The Honeymooners - Part 2

So where did we leave off? Oh yes, at the end of a lovely day at the Animal Kingdom. On to Day 3!

We spent Day 3 at the Hollywood Studios park.


I think we rode the Tower of Terror about 3 or 4 times... 
 As close as we could get to Vader!

Yep, that's my husband!
One of the coolest things we did was to watch the Indiana Jones Stunt Show (Tory, you would have LOVED it!!). They picked "extras" for the show out of the audience. As soon as they said that, Ty and I looked at each other, and I told him "give me the camera..." and he was picked next. (It did help that he jumped up and down waving his arms shouting "Me! Me! Me!" lol)
So, after being chosen to be an "extra," Ty went off-stage with the other extras to get into costume.  While that was going on, the show began....
Name that movie!
I must say, the guy playing Indy was pretty cute! (sorry baby! lol) Ty said he had red hair... lol.. not very Indy-like!
 Indy explaining just how "heavy" the props are... The giant ball takes "20 men!" to roll back up the hill. *coughmorelike2cough*

I don't have the video of Ty's death scene (yes, he had a scene!) with me, so I will post that later. If you see him, ask him about his shoes getting stolen...
Moving on!
These guys were awesome... I can't imagine being outside in 85+ heat (plus at least 60 percent humidity!)
Just for Ty's little sister :) 

We had dinner at a "drive-in"--the best part? The commercials for really bad old horror movies!! (Yes, Chrissie and Tory, they even had a trailer for the Devil Girl From Mars!!)




 
  
Hubba-hubba! You've gotta love the 3-D glasses!
 
How to find your husband in a crowd after dark: Let him borrow your light-up tiara.


We ended the night watching "Fantasmic," which was AWESOME! I got wet, therefore, freezing cold, but it was very very awesome. If you haven't seen it, think "Fantasia" with real fire, and all on the water. It was a great day!!
Day 4: Back to the Magic Kingdom! The best part of that day was eating dinner at Cinderella's Castle. We even had our "portrait done" with Cinderella herself! The food was amazing--the BEST steak I've ever eaten in my life, and I could probably survive without ever eating red meat, so that's saying a lot for me!




Day 5 was back to the Animal Kingdom, and then Day 6 was......

Epcot!!

Some of the characters we met throughout the week:
Yes, I did tell the Red Ranger that I had a crush on him when I was 10...
Lots of fun people, and an amazing week! We had so much fun, and can't wait to go back! (In about 7 years... lol) I know there are more pictures somewhere (where did that bellydancer at the Marrakesh restaurant go?), so if I find them, I'll add more later.


The Honeymooners - Part 1

So, nearly a month later, here's the honeymoon report.

 
On the way to our wedding!


What a handsome husband I have!

We flew out to Orlando the day after our wedding; didn't arrive in Florida until after midnight, and it was almost 2 a.m. by the time we got to our hotel. I was sick when we got off the plane, and couldn't wait to go to bed--which turned out to be 2 full beds, not 1 queen size bed like we'd booked. But, a bed was a bed at that point, and we were exhausted.


 Outside our hotel, the Movies Resort. Yes, I am a geek...

First day in the Magic Kingdom... I was a little excited

Ty felt it was important to document our food... I think he just liked playing with our new camera... lol
At first, we didn't think they'd let me ride...
...but, since it was our honeymoon and all, they decided to let me go ahead and drive

Ty said it wouldn't be a trip to a Disney park without having to ride on (in my opinion) the worst ride ever thought of... It's a Small World...

(He's only smiling because he knows how much I don't want to go on this ride and is making me do it anyway)
The colonial village

Should I really be smiling?
 This is the Lucifer bird... A very evil bird that followed us everywhere the rest of the week (Oh, I know what you're thinking--it couldn't be the SAME bird... maybe it wasn't, but ever since Ty told me to feed the birds, and instead of the cute ones, I accidentally fed this scary guy, the creepy bird followed us everywhere!)

I think we only rode on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride about 4 times...

Day two was at the Animal Kingdom--my favorite park out of the trip. We went back for a second day later in the week because we had so much fun there. 

Outside the park at the crack of dawn *yawn*

My photogenic husband :) 

The. Coolest. Tree. Ever.

The amazing 3-D glasses for the "It's Hard Being a Bug" show (which was awesome, and we went twice)
 Yes, I'm supposed to be looking like a nerd with a kissy-face...


We saw some amazing animals very close up...


And this crazy tree-lady! She blended in with the trees so much we didn't see her at first




In front of my favorite ride the entire week: Expedition Everest


I want this in our apartment

Don't think we're weird because we both love bats

The coolest picture... What I wouldn't give for a backyard like this...


The happy newly-weds :) (A side note: I was VERY glad I thought to wear a swimming suit that day!)
Um, it's best not to ask... Let's just say my monkeyboy felt right at home.


(Are you beginning to see a pattern?)
These were THE coolest monkeys!



This is where we had dinner on day 2




More pictures to come ;)
