WDW

Went to Walt Disney World last week with Ronny, and Brad and Cris. It was a really good trip!! he weather was gorgeous, we went to all the parks, and I feigned the flu to get two of the days as sick time instead of vacation time! Ronny and Cris were really fun to go to WDW with because they were just awe-struck and impressed by everything. We have around 800 pictures total among the group.
We headed out on Thursday. It was a direct flight, so we got to the hotel by about 3:30pm. Decided to spend a little time at Epcot, since we had dinner reservations there. (We signed up for the Disney Dining Plan. It was about $250 each upfront, but our food was then comped. So, rather than have cheeseburgers for dinner, we went all out. We were spending about $40 to $50 per person on dinner each night. Epcot's international showcase is the place to go for dinner. Sit-downs at the Magic Kingdom not so fabulous.) Relaxed for a bit after dinner, then headed to Downtown Disney. Mannequins dance club is gay night on Thursdays, so we checked it out. They have these two dancers up on a high stage dressed in disco-ball suits. Little mirror pieces all over them, head to toe. Well, head to ankle - the hands and feet were not 'sequined' at all. Then the spot lights shone on them. The disco ball 'spray' changed as they moved. It was just SO cool! Mannequins is also the home of the rotating dance floor. As we headed onto the floor, we worked our way into the crowd. Ended up right next to this guy who could very nearly have been my ex, Sergio's twin brother. It was a little distracting. I had to check a couple times just to make sure it wasn't actually him. (Wouldn't THAT have been a coincidence!!)
The only other experience during the trip that doesn't happen to your typical Disney tourist was the Haunted Mansion hard-on... IF you've been on the ride, you remember it's very dark, and you sit in these little egg-shell tilt-a-whirl type cars. In other words, nobody else can see you. So, Ronny and I kept kissing during the ride. I think it was the thrill of making out on a ride like that which made me get a little more excited than your average rider. Can you imagine if we'd been down during Gay Days!
