You wanna know what the HIGHLIGHT of my day was yesterday?
Do ya? Do ya? Do ya? (sorry, I had too much coffee, I can hardly type).
...So I went on all these rides on Disneyland. And do you know what I come across?
CAPTAIN E.O.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I cannot add enough exclamation marks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I saw Captain E.O. when I was about 4 and adored it. And yesterday, seeing it at 25 (yep, 25), I still adored it. I think you all know how much I love MJ, and have always loved MJ...it didn't take his death to make me appreciate him.
But it did take his death to prompt Disneyland to bring back the attraction. I thought it was just a rumor. I. WAS. ECSTATIC.
Ohhhhhh man. One of the best birthdays ever because of it.
Wait? I'm 25? Shoot.
What is Captain E.O.?!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had an awesome day :D

I'm almost afraid to ask what Captain E.O. is...given your enthusiasm, you might yell at me :-/
ReplyDeleteOnly 25?? ...I know, I'm only a few years older. ;0)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy it, woman! You're at the halfway mark of your twenties... It's going by fast, huh??
OMG-- I must get my butt down to Disneyland to go see Captain EO again! I remember the claws coming out at me. (Did they show it in 3D?)
Do you remember the Wheel of Progress??? I LOOOVED that one. It's gone now. :(
D.
P.S. - One cool one they had in 2003 was the President Lincoln speech. They added a headphone feature that they didn't have when I was little. Have you seen it?
Looks like you had an AWESOME day!! Happy belated from me to you friend!! <3
ReplyDeletehahaha...guess I didn't explain it.
ReplyDeleteCaptain E.O. is a 3-D dance show with Michael Jackson. He's the captain of a spaceship and uses dance instead of hate (heh heh) to fight the Aliens :)
Loved it when I was young. Still (obviously) love it now.
D--Yeah, they did show it 3-D. I didn't even know about the Lincoln Speech, but I would love that! I'm always seeing new things at D-land!
Nice! Glad Captain E.O. is still awesome more than a decade later! I loved it when I was a kid too... and I think I get to see it on Sunday... fingers crossed.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, my friend.
ReplyDeleteThat's mental. I was all about the Moonwalker when I was younger...

Please explain Captain EO to the unenlightened like me :)
ReplyDeletehaha...sorry. I thought everyone knew of its goodness :) Silly me!
ReplyDeleteLook a few comments above and you will find out...
I'm so glad they brought it back. I haven't seen it since I was in elementary school.
