| And we continue on.... a month later  After our photos and our afternoon at Epcot we headed back to the WL. We rested a bit, swam a bit, freshened up, and then headed down to the lobby to check in for our ADR at WCC. This was a first for us and we weren't quite sure what to expect. Our ADR was right at opening time, so we checked in and had about a 15 min. wait. While we waited I played around and took some photos of the lodge.   Andy chillin' and doing his "test all the chairs in the lobby" bit...   Andy got his hands on my camera...  Then it was time to head in for our dinner. I started with some sunset, sunrise something froo frooy and boy was it tasty! I had two  Our waitress threw us a bunch of straws, so Andy decided waste not want not...   I however opted to go with only two..... sunrise/sunset froo frooy thing through one straw was potent enought....two made it evvvveeeen more so...  Our food was fabulous. We went with the family style deal and ate up some ribs.  Everything was really tasty! While we were eating one of the waiters walked by and dumped this jar on our table.... We were nosey of course and peeked in. It was a bunch of paper certificates.... Then he came back over, introduced me as having a birthday (told everybody I was 21....not sure if he was joking or just mis informed?? But hey, I look it....) And then after the kids did their little pony lap around the restaurant they had to come to me to get their certificate. Now I'm sure the point of making a poor unsuspecting sap hand out the certificates is to embarass them in some manner. But when you give it to a teacher (who is working on her second sunrise, sunset froo frooy thing) you get somebody totally in their element Andy of course videoed it, and there's me, just a talking to those kids and there's those kids...just kinda staring at me and not understanding why the stranger lady really wants to talk to them.... But anyhoo, it was fun By the time dessert came I had no room but I forced myself to eat this....  Yes, forced......  yea right... It was WONDERFUL!!!After dinner we walked around and found some hidden mickeys...     Then it was time to head out to MGM for some late night crowds...errr.. I mean fun.....

| Continuing on.... We caught the bus to MGM. We arrived about an hour before EMH hours started, so we headed on in to the TOT. The line.....the line.....it was the longest line we have ever waited in for the TOT. I have to say, I'm not one to complain when I'm in my happy place, but seriously folks...what are the Disney people thinking when they think that it's a bright idea to spray buckets of steam on you whilst you stand in 90+ degree heat waiting in line? Seriously.... I'm surprised we didn't all start sticking to each other. It was ridiculous at times. You couldn't even see a foot in front of you.....   I have a close up of Andy's face all covered in sticky steam and sweat but I don't think he'd be too pleased if I posted it..... But by the time we got inside we were drenched with the stupid steam. Anyway, enough complaining about the steam. We had made it inside and were on our way to the fifth dimension. This trip was kinda stinky though b/c with exception to that first day we were at MGM the lines were crazy here. We only got to ride the tower once that night... We didn't get to ride it near as much this trip as we have in the past...  After that we walked towards RnRC and got our EMH bracelets. When we got to RnRC the line for that was ridiculous and I don't think there were any FP times left.... So once again, we skipped out on RnRC.    By this point I was getting a little moody b/c it was ridiculously crowded as compared to our past EMH experiences. So we headed to the back of the park and took in some Star Tours and Muppets.   We mosied our way around and just kind of walked and enjoyed the park. Once you made your way to left side of the park there was nobody around... they were all over in line for RnRC and TOT apparently. It had started to get a little late and we had an early breakfast in the morning so we headed back to the WL to get some rest and get away from the crowds. Coming up: A birthday breakfast with my Disney pals!
