Hey ALL!  
I haven't written in a while, but I thought you all might like to hear about 
my
April 26-May 1 trip.  Due to flights, we only got four days.  They went
something like this:
Sat. AM + Afternoon:  MGM.  Did the usual...Superstar tv (I was picked to be 
on
Letterman), Great M Ride, Star Tour, and Muppets, then did TZTOT.  Without a
doubt the scariest, greatest ride I've ever been on.  The week we were there 
it
was programmed to drop 5 stories, bungee you up, drop 11 stories, bungee you
up, take your picture, then drop you the full 13.  We waited 90 min,but it 
as
well worth it.
Sat. PM:  Went to MK.  First did alien encounter.  I was pretty disappointed
with this one; kinda seemed pointless.  I'd only go on if there was no wait.
Then did some usuals, and ended the day with Splash Mtn.  Well worth the 45
minute wait, and especially exciting at night.  Definitely my fav MK ride; I
honestly liked it better than Soace Mtn!
Sun All Day:  Epcot.  Saw Honey, I shrunk the audience.  It was pretty good,
but personally, I liked Capt. Eo better.  (that was always one of my favs)  
THe
rodent really freaked me out.  I knew it was coming, but still, it gave me a
spook!  Did the Land Greenhouse tour, been talking about doing this one for a
while.  It was actually pretty boring. Illuminations, as always,. was
fantastic!
Mon AM and Afternoon:  MK.  Waited only 20 min to get on big thunder at 11 
M,
probably the most appropriate wait of our Vacation.  Did Splash again...love
that ride!  Then did the usuals, and SPace for my first time.  It was a great
ride, but not nearly as scary as I expected.  It also was much lighter than I
expected..I could somewhat see the track.  Still, it's a great ride worth a
long wait.
Mon PM:  We spent 5:15-7:00 at Typhoon Lagoon.  In this short time, I took 2
trips around Castaway Sreek, spent 15 min in the wave pool, did Mayday,
Gangplank and Keelhaul Falls, one storm slide, and the Humanga Kowabunga.  I
would strongly recommend going at night..there were basically no waits!  
Tue:  Due to rain, we didn't get to go to Blizzard BEach.  Instead, we 
explored
the disney hotels, something we'd been planning on for a while.  We then went
back to MGM and rode the TZTOT, my fav ride, another 3 times.  Next we went 
o
PLanet Hollywood, a must see.  We ended our vacation with another viewing of
Illuminations.
Write back soon!
