I make reservations at Port Orleans Riverside (former Dixie Landings.) We check in at 5:30pm. We get settled and go to the Roost (former Coop) and listen to Bob Jackson play the piano and eat nachos and drink beer. 12-01-02 I call Aaron for his birthday but he is not in. We have breakfast at the food court. Then we head to the Magic Kingdom by bus. We buy an annual plus pass for about $500 each. We take a break at the Horseshoe Revue. They have a real good show and you donft have to have reservations for it anymore. We have lunch at the Columbia Harbor House which use to be an expensive sit down restaurant. We take a boat from our hotel over to Downtown Disney. We look thru a lot of shops and end up eating outside at Wolfgang Puck Express. We catch the last boat back at 11:30. We are the only ones on the boat. It is very cold. The captain of the boat is Martin formerly from Dillon CO. We talk to him for quite a while. So ends our first great day at Disney World. 12-02-02 I finally get hold of Aaron and talk to him for quite a while. He wanted Jack and I to go to a canyon in Mexico with him after Christmas. But Jack wouldnft do that. We have another breakfast at the food court. Then itfs off to Epcot. We head for the World Showcase. We stop for a coffee break in Norway. I GREAT cappicino?Ifll be back! We have lunch at Liberty Inn in USA. We head back to the hotel. I meet Debbie Epperson, Gerry Epperson and Julie Ambrose at Epcot to go to the Candlelight Procession with them. What a great concert! I will have to go back a couple more times. We go shopping at Marketplace. I catch the LAST bus at midnight. 12-03-02 We find out that we get to stay in our same room till the 14th. We get to stay for $85 per night as opposed to $133. We had reservations at All Star Music for $55 per night but we would rather be here. We are so lucky!Jack and I go off Disney property to do some grocery shopping and to get more copies made of my Christmas letter. We have lunch at Arbyfs while we are out. We go to MGM and see a couple shows. We see the Osborne Lights get turned on. We then head to Epcot via bus and monorail. We have supper at the Electric Umbrella.
