Re: Screever's '4 parks one world christmas extravaganza'
Okay, here I goooooooo!
Friday was a no-fuss travel day. Everything went smoothly and we got to sit in first class.  Pretty sweet.I made dad drive straight to Access Control so I could get my CM badge renewed before they closed, then we snagged dinner at the Red Lobster almost across from DTD (we had a coupon!) then found the Hilton at SeaWorld, then got some groceries, then had dinner! Whew. The Hilton timeshare resort at SeaWorld is so charming and user-friendly. (Barring the pay-per-minute internet use, hmph.) My mom and I would love to stay there again next time we visit Orlando. I sadly don't have any pictures of the place, but we got a two-bedroom, and there was a couch, extra sink, and mini fridge in my half. It was like my own apartment! I think my parents were more tickled about that than I was--go fig! We get a good night's sleep before Epcot on Saturday...dun dun dun!

Oh, I know what it is! My parents got married young but waited almost 15 years to have kids. Thus they could be grandparents by now. Go figure!

Re: Screever's '4 parks one world christmas extravaganza'
Alright wow you people are eager.
I like that!(I'm also gonna try a new photo method; I feel like my last TR photo links were too slow and frustrating for people.) EPCOT Spaceship Earth is of course, first item of the day, everytime I go to Epcot with my family, and with friends who don't care what happens first. This was a walk-on. My parents really enjoyed the new bit with the LCD screen and that glimpse into the future. I didn't care much for my own; they sat in front of me so I glanced at theirs, and they apparently grow their own vegetables of the future and eat really healthy. Which does suit their lifestyles; pops is the jock and mom is the diet-hippie. I ran like the dickens to get fast passes for all of us at Soarin while my folks checked out the Epcot's 25 anniversary timeline. The 25th anniversary room is closed!  I was heartbroken, and really thought my parents would enjoy that, but these things happen...We checked out the wait time for Test Track; ten minutes for single riders, so my dad and I hopped on while mom found a seat. (She did it once, but never again!) I'm in the top left corner with the hood and sunglasses; I ride in style!  Poppa bear and me.  Mom and Pops hadn't done the Universe of Energy in like...15 years. So they've never seen the Ellen version. They really enjoyed stepping 'back in time' to enjoy an oldie but a goodie!  They park more than strollers here...I love birdies.  On to Soarin! Also a walk-on. About halfway through the tears came. Yes, I cried, and I'm not ashamed. I don't know when I'll get to ride it next, so it was a lil emotional for the screever.  My mom really likes that ride too. She was hoping we could ride it again later in the day, but alas, it didn't work out.It was close to noon by this time so we stuck around in The Land and ate at the glorious Season's food court...finger lickin good! That's it for now, sadly; bro is over to the house, the tv in this room is blaring the Ravens/Redskins game, and I got a headache.
