DLR Pirate's Lair

Yesterday Shane, Kellie, Sandy & I went to DLR to check out the new Pirate's Lair attraction. John-George & Devon met us for half the day. We turned in our last VMK Quests (as DLR VMK Central closes for good today), and got to see the new Subs ("Resurfacing June 11") in action as Cast Members sneak a peak. The Pirate's Lair had neat effects and was lots of fun. They have integrated the Pirate's the Caribbean mythos with Tom Sawyer's Island and given Jack Sparrow a new home in Disneyland.

After the island, Shane and I ride the Davy Crockett's Explorer Canoes. This was his first time ever on the boats. The evening closes with a Monorail trip out to Downtown Disney's ESPN Sport Zone for dinner to watch the Ducks in a Stanely Cup game. Not only was the restaurant busy for the game, but there was a prom going on. In fact, we only got seated "so quickly" (waited an hour) because someone left and gave us their buzzer. The name was Soap. Heh. Shane, Kellie, Sandy & I had a great time eating and chatting. It was good to shoot the bull with friends.
