January 08 was my 6th trip to WDW. I have recently been going in past Januaries and have enjoyed good weather and low crowds between people going back to work and school after new years and before the marathon crowd arrives.
Today was my last day for my annual trip at WDW, and it was spent at Epcot. My party and I decided not to stay at Epcot tonight due to us seeing the night entertainment and IllumiNations plenty of times, let alone it was raining and possibly thunderstorming around 5:30 onward.
I will be posting my trip report for Epcot with reviews and photos sometime tomorrow.
Tonight I will give you my info on my evacutation, 180top, and the descent of Spaceship Earth.
Now I only got to ride SSE once....and the one freaking time I ride it....I get evacuation, but oh no...its in 180top and the descent!!! Martin be drooling over this. :lol: Talk about the year of a million dreams....I GOT MY DREAM!
YES I have a few flash photos I will show here, but I have video of 180top and the descent that I will send to Martin so he can enhance it and can then show it on wdwmagic and mousebits.
Now let me explain what happened.
Odd things were happening with SSE to begin with. There were alot of EVC's and wheelchairs all around the load and unload *I would later see the unload when I went inside project tomorrow to see what was going on*
As we left the unload...we went through creep-mode, and then creep-mode in the 20th century city area.
There are many vehicles, particularly in pares, that are roped off and not useable. Their screens are somewhat on....no picture shows, but a dim light source is produced. Go figure....we were right behind one of these vehicles, and even though our vehicle's screen turned off when it was supposed to...the nonworking vehicle infront of us had their dimly lit screen on the entire time. Let alone Dame Judi was blaring in my ear on how we have created the future one step at a time. The audio was ungodly loud!!!
Anyway when we got intom 180top we went in creep mode the entire time. Well then we stopped. My vehicle stopped right before the floating news screen was from 1994-2007. We were on a flat surface, at the top, only feet away from getting ready to go down the track.
Well Dame Judi keeps yapping, and then our screen turns on in 180top as do the people around me....I answer the questionare thinking they must just be loading unloading handicap guests...but oh no....we waited....I never got to see my future. No one's video loaded...we just kept recieving information about how communication was first written on cave walls and how little girls in windows sometimes get forgotten.
Then after a few audio speils about not getting out...a castmember comes on and says they are going to evacuate us. And we were evacuated from 180top down into the descent and out a side door.
