The Twilight Zone....

This post's attraction is from Hollywood Studios 

Victims trapped in the fifth dimension 

The lobby just the way it was left.

Neat picture I found online

Picture I took of the Hotel.

It's been a while, sorry, I was in another dimension, The Twilight Zone. This update is focused on the great ride in Hollywood Studios called, The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. At 199 feet tall, The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror is the highest attraction at Walt Disney World. Here is info about the ride from the Disney website:

The Legend

Classic stars of the silver screen sought rest and relaxation at the grand Hollywood Tower Hotel during the Golden Age of Hollywood. In 1939, during a gloomy Halloween night, 5 unlucky souls were riding down the Hotel's maintenance service elevator when a violent storm struck the building… and they were never seen again. Black scorch marks still scar The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror facade where lightning left its autograph.

The Elevator

A ride on the "fright elevator" beyond the eerie boiler room in the hotel basement could be down, then up, or maybe down again, or up and up—every experience is different and randomly selected by the Tower itself. There's no way of knowing which direction you'll go on the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.

Step aboard, if you dare. You're about to discover what lies beyond the deepest, darkest corner of the imagination.

This really is an awesome ride. you go forward and backward, up and down, and the best part is the computer running the ride chooses how may times you drop. For future reference for all of you if you ever get the chance, ride it! 

On to other things, like me. I have been working and playing a lot. I played basketball with my roommate Kevin a week or two ago, I also took a different Kevin and my roommate Ryan to Church Sunday night. It ended up being one of those nights that you just sing and have a short devo, so they didn't get to see what it is normally like, but they seemed ok with it. Later a bunch of my roommates and friends went to the hot tub, it felt great. We are getting along great still, and i'm getting to spend more time with them thanks to some scheduling that gives most of us the same days off. 

I still have yet to see anyone famous here even though i hear about celebs on property all the time. I guess the cast of HSM3 (High School Musical 3) was here last week, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas were here last week. I was hoping i might see them because they were staying at the resort right across the bay from the Boardwalk. Hollywood Studios just opened an attraction called the American Idol Experience so most of the people from American idol, past and present were here for that. I'm sure i'll see at least one before i leave. 

Last night and today I went to the parks with some people from work. It was a good time to hang with them outside of the shops and get to goof off and all in the parks. Last night at the Magic Kingdom we rode Space Mountain once, and Splash Mountain 6 times. We also got to see the Spectro Magic Parade that night, (great stuff, i'll post on that soon). After the light parade we ate at the Crystal Palace. It is themed after the Crystal Palace from Hyde Park in London, and is buffet style but the food is great! prime rib, garlic mashed potatoes, mac n' cheese, ice cream, chicken, pork,....should i go on? Also the characters from Winnie the Pooh come to your table and let you get pictures with them. It was great, wish i could have eaten more, maybe next time. 

I'm also excited for my mom, brother, and sister to come visit in March! it should be a good time. maybe i'll take them to the Crystal Palace, haha. either way it'll be nice to see some familiar faces, other than a mouse. Again, sorry it took so long to write, but i'll be better about it. 

Miss you all

Votes are in,....

Well, the votes are in, and it looks like i'll be spotlighting attractions around Walt Disney World. Don't worry, to full cover some attractions, I may also cover resorts or restaurants too. Thanks to all you who voted, i hope to have a new poll up soon. I'm going to plan out how to best cover everything and hope to have the first attractions post up before the end of the week. Be ready!

The weather is starting to remain warm for longer than a few days at a time, so thats always good. The statue in the picture above of Walt and Mickey is my latest purchase,... ok, not the real one, but a small replica. All I need is the miniature castle, anyone have some cash to spare, haha.

Miss you all.

The last outfit for you all to see. ESPN.

(Sorry no action shots of me yet)

Don't forget to vote!

This is the costume for the Sea Shore Sweets candy store.

Hey all, not much new here. I got a bit of a cold, but it's not too bad, i held off for a good amount of time, i'm the last one in the room to get it. Speaking of my room mates, i want to tell all my past room mates how much i wish i still lived with them cuz the ones i have now are gross dirty. I don't care how much laundry you may have had built up in the closet, it beats the dishes with food that collects up in the sink, and the scraps of lunch meat left on the counter, along with what ever else may spill. Oh and one of my room mates is either too lazy or was never told to lift the toilet seat before going to the restroom. Anyway, other than that they aren't too bad. 

The weather can't make up its mind on if its going to be cold or hot, we have one week freezing and the next is fine; the warm is starting up today so i'm happy. One of the guys that hangs out in my room drives a safari truck at Animal Kingdom, he said the other day that former N'sync member Joey Fatone, also from Dancing with the stars and one of those lyric singing shows, was on his truck the other day. That seems pretty neat too me even if it is just an Ex- boy band member. 

You all only have 4 days left to vote on the poll of what the blog will cover. I guess i should have mentioned, i will still post updates about me and things going on at work, church or in the room, but to add a little more i was seeing what you all want. 

Miss you all, hope all is well.

Next for the blog

Thanks all for voting on the poll of your favorite movie, I know i didn't have all options, but there are far too many to post. I'll try to do another one with different options later. The new poll is asking what you, the readers want to read and hear about. If there is something i don't have message me and let me know. Not a whole lot is new here, just working and going to parks on my off time, still. Work is fun still so thats good. A lot of college kids are working in the stores with me so it's nice to have people my age around the work place. Room mates are the same, get a little crazy some nights, but funny and nice. We knew a girl that came over a lot and made muffins, brownies, and cleaned the apt,... sadly so got terminated this week, so she is gone. I guess we will have to find a new one, haha. 

Travis, the room mate pictured a few posts ago works a ride at Epcot and said that last week Celine Dion and Rihanna rode the ride he works at, so thats neat. The Steelers, stole the Super Bowl from Arizona and where here too, but i didn't hear about any sightings from anyone.

Lastly, not that i'm begging or telling anyone to visit, but until April i get 60% off on Hotels, half off on Cirque de Sole, and i still have 3, 3 day tickets to give out. Think about it.

Miss you all.
