Magically.... Get Out.

Wow. Just got back from Disney World! My mom, my aunt and I took my grandma to Disney for her first visit.  It was superb! We had a hilarious time.  You'll be able to see from the pictures.

 We went to the Magic Kingdom and Epcot. 














It was really cool because everything was decorated for Halloween.  




































 We rode LOTS of rides with little to no line thanks to Grandma Katie!!


Jungle Cruise














Pirates of the Caribbean (This part of the ride is a little morbid because those jailbirds are trying to convince the dog to bring them the key while their building burns to the ground. Hmm.)













It's a Small World After All
 (I put this picture because it's also morbid.  That kid is trying to rip that chicken's head off!! WTF Walt?)











Here we are on the boat on the Most Annoying Ride Ever (Small World).  Mom says it used to be my favorite when I was younger.  I must have been a twisted little kid.  












Peter Pan has to be the shortest ride at the park but usually has incredibly long lines.  Oh those poor disappointed people.

 









The Buzz Lightyear ride is basically a glorified riding arcade game.  SO AWESOME! You use those little guns on the ride and shoot aliens for points.  Saaaaa-weet. 











The Race Cars are only fun when you're a terrible driver and you're banging your car on the metal track line below you. Left CRASH Right CRASH Left CRASH and on and on. 














This picture here is NOT a picture of Splash Mountain.  But it's supposed to represent the fact that we did ride it because if you click on the picture you can see our wet butts.











At Epcot we rode Ellen's Universe of Energy (yes, THAT Ellen). It was a ride/show. 














We also saw some entertaining shows (without a ride included)... 
We went to the Hall of Presidents which was pretty cool.  Those robots are scarily lifelike.

















We went to the Country Bear Jamboree show.  This guy's name is Liver Lips.  I wonder why?

















Now it's time for some MAGICAL MOMENTS and some Photo Ops. :)

Magical Moment Number 1:

Can you tell what this is??
















Of course not.  When you don't know it's coming, it's hard to take a picture.  Well the Magic Kingdom has this fireworks show every night called "Wishes".  It's a great fireworks show but the thing that makes it really cool is this.  It was SO MAGICAL!!! She just appears out of nowhere!!





The second magical moment of Disney was at Epcot.  They had this "interactive show" in the Finding Nemo ride building.  We weren't really interested but the map said it was a Must See.  So we gave it a try.  It was called Turtle Talk with Crush (Crush is the turtle who talks like a surfer).















There's the screen for the show with Crush.  He's a CARTOON but he talks to people in the room, asks them questions, answers questions, like he's REAL! It was insane! This might give you a better idea.




We could not figure out how that worked!  So cool!!

So now it's time for some PHOTO OPS!! I gotta tell ya, there are so many opportunities for Pictures at every nook and cranny of the park that you get a little tired of taking and being in pictures.  So we got creative as you'll see below.

































































































































Okay that was exhausting.  There are more pictures and stories I need to tell but that will have to wait until tomorrow!! OH THE SUSPENSE!!! :)
