nice day out

Late start today. Getting lazy trying to get out of bed. No photos of breakfast.

Breakfast in the lounge and heading to Epcot. While eating in the lounge, I made a name for myself. One of the workers ask where are all my cameras ;)

I entered Epcot, did a DAS return time for Frozen. My favorite niece (my only niece) teases me, says I have enough time to ride Guardians of the Galaxy, haha J. I also did a mobile order at the new place in the American Adventure. They say it will take an hour to get for my food to be ready, so I go ride Spaceship Earth. Yep, they removed parts of my hat…. Again.

Here is my video of Your Future from Spaceship Earth.

I have to state this. I have been to Walt Disney World with a camcorder in hand. I don’t know how many camcorders made the trip with me, but I had many. There was one thing all my previous camcorders failed to do, that my Sony 700 did. In Spaceship Earth, in the beginning of the ride, there is a feint projection of cavemen fighting a Mastodon. No camcorder till now was able to record this. Not going to say how much this cost me… but was worth every dollar J

Heading to American Adventure, I pass the soon to be gone barges in the World Showcase lagoon. First and last time I will see these things. Lots of people don’t like it.

Eating at American Adventure, they have a Sam Eagle souvenir cup, got it. Got ribs of course J

I used mobile order. When I entered the restaurant, lot of people to help me get my food.

After lunch, went on frozen. Ride should be 101 soon, Disney speak ride should be down for maintenance. The snowman and the moose weren't moving, the queen wasn't singing, and we were stopped for several long minutes about to top the hill, so we were still slanted. On the good side I didn't get yelled at for any camera lights J

I go by the old Odyssey restaurant building. They have things for the orange bird. I get another collectable orange bird. I have one from previous visits.

Then I went on Grand Fiesta Tour.

Then the new ride, ratattooie,

then headed to ride Soarin. Now I don’t know why I did this. I parked my scooter outside the queue, and walked he queue. For those that don’t know, the queue for Soarin has the longest queue …. And remember, I rent a scooter to avoid long walks. ;(

I cross the park to ride Mission Space,

now going to eat at Le Cellier.

Steak of course. Not seen Chedder Cheese soup

After dinner, I met Virginia and Alan. When I was getting ready for my trip, I forgot to pack a plastic housing for my Hero 8 (scooter cam camera). So I ordered it shipped to Virginia. She received it and brought it to me. Rode nemo clam ride,

heading back to resort, calling it a night

Back at the resort, made some purchases. 2 50th anniversary Lionel Train cars, and the hat that caught my attention a couple of days ago. Love that DVC discount.

Anyone who laughs…… unfriended J

From my room near 9 pm, I go FB live again and watch the fireworks show, no one really watched it.

I line up my souvenirs, so far.

I go to the lounge and have some ice cream
