Barry and Noemi in Disney World, 1996
In the days before Christmas, Barry and Noemi entered the sunny, mid-70 season of Disney World. It's always sunny there, isn't it. At least, it feels like it should be.
The first day was an all day exploration of the Magic Kingdom, the highlight being Tomorrow Land. The next day and a half was spent at Epcot, with the final evening (Christmas Eve) spent exploring the near empty Disney/MGM studios (3D Muppets and the Star Wars ride!). Our last day - a half-day- was spent running around MGM again.
At night we went to Disney's Pleasure Island- there own innocuous Sin City. 7 night clubs for one price, all set in a fake city hot spot. Very cool.

the 25th anniversary of Disney World,
Cinderella's castle, dressed up as
a giant candy castle).

Yet another parade!
Noemi decided that Disney was a kid
who never was allowed to see fireworks
or go to parades, and dreamed of a place
where there would be parades and fireworks
all day and all night long. Then he made it.
Happy and tired after a busy day.
