"disney's hollywood studios" or "extra magic hours"

Disney! Day Two!!

We got up this morning at 8:15 and got ready for a MAGICAL day! :)

We got out of the hotel at about 9:00 and took a ten minute walk to Disney's Hollywood Studios! (aka MGM) First we went to get a FastPass for Toy Story Midway Mania! We went on this one in California, and it is an AMAZINGGGGG ride. Our fastpass was for about 12:15! So, we went back and went on the Tower of Terror (no wait) and then over to Rock N Roller coaster! It had a 30 minute wait, but we did the "Single Rider" line, and there was no wait at all!

We went on The Great Movie Ride, The Voyage of the Little Mermaid, and the animation tour thingy. We got our picture with Fantasia Mickey, The Incredibles, and the best was the charachters from Up! I LOVED the old man! He was great!

Then we went to Pizza Planet for lunch, and the backlot tour. Finally, it was time for MIDWAY MANIA!! It was soooo amazing! Probably the best ride here! It makes the old Toy Story ride in Magic Kingdom look crappy by comparison!!

Then we headed back to the hotel for a break! we got back and tried to plan out our dinners for the rest of the week because things are really booking up!

Then we went in the pool here! They do the coolest thing at 4:15 every day! The lifeguards get up and DANCE! It was really funny. One named Michael was dancing sooo ridiculously, it was hilarious!!

We were in the pool for a while, went down the water slide, all that good stuff!

Then we came back, I took a shower, we sorted out the dinner stuff, and then we went to Magic Kingdom!!! They had EXTRA Magic Hours tonight, so it was open until 12!!

We went on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority and it was cool, such a weird ride, but I love it... and it was even cooler because Space Mountain is closed for refurbishment (sadly) but the part where the TTA goes through Space Mountain, you could see the inside of it WITH THE LIGHTS ON! Wild!

Then we had dinner, just a counter service, at the Friar's Nook, where they had really good Chicken Parm sandwiches! I had Jello for dessert! lol This dining plan is crazy. I have been getting dessert with every meal, and surprisingly I have had room for it all! Disney is a workout!

After that we hurried over to the front of the castle to see the Wishes fireworks show! Very nice.

Then we went on Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, then got a Fast Pass for Peter Pan's Flight, It's a Small World, and went on Splash Mountain (no wait)!!! It was really nice at night, I don't think I've done that ride in the dark before.

We went to the Enchanted Tiki Room, and then Aladdin's Carpets, and the Mad Tea Party! We still had time to kill for our Peter Pan Fast Pass, so we did Mickey's Philharmagic, then went on It's a Small World AGAIN, and then finally Peter Pan.

It was about 11:20 when we were done, but we were EXHAUSTED so we headed back to the hotel! Now we're getting ready for bed.

EXHAUSTED!!

Animal Kingdom tomorrow morning, then Epcot in the evening!!!!

One last note... I have decided to make a list of the Cast Members who have made my Disney trip more magical, either Directly, or indirectly! Directly meaning they actually interacted with us, inderectly meaning they were either nice from afar.. or we good looking. haha

So far we have:
-Jonathan from "University of South Alabama" at the Diamond Horseshoe restaurant.
-Sean and Michael, Lifeguards at the Beach Club pool!
-Amy & Caressa (from Geneseo) at the Diamond Horseshoe

Okay.. Bed time!!

Goodnight. :)
