Big day yesterday. We left the house at 1:00am as planned. B managed to stay awake until almost 4 which helped me get through some of the really rough patches of the trip. We rolled into town about 6:20 and went to breakfast at IHOP. They piss me off sometimes. The food is better than Denny's but it's not THAT good. Yet their prices are way higher than I would pay for eggs at some fancy places. It's like "we know we're the only ones around open 24 hours and we're gonna milk that fact". Fuckers.
After breakfast we hit the parking lot. You can tell the convention is in full swing because for the first time, at 7:15am I sat in a line to get into the parking lot. It was full before midday. And I know they were all going across the street to the convention center because there were only four other people on the shuttle with us going to the park. You see, we opted for the one day D23 passes, not the full three days. We figured since we aren't 'con' people, all three days would have been too much. One solid day is more appropriate for our needs.
We had a good day at the parks. Went on a couple of rides, did some shopping, left around 1. We then went to Target to get some stuff including what I am wearing today. I am going as Anger from Inside Out. B is wearing an Iron Man dress as she is too self-conscious to fully plunge into a cosplay situation. But I found a white shirt, brown pants, and a grey tie. We got to the hotel about 1:30 and they checked us in. Unpack, organize, nap time. Slept until about 5:40.
Around 6 we went to Bubba Gump's for dinner. We love that place. We're going to miss it. None in OR or WA. 4 in Malaysia, but none in the NW. Whatever. Had a great dinner, head back to the hotel, and waited for a friend to call. She was picking up some fabric paint for me at WalMart to finish off my costume. She arrived around 9ish and B helped me by painting the tie.
Finally crawled into bed around 11.
Long busy day and today is going to be even more exciting.
