Today's park was Hollywood studios, and I think we all enjoyed it more than the animal kingdom. We started off by some of us watching the Highschool musical while I went to get fast pass tickets to Tower of Terror, which started a theme of leapfrogging throughout the day, getting fastpasses here, jumping over there to hit another ride. Martha and Gwyn did the tower of terror three times during the day - they both love that ride. We were again grabbed out of the crowd and selected as a VIP Family for the Rock n Roller coaster. We were on our way to get fastpass tickets when this young man in a disney uniform stopped us in the middle of a pack of people. Again I thought we were doing something wrong (guilty conscience I guess). He asked if we would like to go on the coaster, but as the VIP family, so of course we said YES! Basically he took us through some back ways and alleys until we were put right onto the ride, bypassing the entire line. The ride is a blast, and we got a picture of us all screaming during the takeoff- it's very fast and in the dark but even Maegan screamed for joy the entire time.
At lunch we went to this old 50's style restaurant, where they pretend that you're in your own house and that it's your aunt or uncle or grandma doing the cooking. They come and sit next to you, send you to the corner if you put your elbows on the table, and basically bicker back and forth like a true family. It was a blast, and the food was fabulous. At one point this little girl was banished to our table for putting her elbows on the table. When she told us Martha and I instantly pulled our elbows off the table with a guilty start :P
Muppets 3D was pretty cool, as was Star Tours - classics now but they are always fun to revisit. I managed to cajole everyone into going to a stunt show, and they humored me but were expecting to be bored. But by the time the last flames had died away they were converted. It was a way awesome show, with cars racing back and forth, jumping over trucks, motorcycles screaming all over the place - it was really neat.
So the final stats for today was:
Maegan: best ride:Rock 'n roller best Thing: VIP Family
Gwyn: Best Ride:Tower of terror Best Thing: Muppets 3D
Martha: Best Ride: Rock 'n roller best Thing: 50's restaraunt
Meesh: best ride: Rock 'n Roller Best Thing: stunt show
Tomorrow's Park: Magic Kingdom!

Soooo.... basically what you're saying is that the entire time you thought you were doing something wrong. Getting stopped by security, getting scolded for putting your elbows on the table... What's wrong with this picture? Are they trying to make you feel bad about yourself or do you just already feel bad about yourself? Hhmmmm?
Anyway, I gotta go to bed. Have I ever mentioned that I really hate waking up at four in the morning? That's probably why I don't wake up until five fifteen most days... Speaking of guilty consciences...
