Orlando Vacation-Day Five















Day five: Disney's Hollywood Studios (formerly MGM). This place is very cool, it's got the feel of vintage Hollywood. We went to "New York" and "San Francisco". We saw Darth Vader, and a bunch of Star Wars stuff. We played in the Honey I Shrunk the Kids playground area-Wesley had a lot of fun there, especially going down the slides. Before lunch we went on the Backlot tour and saw the planes from Pearl Harbor, the cages from Pirates, the bikes from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, the plane Walt Disney flew on to find the perfect location for Disney World. After lunch we went to see the Lights, Motor Action show which was really cool, you got to see how they do all kinds of car and motorcycle stunts. Christopher went on the Tower of Terror then we caught the Block Party Bash parade where we say Woody, the guys from Monster's Inc, and Toy Story, and the Incredibles. Then we went to get in line to see....Lightning McQueen and Mater (Ka-chow!). If you know how much Wesley LOVES the movie Cars, then you will understand why we waited over 40 minutes in line to meet them. Of course, when we got to the front of the line Wesley said "No Mommy! Don't want to go!". Ha ha ha-yeah right kid, we're going and you are going to like it.  I think (I know) I was more excited than he was (especially since he was not feeling well that day). But we got some pictures of us with them, and now if you talk to him about it he will tell you how we say McQueen and Mater and how we got to touch McQueen. :) We ended up leaving the park around 5, to go back to the room and relax, especially since we wanted Wesley to feel better when we went to the park the next day.
