Park of choice today...MGM






Okay, you know our week isn't complete without a trip to some park so today we choose MGM. We had originally started off going to Epcot today and then Matthew guilted us into skipping it because Makenzie (his cousin) had told him she's never been so he wanted to wait and go when she was with us. Of course she has been, and I knew she had been...but no way was I going to convience him otherwise. So the only way to talk Hunter out of Epcot was to promise to eat at the Sci-Fi Theatre for lunch. The food there is great, and you sit in pretend cars and it's designed to be like a drive-in movie theathre. My only problem is that the wait to get a table is forever long and it's really dark....but again, the food is so worth it. So we went at 11:20 to see if we could luck into a table and of course we had to make reservations....our reservation wasn't until 1:55 and this was on a day where the longest line was a 10 minute wait! So we just grabbed a snack and went on our way to ride. We got to ride a lot today because the lines were so short, didn't even have to get a single fast pass...that's unheard of. We rode the Star Wars ride a couple of times, the Rock 'n Roller coaster, the back lot tour, the great movie ride and caught up with a lot of new characters we haven't met yet along the way. We got to meet all the Power Rangers, except for the pink one because "that's a girl one"....they didn't realize the yellow one was a girl too. ha! We also got to meet the characters from Monster's, Inc. After all that it was finally time for lunch. We ate, watched the parade and then headed off to my sister's house to hang out with some friends and have some of Ricks BBQ....it was really good. We had a wonderful day and the weather was incredible...wish it could be this way every weekend, don't really care about the week days so much since I'm at work anyway, guess that's a little selfish huh? ha! Until my next post...
