Universal Fail


We ended up sleeping at about 4am and got up at 9, then laid around for ages and Hannah was busy so Universal didnt happen...we are going Wednesday now instead though!
So I got into MK about 2pm with Jen. I got more sorcerers cards (still less than halfway to collecting them and already getting 2 packs in a row with no new ones!) and put our stuff in the lockers then Jen went to meet Merida and I met Hannah, and we got caught in mental rain and had to wait in the Emporium, the Dapper Dans sung for us though! Then about 4pm it calmed down and we ran for it to Be Our Guest to see if they had cancellations, we still got quite wet! They did!! So jen, hannah and I got to eat there!
Background; its the brand new restaurant in Fantasyland themed on Beauty and the Beast, and its meant to be French, and its so popular its taken the heat off of Cinderellas royal table, and rumour has it you have to book 18 months in advance! So we were lucky!

The atmosphere was lovely, great decor, fake snow outside the windows, you didnt feel like you were in MK, but in the Beast's castle! We were starving and wolfed down the lovely warm bread with loads of butter (well, I did!) and took some photos in the mysterious room with the rose, then for mains I had puff pastry with scallops and shrimp and creamy lobster sauce yum! Then a chocolate mousse-y dessert and some 'grey stuff' which was lovely but tiny, and taste like icing!
It came to about $28, not too bad! Then we met the beast, such a gentleman kissing our hand and bowing ha. When he came through the ballroom earlier it was like a celebrity, everyone cheered and he waved! Then Jen went off to work and Hannah and I went exploring. It was still raining so we did Philharmagic, a 3D show with 360 degree screen and featuring good disney songs i liked it!! First song was Be Our Guest ha! Then Winnie the Pooh, hmmm,and Teacups, where we saw Bet working. Then we headed to tomorrow land and did Buzz, (hannah won!)
Deep in concentration!
Hannah's Score!
My pitiful score
and Peoplemover which id never done and loved! We saw Edd working there, and it was like a small train round the land and you got to go inside buzz and Space mountain and other things, awesome! We wanted to go on Space but the queue was too long. We did Carousel of progress too, these two rides were original rides from the Worlds Fair, before Disneyland existed! It was interesting, but had a creepy song.."its a great big beautiful tomorrow..."
It was getting late so we grabbed a monorail and bus to HS, and we did Star Tours (Darth vader was in it this time!)watched the Monsters party (still love it) and finally completed the Great Movie Ride!
Loners on the great movie ride! 

Then best of all we headed to the Animation Class, and drew Piglet!! I want to go again and draw Eeyore.
My masterpiece!

The park closed so we headed to the Friendship (cringe) and got off at Boardwalk, got icecream, walked around and then chatted on the beach for a few hours, lovely!

The other day I got to try Venezuelan food with our friend Gus, was interesting!! I tried wrap type thing made with sweetcorn and a slab of cheese with sour cream (yum) and then a pitta kind of thing with a chicken avacado mayo mix.

Work on Sunday.... Jules and I were given CROSSINGS! This was scary as thats the training day i missed, and if you mess it up guests are in the street with floats coming at them!! I was meant to be calling, ie deciding when they could cross (ah!) but we swapped. We were in Town Square and had to set up ropes then be prepared for 6 different crossings and keeping people under control, then break everything down so people could leave, then we went to the hub to keep people behind tape for fireworks, then back to the same position again to do it all over for the 11pm!! Very scary, but we did it with nothing going too wrong!!!

Also I got an email through confirming my place to go to Everest!!
