Chevrolet on the Streets of New York

When we were at Disney last year I took this photo. At the time it looked like GM might be going under. Their prices are high, their warranties are short and their recent body styles are less than impressive.

That being said, my favorite car that I've owned was a Chevy Lumina Z34. My second favorite was a '69 Chevy Nova. I wish I still had them.

Anyways, I wasn't sure that we'd see Chevrolet signs around for much longer and thought we should take a photo to show the grandkids.

This building stands in the Streets of New York at Hollywood Studios. It's a fun place to roam around while you wait for the Lights, Motors, Action show to start. You can also score some WOD (World of Disney) New York pins that I wasn't able to find anywhere else in the parks.

What's your favorite spot to buy or trade pins?

Star Wars Weekend at Hollywood Studios

I don't think I'll ever attempt Hollywood Studios on Star Wars weekend again. Not even to see Warwick Davis ride in the parade. Imagine the park filled to capacity and then empty about 50 more bus loads of people into it.

That being said, I'm really glad I did once. It was completely worth it just to be greeted by the Storm Troopers on the roof of the entrance.

They said "I didn't realize there was so many royals on this planet."

"Where?"

"See all the tiny humans riding in carriages."

Strangely enough it was really easy to get onto Star Tours that day. Everyone was standing in line for autographs or Jedi School I guess. Anyways, I like the ride just fine except for the heat and that made me queasy. I think it would benefit from some air conditioning.

How about you?
