More Pics

On Tuesday, May 5, we went to Disney Hollywood Studios. This was a tough park to tour, because there are lots of shows that have specific times, which means you can just walk on and do whatever it is.

So, we rode all the rides we wanted to early on. The Evil Twin and Buddy rode Aerosmith's Rock n Roller Coaster:



I'm not a coaster person, so Sissy and I sat and waited for them. Later, Buddy and I rode the Tower of Terror! It was VERY scary, but VERY fun. We were screaming while we experienced it, but laughed when we were leaving!

We also went on the Studio Backlot Tour, and saw lots of really cool things. One thing was this water tower:



The people at Disney call it the "Earful Tower". Of course!

We ate at Sci Fi Dine In that evening:



This picture had the Evil Twin and both children sitting in front of it. I had him photoshop the family out! Cool, huh?

The food was great and it was a really neat experience too.

On Thursday, we went to Animal Kingdom. Each morning, the parks would have some sort of little opening skit to welcome visitors to the park.

My friend, Sarah, wanted me to get a picture of Goofy and this is the only time I saw him around where I could get a picture:



I'm meeting a friend for lunch today, so I must go and get myself ready for the day.

It's almost Friday! It would be nice if we had some sunshine this weekend. We shall see....

  4. I have almost the same picture of that water tower from when I visited MGM 20 years ago. I'm surprised it's still there.

  8. Reggie - I'll try to come up with something creative!

    Ginger - It was really a neat experience.

    wv.agent - You're welcome! I had fun sharing it with you all. :-)

    Paul - MGM is now called Hollywood Studios. But apparently, not much else has changed, huh? :-)

    TGG - Enjoy your lunch as well!

    Lisha - I'm glad we went and took it all in. At least once.

    Dana - I would go in October if I had to do it over again. They have some sweet deals going on right now... (hint, hint).

    Ella - Keep in mind that it's hotter than hades right now. But still fun!

  10. The Sci Fi Diner sounds cool! Do they like beam your food directly to your table? Or are the waitresses Green slave girls like on Star Trek???

  16. Is Minnie cheating with Goofy? Shame. The only thing I remember about Dizzy World was how frizzy my hair was from the humidity.
