Disney, hockey-eh and whatnot.
Let's see....
Had friday off so I sat around waiting for everyone else to get freed up. Waited a little too long and had to make up some time, which was fun and bad for fuel economy. A very late dinner to which Christie arrived very tired and late, having hit lots of traffic on her long journey. Woke up way too early the next day, didn't eat, just headed straight to the awesomeness that is Disney. Upon arrival, we realized we were hungry and immediately had to track down some food. Next up was Space Mountain, which broke for a bit while we were waiting in line. No worries it came back on line and was flippin sweet. On to the Haunted Mansion (the ultimate lazy ride) which, surprisingly, didn't break but managed to be flippin sweet in other ways. I think next we got some snacks and headed for Epcot.
So...yeah Epcot....that ride in the big ball that's all about communication or whatever....it was completely pointless. But it did break for a bit while we were waiting in line. Oh and Zoli + Xtal got caught smooching like a couple of newlyweds...damn kids. On to drinking around the World!!! Started with Dos Equis Mexico, couldn't find any booze in Norway, got some kinda beer in China, ummm Germany for brats and Becks Dark, possibly something else in there, I forget. Italy just had wine, so screw them. America doesn't count. I think Japan was next? Had some beer there, some people snacked. Went back 3 countries to find a restroom, only to discover one on the other side of Japan. woops. On to France, where they actually had beer, along with tasty alcoholic slushies. England for fish and chips (both tasty), Canada for....nothing I guess. Back to Norway for the single most pointless ride ever. I don't remember if it broke or not. We were too drunk to care at that point. Test Drive was aight, but it did break for a bit while we were in line. Oh I almost forgot, while we in Germany, Conan called about the hockey-eh game and we agreed to drive down. Not sure what we would have said sober, but that's neither here nor there.
Woke up way too early the next day, running late so hauling ass. Then the jackass driver you may have heard about. Weaving and swerving doesn't begin to describe it. He ran multiple people off the road, myself included, spun out into the bushes once, had FHP keeping tabs on him for an hour thanks to numerous phone calls, it was nuts. And he provided an excuse to haul even more ass, which was bad for fuel economy. Finally got a worthless-looking fatass statey to pull him over. On to the hockey-eh game!!!
Seems somebody screwed up, so instead of the box, they put everyone up in the Private Club area, which was packed. The downside was that it obviously wasn't very private, and we had to stand the whole time. The upside was free food (mmmm good) and drinks (mmm good). So people drank, good time was had by all, Panthers lost on a BS call, and.....On to wherever the hell it was we went for food afterwards!!!
So we ate and laughed and such, then Ray, Adri, Christie and I tumbled back into the car for the trek back to Otown, which I slept through, as did Christie?? Poor Ray kindly drove, and poor Adri kindly kept Ray awake so the kids could sleep in back. Then I hauled ass back to Jax, which was bad for fuel economy. Got back to the ship at 4:30 am, only to find out we were getting up early that morning. So yeah....but then I slept a lot the next night.
