Orlando, FL Days 1 & 2

Judd & I were able to take a "Big people only" trip in May to Orlando.  It was too warm for me (mid 90's) & WAY too humid.  The best way to describe it is to shower & NOT dry off, just toss on your clothes & you're set for the day.  Ick!!  Before I get too much whinning in I will say it was a FABULOUS trip!  That's what I will focus on from here on out.  Judd had to be there for a few work meetings (oops, he missed a few) & so did many other EFS's so Tom & Deb (EFS & friends from AK) were there to hang out with too.

We stayed 2 nights in the Orlando JW Marriott before moving to Disney World.

So we spent Day One at Universal Studios. 

 Captain America & Judd

 We saw the Blue Man Group that night, very entertaining.

 There is water everywhere down there, even in the middle of the parks.

 Dinner was at the NBA Restaurant

 Me, Betty Boop & Deb

Day 2 started at Hollywood Studios, which is where we discovered our #1 favorite ride, Aerosmith's  Rock 'n Roller Coaster.

This is a bad picture of the inside of the ride.  You ride a "limo" down I-5 to the Aerosmith concert. 0 to 60 in 2.6 seconds, oh yeah!! 

We then went to Magic Kingdom where we saw an electric parade that night & rode Space Mountain.  Just for the record DL's Space Mtn. is so much better than DW's.  BUT their Tower of Terror & Thunder Mountain RR are better than DL's...Ya win some, ya loose some!

This is what an 800 passenger ferry looks like when there are only 2 confused & lost people riding it back to Magic Kingdom to catch the shuttle bus, which they thought was somewhere else.  When really the way back to the resort was where they were.  Can you say tourist?!  Oh & it was 11:45 pm when we caught the 20 minute ferry back.  It was a late night.
