Day 26: Orlando - Disney World
June 21: Today was spent at Magic Kingdom and Epcot again, as well as the final moment at MGM.
Got to do a few rides at the seven lands - Adventureland (Jungle cruise, Pirates of the Carribean), Main Street USA, Frontierland, Liberty Square (Hall of Presidents, Haunted Mansion), Fantasyland (Snow White, Winnie the Pooh, Cinderellabration show, Peter Pan, It's a Small World), Mickey's Toontown Fair (where yes, I got to meet adn hug Mickey Mouse - my highlight!), Tomorrowland (Walt Disney Carousel through the last 100 years of technology and society).
At Epcot, saw the rest of the countries briefly, liked USA (saw a show about American History set in a building replica of Philadelphia's Liberty Hall), Morocco and Canada (film promoting Canada and its beauty), among other things... before the rain hit again.
Returned to MGM to buy some cartoon cels (which are about one-third the price compared to my Australian guy I buy them through), and to see the night show, Fantasmic! - which it was.
I'm a bit over the crowds, weather and theme park idea, but had lots of fun and I got to meet Mickey, which was my goal!
