Day 4, Part 2...Power Rangers, Spectacular Lights and Pony Rides

So, after the poo-tiful (haha, I kill me) excitement at the pool, and Tim getting a much deserved beer...we headed  back to rest up, shower and head to Hollywood Studios to see the Hollywood Studios Osbourne Light Spectacular. And yes, its spectacular... however, we did have to wait until darkness fell and Hollywood Studios (I am so not used to it not being MGM) has a lot of fun stuff too. Ty and I went on The Great Movie Ride... it was fun except for lady who pushed her whole family in front of Ty and me... She ran ahead and literally had to get in front of the two of us... I started to get a bit heated, so I asked the cast member dude if I could switch to the other line. I really cannot stand rude people. I bit my tongue and swore I would enjoy it :) We did get on the ride before the rudey rudes and I felt satisfied. The ride was cute, esp the Wizard of Oz part. I was smitten and especially proud that Ty knew the songs. We got off and met up with Tim who had beer and pretzel in hand. Nice. 

We saw Lightening McQueen and Tow Mater.... Here is Ty showing off his cars... haha





We rolled over to the Osbourne area and WAH-LAH! The love affair with The Power Rangers began! If I could capture the wonder and amazement in Ty's eyes and bottle it up... it was precious and magical. 


Check out the Power Ranger determination in that face!!!

Then they do this little karate performance before getting on their special vehicle that is blaring the power ranger rockness. haha

Then it was off to get his face painted. He was so excited about this and sat so nicely. As soon as the Simba lion face makeup was on, Ty was in character. So cute. 

Rrrrrooooarrrr!!!

Showing his teeth... grrrr

Still adorable though

and knows how to ROCK..

And then we came upon Mulch, Sweat and Shears... Fun little band that did their own take on Christmas music. The singer definitely influenced by Jack Black. It totally worked and they were hilarious and talented... More on them in another post...

Where is Tim and Ty ... can you spot them?

Then it was time for the light. I am not gonna lie, I situated us right near where they flip the switch. I wanted them to pick Ty... Avast, they did not, however it was crazy magical fun.  My favorite is when they play Feliz Navidad... dunno why, but it reminds me of my childhood... maybe thats why... 
Self portrait of our faces :)


Another angle of the lights... 


Tim and Ty were in deep conversation... I didn't interrupt.. haha

Self family portrait... getting better at it . haha
Then it was off to Whispering Canyon Cafe...





And I'll take another Year of a Million Dreams glow drink...
so what if I get it for the glow... HOLLA!


The food was YUM... I actually liked the ribs, which I usually never eat. The ketchup game was played... haha and our server was awesome. Tyler got to ride the pony ride, however, his wooden pony head broke off and he cried... so they gave him a new one and Tim and Ty rocked a solo lap around the restaurant. Yes, it made me giggle quite a bit.

heeheeeheeeeee

Some diet cheesecake... shut up, thats how I can rest my head at night. 
ITs diet... especially the decadent chocolate and marshmallow...oh the caramel...ummmmm wha, wait, what were we talking about... 

We were there long enough for another pony ride! Check out the shirt... notice its different? haha We had to switch shirts because it started to get covered in all the Simba faceness... and while you don't have to be all fancy pants in Disney, you want to look sort of clean. haha


When we were finished, we walked out and there was a table filled with Lincoln Logs... Ty of course LOVED that.
We looked around the Wilderness Lodge for a while. It is really themed well. I really felt like I was locked away in the Wilderness. That is one thing about Disney.. It magically whisks you away to so many different places and emotions. Sigh...

Check out this cute little ornament.





So here we are, at the end of Day 4... Incredibly fun and just magic. I know I keep saying that, but it is.
Incredible place.
Up next...Grand Floridian, Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Sushi, Fireworks and All Star MOVIES. WHAT?
