This trip was a very last minute idea that my mom had. She didn't have any vacation time left because of her being off work almost two months because of her heart. We normally go in September but this time she couldn't go. I did go ahead and take a week off work anyway. She told me that I should go on and go but I had mixed emotions. Finally she talked me into it. Tuesday night we made the reservations for me to get there the next morning.
My flight left Louisville at 700 and I got there around 845. I went to get my suitcase and go all the way over to the other side of the airport to catch DME. I would have been the third stop but wound up being the very last stop because the road leading to the Contemporary was closed. We had to go all the way around the backside of the MK to get to the contemporary. I get checked in and go up to my room on the 10th floor. After eating lunch and taking a quick nap I head over to MK.
When I get there my first stop is to get a citrus swirl. I cannot live without them. I ate three of them and then went to SM and BTMRR. There wasn't any lines for any of the rides. After those two it was off to Tomorrowland where I rode TTA several times and Space mtn a couple of times. I then started making my way back to the front of the park to do some shopping. After shopping I went to DTD to do even more shopping. I usually can't get out of there without spending a lot of money. This time I didn't buy a thing. Now I am getting tired and go back to the room to get some sleep.
Day 2- Thursday
After breakfast I decide to go to AK. I usually don't stay long at this park just long enough to ride EE and look at the shops on the way out. I rode EE twice with very little wait. By this time I was thinking this was going to be my normal September vacation, was I wrong. After AK I decided to go to either MGM or Epcot depending on which bus got there first. While I am thinking about, this seems to me the worst year by far for the love bugs. I don't remember them being this bad. Walking in the parks and having to dodge them because they were in swarms. Well the Epcot bus came first so that is where I went. I went on M:S and TT with very little wait. Went to go ride soarin' and had to wait about 20 min., the longest wait so far. On my way out after soarin', I rode SE. Then it was back to the Contemp. for an early dinner. After dinner I had to have dessert so I went back over to the MK to get my dessert, two more citrus swirls. Then I went back to my room for the night. I decided to watch Wishes from my balcony.
I am getting very tired so I will finish this tomorrow.
