We are: Marilyn, and DH Thomas. Sr. citizens with very young hearts.
I can't believe we only have two days left. This was the morning - the BIG one! Clothes pressed? Brillo head covered by cute hat? (Soulder surgery - can't do the curling iron).
We had an ADR for the Crystal Palace at 8:00 and that in itself was exciting because I've never been in any park before opening. It DID feel magical. At the CP, I spotted some of the blue JQU shirts, and I knew I was about to face Pogo, the nice man I had given an electronic gender reassignment to earlier this summer. Also, Disney Deb,Rhonda, Bethany, Beth, Sarah, Mary, Andrew and Micki, and Traci. Some didn't make the breakfast, so maybe next time. I got our shirts and ducked into the bathroom to change so I could "blend".
We went over to Epcot because DH was fascinated with the glass blower in Germany, and I could have flown hom and he wouldn't have known. Instead, I told him I wanted to go over to the American pavilion to meet the Lennon Sisters. (How many of you are going "who")? Anyway, we share some of the same history, and I just wanted to see if they looked as old as I do. They didn't, so I didn't buy one of their dolls, but did get my picture with Janet and Kathy.
Back up for a minute. On the way over to America, I passed Italy, and realized that Captain Jessica Sparrow had written that she would be with the storyteller on Sat. Here comes the CM ringing the bell, and when the storyteller got started, I went up, trying to be discreet looking at her name tag before saying, "hi, Jessica, I'm really happy to meet you". She's just as sweet as she can be, and really likes her job.
I can't remember exactly the sequence, but we ran into the "group" after that and stood around talking for a bit. We had met up with Bethany and Piglet on the way in, and she did everything short of kicking me before I noticed her. (When your eyes are two feet below everybody else's, that can happen). Anyway, I promised not to tell where Piglet is.:piglet:
We had done the CP on Tuesday, and had been third and fourth in line behind a CM that brought her mother in a WC. She works at the Liberty Tree Tavern, and hasn't missed a days work in 20 years. Well, it's Saturday, and I wanted to pop in for a hot dog, and we spot the CM stocking the condiment stations, and I went over to her to say "hi, remember me"? She was really happy to be greeted by name. I can see why she likes her job - she likes people.
We left Epcot before the monorail filled because my battery was in the very low zone. I opted for the bus at TTC, even tho' it was crowded, because DH isn't young enough to push me and the scooter up the hill to SOG.
Tomorrow is our last full day, and I have a bet with DH. I'm going to stomp his A**(teroids) on Buzz Lightyear for a BIG cup of popcorn. I've never beaten him yet, but this is my lucky year.:thedolls::old:
Stay tuned for one last day, and final thoughts.
