A Less-Than-Magical Day

The following is an old story I've previously posted in a friends-only version in this blog, but for various reasons I needed to re-post it for any and all readers to enjoy the beautiful moment fondly remembered here

Well, how was the trip after the parking lot?

[sueprano]

Cool at times, and pretty funny at other times, and, in the end, maddeningly frustrating. We got a "backstage tour" of the cast-members-only area, and saw the underground tunnels where they shuttle all the food and staff and whatnot around to the different areas of the park. Then we performed at the Tomorrowland Theater, which I'm pretty sure no longer exists, and were billed not as the Dartmouth College Glee Club from Hanover, New Hampshire, but rather as the Dartmouth College Glee Club from Zellwood, Florida. Halfway through the concert a terrific lightning show started up in the sky overhead, and the wind began to stir, but no rain, and since we were under a shelter we kept on singing. That is, until the cables leading to the microphone started to smoke. The End! We then had something like an hour and a half in the park, so we all made a mad dash for Pirates of the Caribbean, our one and only ride of the day.

Stay tuned for a post about my latest trip there....
