I
have had the most wonderful weekend! Madelyn was here! She and her
friend Chrissy got here Saturday. They went to a 50's sock hop dinner
and dance with Bill and me at the clubhouse here. She has found out
what really happens in a seniors RV park. We really rock!!!! On
Sunday we went to Disney. the day there began with a character
breakfast at the Grand Floridian. While there we met, Tigger, Winnie
the Pooh, Alice and The Mad Hatter. The Mad Hatter was quite
outrageous and loud, so right before we left, Madelyn tapped him on the
back and yelled in his face and then ran, he chased her around and out
of the restaurant. Then on to Hollywood Studios! Madelyn is her
Mothers daughter tho, not 5 minutes into the park, she was fooling
around to the MI music and tripped on chrissy's foot and fell and
bounced her head off of the concrete! Yikes, what a bump she got.
After a few moments we were off. She and Chrissy rode the aerosmith
Rockin roller coaster, then we did the Tower of Terror! Madelyn was
thrilled. she was last in Disney when she was 11 and the Tot T was
closed, scheduled to re open the week after she left, so she got it
today. We also did The Great Movie Ride. Then it was over to Epcot,
we went to Soarin' and waited in line for 2 hours to ride it, Bill and
I never do that but to see the looks on the girls faces made it so
worth it. We then went to Big River for supper and some Steelers time.
chrissy had to leave on Sunday nite. On Monday, Bill and I shufled
early shift and Madelyn got a chacne to see her mom onaction, hehe.
then it was off to the Magic Kingdom. We rode Thunder Mountain and
Splash Mountain, got drenched on that one. Then we went to Tomorowland
and did alot of rides there. We went to The Haunted Mansion, and went
back to the Carousel of Progress, The transportion ride there, Buss
Lightyear, twice, Its a small world twice, met some characters and took
some pictures. We ate supper at Liberty Tree Hill tavern. It was a
delicious family style meal. while there the Spectro magic light
parade passed by. We then saw the fireworks at cinderella's castle.
Today started with coffee and doughtnuts, and then to Epcot. We did
Soarin, Test Track, The Malestrom, saw the China 360 movie, and The
French movie. Walked the whole round of the countries. she again is her mothers daughter. In England we found Eeyore, Tigger and Pooh and after pictures with the 3 of them she asked for one with just Eeyore and of course Tigger and Pooh were hurt and walked away, but she made up with them quickly. We ate in
Mexico, and out last visit beofre leaving for the aiport was spaceship
earth.
It was an absolutely amazing time. After 26 years of her life, I
was finally able to spend time in disney World with my daughter, and I
owe that opportunity to Bill.
It was sad at the airport tho, saying Good BYe to her and sending her off to Virginia.
