Disney is awesome! If you have never been, you should go. I know it sounds corny, but it really is magical. It is like Great America, but better in any conceivable way. Honestly, nothing would please me more in life than to be the director of the Magic Kingdom and be responsible for the magic. I don’t know how you get that job, or if it even exists, but I would like it. There was one point when we were watching the closing fireworks show over Cinderella’s castle at the Magic Kingdom that I was just so excited and happy that I felt a little like crying. This is not usually and just made me very happy. Then Gina and I switched hats and gave MANY people a good laugh. (If you would like to see the hats you can view them amongst our pictures at http://briefcase.yahoo.com/peschtra).

But like I said Disney is awesome. I would like to go back very often is possible. It is a bit much after 5 or 6 days in a row, but once a year I could handle it. Especially once I have kids it will be a common visit.

Anyhow, I can’t say enough good things about the trip. I would like to list my favorite things, but I have to start working in 3 days so I don’t know if I will have time, but I will try. If I don’t, you should just go and see for your self.

Besides that, I will say that I am very nervous about this massage. I don’t get nervous on rides, but this is a very scary experience. Partly, because I don’t know what to expect, and partly because of the snooty environment that is created st places like this (much like the restaurant we went to.)

I will say that the communication regarding this was a little hectic. The people at the hotel couldn’t extend our ticket, and the people at the ticket place couldn’t extend our hotel stay. We came to Disney our a Dream Maker package, so originally our ticket and our room were linked. It is apparently impossible to just extend the package, so it took a while to get some straight answers. In the end we extended our room and then found out this morning that we got out ticket extended for free, so all is well that ends well.

Off for fun, hopefully the parks aren’t too crowded.

There was a lot of wind and rain here at Disney’s Pop Century Resort (C). However, there was nothing particularly cool.

While I was walking around, I found a few trees that were slightly uprooted, but nothing that can’t be fixed very easily.

All in all, I was a little disappointed in my hurricane experience, but I suppose it is better that it missed.

We have met some people that have fled their homes in Tampa or other places on the west coast to come here. That is somewhat reassuring that this is considered safe.

Time for bed.

We went to MGM yesterday. Many fun rides and things to see and do. The fast pass system Disney has is beautiful. You get a pass at some point during the day, and it gives you a one-hour window to return. When you return there little to no wait. Similar to Great America’s system, but everyone can do it, not just people with money to burn.

We are going on a carriage ride now. Should be fun, we get champagne!
