Well here we go off to Buffalo/Niagara International airport for our 1230pm flight to Disney World. We had to transfer and wait in Cincinnati for 2 hours which was long. We finally made it to Orlando airport at 630pm.
After we got downstairs to check in at Disney's Magical Express we finally got to Carribbean Beach Resort at 830pm and checked it. We were in the Aruba building which was very nice. :yes: Just a walk over Parrot Cay to the main building. After we made it to our room and unpacking we decided to have dinner at Shutters at Old Port Royale which was good.
We made our way to the main pool and had a swim and retired for the night.
May 15, 2005 - Day 2
MGM Studios here we come. We made our way to the 1:15 showing of Lights Motor Actions which was cool since i am a NASCAR nut. Then we made our way to Star Tours and the Star Wars Weekend characters.
On our way down Hollywood Blvd. we stopped an watched the Beauty and the Beast Show, road Tower of Terror and Rockin Roller coaster. Made our way back to play Millionare and see the big cheese. Then it was off to the Brown Derby to meet fellow trivateers - Pat, Lisa, Andy, Mike, Kyle, Bonny, Andrew, MJ and James. Dinner was very good especially the Cobb Salad which was very filling. Then off to Fantasmic where Bonny got us up close seats.
