That was awesome!I got it all on tape.AS we finally reached Norway though,the Maelstrom line was too long so we passed on that.Done it before,more than once anyway.Plus it was getting time for supper.We ate at our favorite Disney fast food place,Cantina de San Angel Inn.WE love it.Plus a highlight,the Tapestry of Nations parade came again and we sat there for a short while and watched it while we finished eating.We ended out our Epcot day by riding Spaceship Earth and then messing around in the area at the exit of the ride,gift shopping and then leaving.We have seen Illuminations years ago,and my girls don't seem to care about seeing it,so we haven't watched it all four years of our trips there with our girls.Tuesday went to the Magic KIngdom and had a good friend of mine that works at Universal Studios to come and spend the day with us there.This year we got to eat at our favorite MK rest.Columbia Harbor House.Last year,it was closed.Food was still the same,good.We waited for my friend to arrive and meet us in front of Space Mtn,so we rode it and Buzz Lightyear's Ranger Spin and the WED way people mover(that is what I still call it),before he arrived.Then we rode Space Mtn and Buzz again with my friend.The whole day was very nice.Yes it was very hot,humid and muggy,but the crowds were minimal and everything went fine.We rode the new ride in AdventureLand,Aladdin's Flying Carpet Ride.it was way too short of a ride.We got a fastpass for Splash Mtn,and while we waited for our time,we waited 15-20 min and rode Big Thunder Mtn Railroad then went to SM and got right on.We did all the major rides and of course I taped a lot again so it would be fresh and updated with my girls.We skipped over Tom Sawyer's Island,the riverboat ride,country bear jamboree(a little boring),carousel of progress(we like it but skipped it),and the Pooh ride and Dumbo ride(lines too long).MIssed the parade at 3:00,but we didn't care.Go to part three for more.
