The "Yes, It's Saturday But I Have a Ton Of Disney Details", edition.

No iPod shuffle since I'm not in the chair.  However, this reminds me to get the iPod out of my dialysis bag so I can recharge it. You remember me telling you about the dialysis bag.  The center gave me the bag my first day there.  I now carry my blanket, my iPod,, my iPad, spare headphones, my candy and whatever else I may need. It had a blanket and some information about the center and dialysis, when it was given to me.  When I travel, I need to figure out how I'm going to do dialysis bag for the center I'm visiting.  My plan for the Orlando center was to us my airline carry on bag and purchase a Disney throw at a park.

Disney has no shortage of where to purchase their products. EPCOT has a mega store, Mouse Gear ( get it? ). Well apparently each week they have a "spend this much and buy that for a discounted price".  On Saturday, the bargain was spend $25.00, purchase a tote for $15.00 and spend $40.00, purchase a Mickey Mouse Sorcerers Apprentice watch for $18.00.  Well, I wanted the tote, for my dialysis bag, and Brian wanted the watch, because Brian is a watch addict- lol.  It just so happened that we were purchasing Perry the Platypus t-shirts. ( lol. Don't judge us..just don't. Lol ). Actually I went for the shirt and Brian decided he wanted one also.   ;-\ ( so now we have that married couple wearing the same outfit look)  In addition, I was looking for a Perry the Platypus throw.  I had seen it online, so I assumed it would  be at a Disney store on the Disney premises.  It wasn't.  So I told Brian that since we were going to Downtown Disney the next day, I should find it there, so lets  go ahead and get the watch. <3. 

Moving along...Dinner time was at the Coral Reef restaurant, at The Seas with Nemo and Friends Pavilion.  A single wall faces a  5.7 million gallon salt water tank.  You can see sharks, sea turtles, barracudas and other fishy things swim by as you eat, including divers. Disney, being Disney, has guided diving tours with the fish in the tank.  So yeah, divers also swam past as we ate. Lol. And yes, the food was great.  I had a lobster pasta and a Baileys mouse thing for desert.  Yum. Oh, yum.....

After dinner, Brian pushed me and my wheelchair back to the rental center.  They allowed us to take the wheelchair to where we catch the bus. :-)  We made it back to the hotel and called it a day.  I'd made reservations in April for the five of us to attend the Kirk Franklin Gospel Brunch at the House of Blues at Downtown Disney on Sunday, the next day. It was also Father's Day. I was hoping it would be nice. We were not disappointed. :-)
