The Barber Shop closes at 5 o'clock, but it was only about 4:30 when my haircut was done. What happened next was a complete surprise to me. I stepped out into Town Square, and the rain came pouring down in buckets. I stepped back inside the Barber Shop, and I put on my raincoat.
Now I have visited WDW many many times before, and experienced these sudden downpours of rain. However, this one was different. This one was not stopping. I could finally read the writing on the wall, and I made my way to the exit as did most of the Magic Kingdom's guests around me.
By the time I got to the Pop Century Bus, my feet were soaking wet, and super sore. Thankfully, my backpack was under the raincoat, so that did not get wet. I took the raincoat off on the bus, because wearing it there, just made me colder, due to the air-conditioning on the bus.
My nightly habit was to always stop at the foodcourt, before returning to my room. I can then get food, and some hot tea, and prepare myself for the walk to my room. I had plans to stay at Magic Kingdom until the night's fireworks. MSEP was not running on that particular night. Oh well, perhaps I would catch it on another night during my trip. Making it an early night allowed me to rest my foot, and get ready for my next day in the parks.
