Hollywood Studios

On Sunday we used the last day on our Disney passes to visit Hollywood Studios. Leslie, our tour guide, had a full day planned so we left the RV Park early. Even at that, the parking lot was pretty full and we parked at FILM 32 --

It's a good thing the trams were making lots of trips. We only waited for a couple of minutes.

There's the Sorcerer's Hat.  It's THE landmark of Hollywood Studios --

The entrance to Hollywood Studios with everything built to look like the heyday of Hollywood --

The haunted Hollywood Tower Hotel --

Designed to look long empty with dust and cobwebs throughout the structure --

We passed through the empty lobby to ride the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror -- What a ride!

We spent time in the Animation Studio learning how to draw Dopey --
 

 

We saw the musical, Voyage of the Little Mermaid --

Went on a tour of the backstage lots and saw how many of the special effects were done --

Bill went over to the Brown Derby and returned with slices of this luscious Grapefruit Cake --

This is the set for the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular --

The Streets of America -- How about New York?

Or San Francisco -- Doesn't that hill look real?

We saw another parade -- this one featured many of the Pixar characters -- 
 

 

We went on rides that took us past many of the iconic movie sets --

We had lunch at the 50's Prime Time Cafe -- just look at all that chrome!

What else did we do? Let's see - we saw the Muppets 3D; Walt Disney: One Man's Dream; Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage; and the Star Tours ride. It definitely was a busy day.
