...that would be me overdosing, not T. She's in her glory.
This morning we were up bright and early, and checked out of the Castle Hotel to head toward Disney's Coronado Springs. First though, we stopped off at the Craziest McDonalds I have ever seen in my life. Orlando truly is a nutty town. So tourist oriented that its indescribable. Apparently, in an attempt to lure tourists into one establishment like McDonalds, vs. the others located just down the street, they're all going to odd lengths to entice the customers. This McDonalds that we were in, had normal McDonalds food, but also had "Bistro Food"...pasta dishes, wraps, grilled deli-type sandwiches, etc. Truly an odd assortment. Almost like a whole other restaurant inside McD's. They also had a full arcade of video games, two huge fish tanks, and an upstairs with god-knows what. We told T that the sign saying "watch your step" said "Closed". God help us when she knows how to read.
Anyway, after our bizarre breakfast, we stopped off at the outlet mall to visit the Disney outlet. We always like stopping off there first, to get junk at cut rates vs. paying the exhorbitant Disney prices. Of course, we have paid those stupid prices on some things, but at least I know that they're not 1/2 off down the street.
We checked into our hotel, ate lunch, took naps, then headed out to Epcot for the Princess Dinner. T wore her Ariel princess dress. We also brought a change of clothes for her, so she wouldn't be stuck in the stupid, hot dress in the god-awful Disney heat. The dinner came with a "free" picture of her with Belle, who was the princess on duty posing with all the kids before dinner. Then during the dinner, Jasmine, Ariel, Cinderalla, and Snow White made their way through the dining room posing with all the little girls. T also found Mulan and Mushu at the China exhibit.
After dinner we strolled around the park. MGM studios is on the list for tomorrow. Meanwhile, we're enjoying the hotel room and resting.
I'm happy to note that my foot is holding up reasonably well. I was nervous and had meant to order a scooter, but forgot. So far, so good.
Check in tomorrow for our continuing saga...
