Day 7 (part 1) - Wednesday, November 17, 2004:
CAST OF CHARACTERS:
MOM - (k/n/a Donald Duck) 57 year old somewhat disney nut.
ME - 34 year old DISNEY NUT who has had to wait one full year for her Disney fix.
TODAY'S AGENDA:
1. Day in transition
2. Magic Kingdom
3. Epcot
Today was originally planned as MK in a.m. - break at lunch, swimming at Luna Park with Evening in Epcot and 2nd dinner at LeCellier. Well it went this way but barely.
8:00 a.m. apparently Donald Duck woke up in my room room this morning. 8:00 a.m. ringy, ding dong. Donald Duck (f/k/a my mother) told me to inform the mouse to kill himself. Well Donald that isn't very nice. Anyway I'm up then the irate Donald informs me about the headache that kept her up as well as the backache and that she isn't moving out of the bed. Okay I know how to deal - mom is in pain and isn't very nice when she is like this so I'll leave Donald to quack about it on her own.
At 8:40, I am dressed, have sunscreen on and am waddling down the hallway until my back kinks work themselves out while eating a breakfast bar. On the bus to MK by myself (no bags or camers, just me and a small pack with tickets and money). Personally I was very happy to be heading there by myself (of course sorry to see Donald in such a fowl mood but golly gee I can deal with it).
I enter MK right after opening and of course have to head over to Space Mountain. From 9:10 until 10:45 I rerode SM continously as there wasn't a wait in the line (okay maybe there is something wrong with me but I don't care to know what it is). I was going to quit riding around 10:10 but the CM's began warming up the other side (not sure which side is Alpha or Omega) so then I had to ride that side.
I walked out and had to ride TTA, BL, then headed off for HM, BTMRR (2 times) and Splash Mtn. At this point it was around 1:00, stopped for some fries on way to PoC before leaving the park to head back to the BW.
What a day I'm having and boy is it flying by fast.
I arrive back at the room sometime after 2 p.m. and Donald is up and walking around fixing a ham sandwich for herself. Gee can I have half of a sandwich, sure. Well at least mom is closer to her personality than Donald's at this moment. After eating I told her that I wanted to go swimming again at Luna Park as the pool slide would be on and she stated that she was in no rush and would probably do a load of laundry at this point.
Off to Luna Park I go. I went down the pool slide at least 10 times over the next hour and a half. I had a ton of fun and only sat in the hot tub about 10 minutes (it certainly felt hotter today). This is a wonderful way to take an afternoon break. I decided to head back up to the room shortly after the pool party began (around 4ish) and brought back 2 pinacolodas and an order of nachos to snack on (about $16 I think).
Back to room to enjoy food/drinks, clean clothes and getting refreshened for Epcot.
RECAP:
Riding SM a gazillion times -
Alone time in MK -
Luna Park slide/pool fun -
Mom decides that she can go to Epcot so on to part 2.
