Orlando Day 3 - Disney MGM Studios
We began the next day by visiting Disney MGM Studios (now known as Disney Hollywood Studios), the movie/film industry themed portion of Walt Disney World.
Everyone felt so uppity that day that we took almost 10 pictures every 3 minutes... we barely walked 5 steps and all of us just stopped to take pictures...
We took pictures with anything that catches the eye... even just a car on the side of the road...
MGM Studios has sets for filming scenes in certain cities... for example San Francisco (the pic above)...
... and the classic New York City. Personally I think the NYC set looks more convincing, what do you think?
The ride of the day... The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror in the Hollywood Tower Hotel... the ride drops you down and shoots you up multiple times and you can see the view outside as well... got us pumped with adrenaline. Good thing we got on this ride before lunch.
Car stunt show was both fun and educational... and they try to slip in some comedic appeal as well, which, for the easily amused me, worked excellently. The show featured some car stunts and also some 'how we did it', with a cameo by the famous Volkswagon Herbie (the Love Bug) and a big explosion to end the show.
As with previous Disney parks... go to the Disney store, wear fancy hats, take pictures, put them back. Pick another hat, take pictures, put em back. Rinse and repeat. Haha we're so cheap! We're the real Mad Hatters of Disney!
