The picture above represents what happens when you try to take a picture while driving. Obviously it doesn't turn out very well. This one however ended up great and I was also taking it while driving.
Finally having a phone with a good camera is turning out to be a dangerous thing for me.
The T-Rex restaurant was great. It is way better than rainforest cafe. There is way more food on the menu and while it is pricey it is definitely worth it. I should have taken pictures in there but I was so focused on catching up with a friend I haven't seen in months that I completely forgot. They have an ice cave that's pretty cool. It's just white and cold but it turns red during the astroid shower. Every 15 minutes or so there's an astroid shower. The dinosaurs go all crazy and then it gets quiet. Well the dinosaurs get quiet. There's way too many people for it to ever be quiet in there. I got an order of bruschetta and lasagna. The lasagna was huge. I could only eat like half of it.
Next we did some shopping. I bought myself a mug with all the villains and then some lantern thing for my grandparents. I was looking for nightmare of christmas stuff for my friends birthday but they didn't have anything good. I was also looking for those giant snow globes but I couldn't find any of those either. I love the World of Disney store. It's so easy to get lost. We headed over to the West Side too but there wasn't as much over there. My friend ended up buying a Star Wars shirt.
Then we got on the bus to the Contemporary so we could catch the monorail and ride it around. For a little bit we had an entire car to ourself but then a bunch of people got on. I absolutely love monorails. The one that goes around the magic kingdom resorts is nice but the Epcot one is better because you're pretty much in Epcot. We went around on that one twice.
That's how far you are in the park. That was taken from the monorail while we were inside the park. You go above all of Futureland and you're right up on the edge of World Showcase. It's free which makes it even more awesome. You can ride the monorail for free. I do it every time I'm in Orlando.
Once we finally made it back to Downtown Disney (we had to take a bus from Epcot to Port Orleans and then a bus to Downtown Disney) we had some ice cream at Ghiradelli. Downtown Disney was so crowded because of the kids trick or treating. It is beyond me why they would wait in such a long line just to get a peanut butter cup. Once of the lines was from World of Disney to Team Mickey. I know most of you don't know how long that it is but believe me it's way too long to wait for a piece of candy. After Ghiradelli we walked around a little more and then left.
Rather than getting right on the highway like I should have I tried to venture off and go see the apartment complexes. Dumb move. It's not like I got lost, I know Orlando pretty well and I knew exactly where Vista Way is, I just got stuck in a sea of cars that weren't moving. I got to Vista Way really easy. The buildings aren't as bad as I thought. They look older but not bad. It took me 45 minutes to get from Vista Way back to I-4. Vista Way is about one or two lights away from the highway so imagine how bad traffic was. We were lucky if one car in each lane got to go through the light because of how backed up it was. I gave up on trying to see Chatham and Patterson just because I didn't even want to try to get on the the other side of the road. I eventually did get on I-4 though and it took less than an hour and a half to get home.
I had a lot of fun yesterday but now it's halloween night and I have nothing to do.
