Posted on by Mike Scopa
We’ve been trying to see the Indiana Jones stunt spectacular at the Studios for a ong time. Thus today we started out in Disney-MGM Studios.

Posted on by Mike Scopa
Finally the day came when Carol could “legally” wear her “Happy Birthday” button.

Put your hands together because I actually got out of bed on this morning at around 5:30, put on my running gear and went out at 5:45 to run around the resort.

Posted on by AllEars
I visited the Contemporary Resort on 8/22/07. Construction abounds. First, the lobby is undergoing a complete makeover. When you enter the building from the main entrance, the first thing you’ll notice is the statue of Mickey has been removed. I have no idea if this is temporary or permanent. Only time will tell.

Day 7 — The M-Day…MGM, Muppets, and Mama’s

Posted on by Mike Scopa
I knew it was going to be next to impossible to get up early and run after getting in after 1 A.M. I was right. I woke up at 8:30. Please don’t tell anyone. I have a reputation to uphold.
