Epcot (A ride to the World)
I thought that I wasn’t going to like this Epcot, but it was the only park that gave me goose bumps.
When I saw the huge golf ball realized that in deed I was here… I just stared at it telling myself “Yes Hernan, you are here… get over it already”
The first thing we did was to walk around the World Showcase.
My favorites countries were Japan and its arquitecture, Morocco (where we ate the weirdest food) and most of all The Gran Fiesta Tour in Mexico.
There we got in to a boat and went on a virtual ride thru mexico with the Three Caballeros (Donald Duck, from The USA; Jose Carioca, from Brasil; y Panchito Romero Miguel Junipero Francisco Quintero González, From México)
Our last ride was asimulator that takes you on a fligth all over California. The waiting time was of 2 and half hours!!!
Something about Disney’s lines is that they put stuff to do or watch while you wait… in this case were some cool interactive games where all could participate using their hands.
It was fun the fist hour.
The end of the day were after the spectacular fire works.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios (Happy Happy)
We made it to Disney’s Hollywood Studios
The best of Disney’s Hollywood Studios was the Aerosmith Rollercoaster and our adventure trying to find an ATM.
The line for the Aerosmith ride was huge…almost an hour an a half of waiting time!! We were like “we have to do it” but the minute we got there a guy came to us and gave us a “fast pass” which allows you to skip the line completely… 5 minutes later we were in the front of the line.
The ride is great!
The tower of terror was also good. I took some pictures just when the door of the elevator opens and before the elevator falls.

Happy Happy
We needed cash, but it was difficult to find an ATM… we asked here and there and finally we got to one in the “Toy Story Section”
Nikki saw a sign of one other employee (a Japanese girl) that said that it was her birthday, so she said happy birthday to her… and then we left…
Then I remember from my Asian friends that Orientals don’t really show emotions so I suggested sing to her “Happy Birthday” and give her a real ‘American Experience’
We went from behind and started singing really loud a Happy Birthday (you would think that other people would join us… but nobody did)
She was so surprised… that started crying… When the time of saying her name came we all looked at her plaque and it said: “Happy”… So her name was Happy!!!
We made Happy to happy!!! What a great day!
Vision
Since I found out I am going to Disney World I can’t think in anything else. Going to Disney World is a dream I had since I was a kid…
I still can’t believe it… in fact, I wont believe it until I am there looking at the castle next to Mickey, Goofy (in Argentina we call him Tribilin) and Donald.
My friend,Troy ,showed me this picture with the quote from Walt Disney himself: VISION “It’s kind of fun to do the imposible.”
Disney World Here We go!! ( Road Trip 2008 )
Well I am starting my road trip 2008, something I was looking forward to do since last summer. This time we are going to the north and part of the east coast of the US. (And some cities of Florida)
The adventure starts this Sunday -04.20.200- when my friend Jon is picking me up to go to Las Vegas. From Las Vegas we are flying to Tampa, Florida… and Even tho Las Vegas and Tampa sound awesome.. the only thing I am excited about is to visit the only place I regret not have visited last summer: Disney World!!!
After Orlando we’ll go back to Salt Lake City.
(Diarios de una camioneta 2)
May 2nd 2008- is scheduled to start officially our road trip on a truck… We are going to head up north to Yellowstone (Wyoming) and find out if it is actually yellow. Then to Mount Rushmore (South Dakota) See the faces and all.
We are thinking to Visit Miniampolis, The Michigan Lake, and Chicago, Illinois (which is my first big stop) There Jon gets out and Patrick gets in (Yes, the original Patrick of the road trip 2007)
We are going to Detroit, Michigan (the second big stop) There I’ll visit some friends (The Ls) and head up to Niagara Falls, New York; and show off that I saw something better (Iguazu Falls)
After this it gets confusing because I am not sure where I am going to go, but the plan is to get to know Boston, Massachusetts; New York, New York; and Washington, DC…
Here we go, take a seat and I hope you enjoy… I know I will.

Disney World
Aparently there is a whole cult about visiting Walt Disney’s World.
Disney World (1971- ) is the most visited place in America. It is a huge park in the middle of Florida, twice the size of Manhattan, making it the largest man-made playground in the world.
It gets four times more visitors than Florence, Italy.
It is run by Disney, the American film company that gave the world Mickey Mouse.
It is like their Disneyland in California, but it is newer and far larger.
The lessons learned in building Disneyland were applied to Disney World.
Disney World has four parks:
1971: Magic Kingdom (Which we plan to visit)
1982: Epcot Center
1989: Disney MGM Studio
1998: Animal Kingdom (Also in the top of our list)
I am so excited… 7 days from today… AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH
Forgot, after Orlando we might take a quick visit to SoBe (Miami Beach)
