When I finally made it into DL, I made a beeline to the Guided Tour Garden, where my first surprise awaited me: Walt's Footsteps was booked solid for the entire day. I went over to the Blue Bayou, fully expecting that it would be booked solid for the entire day as well. That's when I got my second surprise: it WASN'T! They could fit me in at 8:20 PM, giving me time to not only see the fireworks, but to see them from Town Square, allowing me enough time to get into DCA in time for the late WoC! Then, I went and bought myself a hat, and then rode the new-and-improved Star Tours. Incidentally: does anybody know what the sauce is on the Bayou's latest variation on roast beef (the "strip loin")? It has a most unusual flavor.
