April 13 – Magic Kingdom
After breakfast I headed out to visit my favourite dentist again. This time Mom and Phil came with me so they could check out the Barnes and Noble book store that is in the same parking lot. The appointment only took about a half hour and there was no cost (other than the cab fare). This time the dentist had some staff available to assist him.

Interesting side
note: The driver that took us back to Pop Century had quite a few
stories about customers with GPS on their phones. He could actually
see the places they wanted to go to, but they would insist that he
follow the directions on their phones. At times it would cost the
customer over $20 more than it would have if they had just let him do
what he is paid for. He'd even say “See the roof of that building
to your left? That's the building you are wanting to go to.” The
customers would insist that he make a right hand turn because that's
what their GPS said to do. He said it gets really frustrating, but
it's not worth arguing about it.
When we got back to
Pop Century, we gathered Jeff and Suzanne to head for Magic Kingdom.
Robert felt that Magic Kingdom isn't his thing so he stayed back at
his time share to rest.
We finally rode the
Walt Disney World Railroad. Then picked up some more Sorcerers of
the Magic Kingdom cards.
Next was Walt
Disney's Carousel of Progress, Tomorrowland Transit Authority
PeopleMover, Mickey's PhilharMagic and finally It's a Small World
(which Jeff gave a miss).
It was looking like
there might be a bit of a storm coming so we headed back to Pop
Century. Suzanne wanted to swim but they don't let you when there
is a storm brewing.
We are surprised
that there are still so many people in the parks. The crowd
calendars all said it should be better with a lot less people after
the Easter holidays. But it looks like no one wants to go home.
