Day 5
The sunrise this morning was pretty!
There
were three more pieces of spam under the door this morning, and one of them was
a repeat. Just how low will they stoop? There are not a lot of pictures on
this day; my notes say “studying hard, eating sensibly, walking, and working”.
I did take a trip to Downtown Disney to pick up some items that I’d seen in the
parks, and to look over the watches there. I fell in love with a gold
Tinkerbell watch, and had to have it. It’s a Skagen – Todd thinks that is a
great brand. Me, I dunno nuthin’ ‘bout watch brands. I just know what I like
when I see it.
After
my sessions ended today, I retired to the quiet little courtyard at the Swan and
did some work stuff. When at last the battery gave a warning, I dumped it back
in my room at the Dolphin, changed my clothes, and took a walk around the lake.
Then I changed out of sweaty clothes and hoofed it into Epcot, a bit more
leisurely in pace. On the way, I snapped a shot of the lady on the pirate ship
that is anchored outside the Yacht & Beach Club. By this time, the sun was
going down and I was around all the countries in no time, nibbling here and
there. Loverboy was playing at the American Adventure Theater. And I spotted
something really weird up in a tree! Ended up back in France, bought a
chocolate mousse, and took it with me on the boat back to the Dolphin.
Well, I walked into the room about a quarter of nine, and decided to settle in
on the balcony for the fireworks, when I became inspired. I ran inside and got
my laptop, ran back out, and fired up iTunes! Yep, I've got the Millenium
Celebration CD in there, and I queued up the music for Reflections of Earth
ALMOST in time to the fireworks. The family on the balcony below to the right
of me was most appreciative.
