Non stop action
... festival, and the park was packed. I went on a few rides and wandered around the world showcase, a series of sections dedicated to different countires. It's very impressive. Unfortunately it was rather hot and I got sunburnt. Then it rained and I got soaked! So I'm back at the hotel, recuperating until my dinner reservations this evening. I'm going to Cinderella's castle. Squee! (That's my inner 5-year old squealing, doing a happy dance, and adjusting her ...

Shamu and the Hulk
... especially to my sister, I could barely speak to her, let alone breathe! I was just staring at her, smiling, laughing and crying! As her little "verne" face came onto my screen I just BURST into tears- my chest was so tight, it was mental. An emotional mixture of laughter with heavy sobbing and hysterical crying.
