and I think I’m going to start taking advantage of YouTube for the generic type stuff. Since my photo gallery can embed movies and I can do that here, too. I’ve got a few photos from May when we went to the Star Tours 3D to upload, still, but I have uploaded the Ariel’s Undersea Adventure already.
You can find all the Ariel pictures at my photo gallery, but here are a couple I really liked.
Like our trip in May, we ended up in the far parking structure. Unlike last month, we weren’t parked on the far side of the structure, the farthest point from the parks.
We were on the next to the top level, you can see the sky at the top of the photo

It’s hard for me to gauge the end of the step and I’m terrified that I’ll slip and roll all the way down. It takes me a while to actually step on one. It helps if I take my glasses off.

Once again, we had lunch at Ralph Brennan’s Jazz Kitchen, then headed over to DCA.
I didn’t take a picture of the line at the new ride when we got there, it was pretty short and I figured it would be a walk on. I was wrong. I took this photo afterward.

From start to finish, it took about thirty-five minutes. Really not a bad wait. Then we walked around the park, went over to Burrbank, got hot fudge sundaes, then called it a day. There were crowds.
