So we Finished at Chef Mickey's
And of course we have to check out the Shops...
Boy Found himself a Red Monorail Die-cast...he had been looking everywhere for it...and all the Parks and DTD Store had Black and Gold...Boy wanted Red...and I had told him that if it was anywhere it would be here. One of these days he might figure out Dad knows what he's talking about sometimes.
Funny reaction to our shirts...a CM puts on some Sunglasses from the Spinner before he greets us.
Several...are you all together? A bunch of I love that shirt.
Finaly we get done and go to the Monorail. We opt to skip the Poly for today as we will be back tomorrow and will probably check it out then...or later.
We do get off at the Grand. Go through the door and...I immediately felt out of place. Could be that the illumination just went up about 2000 Footcandles from our shirts...announcing that the Clampets had arrived...but there was just a different feel to the place. The Staff here were very friendly...but some of the guest...just seemed well bored and

.
Once I got over the fact that I was the Elephant in the room I started to take a few Pictures...mel and the Boys of course had to check out all the Shops.
I told Mel I was going Down Stairs and that there was another Store. Sometimes the "rich" can be funny in how they dress. there was this older lady...maybe in her 50's. I'm certain she thought she was pretty in those jeans that probably cost more than my entire wardrobe. I swear I almost started laughing out loud. They were Pinkish...way too tight...the sides of the legs were open the whole length held together with straps and rhinestone buttons...Highheels... Tiny had came down with me and he was staring like a Deer in Headlights.

After we were far enough away...we both started laughing.

I was going to go outside and look around but it had started raining pretty hard...heck even the plants had Umbrellas out...
Well we had eoungh of the GF...probably for a lifetime...pretty place...just not us...even if we were rich...wouldn't be us. Might come pack for a meal sometime...but I think there's plenty other options.
As we went back to the Monorail the rain was a little horizontal...When we got off at the MK we were thankful that we were under a shelter...the Rain was misting so bad I didn't want to take out my camera...but the entry area was Flooded...I'm talking up to peoples Knees flooded...seemed like Main Street USA was floating toward the Seven Seas Lagoon...and it kept just pouring for about 15 Minutes as we watched people scramble here and there. (Was that Pooh Floating by in a "Hunny" Pot.) Finally it stops...it doesn't just slow down...it Stops...weird.
We have to goto the Package Pick-up place to have our items from the Contemp. and Grand sent to our Resort...they wouldn't do it from the resort.
After a sweep thru the Emporium we head to find a the Castle Photopass Photographer. I find him and I asked the stupid question...are you the Castle Phot Guy...he looks at his camera...then the Castle...then back at me like...here's your sign. duh.
Then we head up to the Walt/Mickey Statue...
Now we head over to Tomorrowland...
Next: Tomorrowland...rest of Day 9
