8 hours at the Park...relaxed yet?

British Revolution rocking the Plaza.

Me and my buddy, "The Spitting Gargoyle".

The japanese "Pearl Only" salespeople.
No matter what Park you go to, no matter what city it's in, and no matter what your expectations are, there will always be some consistency that you can count on. The food will always be out of an Industrial Kitchen, the Crowds will always drive you crazy, and lastly, you will always have fun.
We spent a full day today at Epcot...we went on the rides (Soarin being the best), toured the pavilions and did some people watching (a great sport at parks). The highlights were... 1) a British rock band called, "The British Revolution", these guys did Beatles, Herman's Hermit's, The Dave Clark Five and The Who...ever song had Nancy and I either humming or singing along (that's how I judge if a band's good!) 2nd) Seeing and reading about the Spitting Gargoyle...this puppy sits atop Notre Dame Cathedral and besides Quasimodo  it is the most photographed statue...you can see how much we look alike in the photo. 3rd) a stop at the Japanese Pavilion where I saw Japanese women selling Pearls-in-the-oyster. Most of you know this has been my gig for the past 15 years...I got to tell you, we kick their ass! They have huge crowds, a captured audience and people with money in their pockets, however they lack any kind of sales ability. No kidding if we had this location we'd rock the place! The last and most fun thing we did today was people watching...I know everyone does this, I need to figure out how to make a living at it! Gotta be a way.
