Disney world (pirates and pals)

    Ok so yesterday was amazing, even though today I'm completely drained, and sore. As the title states, yes I die make it to Disney World, and why no I didn't go in to an actual theme park I managed to explore and have an excellent day.
    I started off in downtown Disney shopping district (Tip: free admission as well as free parking!) the first store I went to was D-street the vinylmation store, and instead of buying a new one I had simply brought one of the ones I owned but didn't like too much and was able to trade it! I ended up with a 40th anniversary one it was very nice. After that I looked in the art stores that have amazing paintings and reprints as well as sculptures. Finally I got to go in the days of Christmas store (it's a seasonal shop, yet it remains open all year and has every holiday item you could want. 
    After that I headed to the busses and visited some of the resorts: contemporary they had abeautiful Christmas tree made entirely of gingerbread. Grand Floridian was a very elegant old time resorts their tree displayed bird cages it was interesting, but it worked. Behind the tree though was an actual gingerbread house, one you could walk through! I haft to fight the urge to take a bite lol. 
    After that I went back to downtown via bus and went into the world of Disney store the largest Disney store in the world (I was gpod and just window shopped lol). I was starving at this point so I made my way over to planet hollywood where I had the best chicken I've had in awhile , and yes I had a huge dessert. After I needed a break so I decided to sit in front of the fountain and I noticed a group of people my age, yet they were all signing. Honestly thought it was cool. 
    Anyway I got a wrong bus and ended up at port Orleans didn't have much time since my right bus came as soon as I got off, and it took me to Epcot. Got my picture in front of the ball, and hoped on the monorail back to contemporary.
    There I was taking part in the pirate and palls firework voyage. Once I got there I checked in and a small group of ppl including myself went into a room where icecream, cake, cotton candy, beverages, and a few other snacks were waiting just for us. After everyone had started eating Captain Hook and Mr. Smee came out to meet us. Then after everyone had got their pictures we split up into two groups team hook or team Smee (I was in Smee). Then we went to the docks where we all boarded 1 of 2 boats. The boats took us out into the seven seas lagoon where we got to watch the electrical water pageant up close. Then we kept on they sang songs and had pirate trivia. But then we stopped right in front of the Magic Kingdom just in time for a waterside viewing of the firework show! It was amazing!then the boats made their way back to the docks, but there was one surprise left. We were told to close our eyes and believe in magic and then Peter Pan appeared on the docks waiting for us. Once everyone disembarked we all went and got to meet Peter (that has been on my Disney bucket list for a looong time!). 
    Then it was time to say goodbye and grab a bus back to downtown and get to my car then finally I made my way home 
    Thinking back about all I did and was able to do I was very thankful. I'm getting better a little each day and while I'm not 100% great I'm getting stronger, and aren't letting anything hold me back from living!
