Time in Florida.. pt 2

Remember how on Friday we had rented a car to go to Cocoa Beach, well we still needed to return it. So we got up Saturday morning, had breakfast and then took our van back. Crazy thing is, we never seem to leave ourselves much time. We got back to the Omni at 10am and we were suppose to be in the lobby to get on the bus at 10am(sound familiar). I only had flipflops on and new that I did not want to wear those all day, so as Wes was paying our taxi driver, I ran upstairs and go my tennis shoes. Race back down stairs and then we stand in line for a little while. CRAZINESS. As we are walking out the door, we are handed an envelope with our ticket to MGM and also 20 bucks in Disney bucks to eat or whatever I guess. Wes and I each got 20bucks. SWEETNESS!!!!

Off we went to MGM. It was very exciting. BEAUTIFUL DAY out, sun shining. Our first stop was to stop and put sunscreen on these White, winter ghost Michigan bodies. Then we were off, looking at things and checking stuff out. Kinda went about it the wrong way, as Wes missed riding one of the rides, cuz we didn't have enough time. But we got to do a lot. Wes rode the Tower of Terro and the Star Wars rides. (Again, I was not able) The cool think though, even though I was not able to ride the rides, I was able to stand in line with him the whole way and chill with him and then right before he got on a ride, I would go a different way. Made for a fun day and being able to stay together helped it to not be a boring day. ;0)

Went to a stunt show. I think it was like 30 mins of showing us how they do car racing stunts and other stuff. Very cool. Lots of walking and we did get some stuff to eat. did a little shopping and then it was back to the hotel to rest!!!

This guy walked me to my seat at the Star Wars ride. Kinda freaked me out, did not talk or shake his head or anything, just stood there like this facing you or walking. I decided I don't like masks on people. Can't see their eyes. Wes rode this ride, the inside was so cool, looks just like an old dusty hotel. Very cool!! I guess it was a good ride. Lots of screaming you can hear in other areas of the park. you walk underneath this guy to get into the ride for Star Wars. you can see that he is spraying water. Got some people by surprise.

At first I thought you said "we" rode the rides and I thought "she can't ride rides when she's pregnant, can she?" Then I realized it said "Wes" rode the rides. Whew, you made me nervous there for a minute!. Sounds like a fun day!!
