Lounge of Tomorrow - View Single Post - Submarine Voyage

Not Afraid · 06-25-2007, 11:23 AM

What a great day! It had all of the elements that make for great memories (as per usual with this group). You could've heard a pin drop as we all rode the subs - all 23 of us - until we stopped for a "crab crossing" ans we noticed the mermaid and the sea serpent. They CM's were really nice (and patient) with us and even let Morri join us as we were ready to board the ride. Hats off to the great CMs! We all sang "We all ride on a Yellow Submarine" before launch.

We had a great breakfast at Cafe Orelans (side of Bacon, please) and, again, the CMs were fantastic - seating all 24 of us within 15 minutes (Lisa, party of alot, your table's ready.)

After some fun in the Island we headed back to use our Space FPs stopping by the Hub for a few quick hellos. We split ourselves into 2 groups of 12 and made sure we distributed the weight
between the cars. OOPS. The sides of bacon must've put us over the top of the weight limit, because we sunk the thing. At least Moonie was on the sunk rocket and got to experience that kind of unusual fun. Plus, that meant that most of us got to ride with the psychedelic glasses.

We decided it was time for a ride on the Monorail and we had possibly the BEST monorail experience ever! We had an entire car to ourselves and, while in the station, someone started singing "We all live in a Yellow Monorail". As we left the station, a CM yelled "Keep Singing" so we did - the whole way to DTD, making up verses as we went. We arrived at DTD singing the chorus at the top of our lungs. (And changed it to "We all get a Yellow Hand Stamp" as we left the park.) It was monumental fun.

We headed over to the DL Hotel and ended up sitting on the grass under a tree outside of the LOST BAR. We even had a server offer to get us drinks (an offer which we, of course, accepted). It was something new and different for us and it always amazes me that we can find new fun things to do at the DLR. We also hung out with our newest friend, SkinnyLycan, who immediately joined the board. Welcome Skinny legs.

)

Some folks returned to the park for dinner and FW and some us went to Steakhouse 55 for dinner. Dinner was lovely and it was great to spend some quality time with Moonie, the lovely headliner, MG and the patient Boy (as well as Lindy).

I was amazed that when we left, it was still light outside, for I was EXHAUSTED, fulfilled and very happy.

Thanks for an INCREDIBLE day everyone!
