Tom's B-day Trip To Disney Part 6 -Jeff's Photos

This is the last installment of the 2 day surprise (Tom) birthday trip to Disney. These are mostly pictures taken by our friend Jeff.
ON THE TEST-TRACK AT EPCOT - Test Track is an attraction at Epcot. Sponsored by General Motors [1], Test Track is a simulated excursion through the rigorous testing procedures that General Motors uses to evaluate its cars, culminating in a high-speed drive around the exterior of the attraction. Here's a photo of Tom and Rob, Darold and Jeff taken at the end of the ride!

TO SEE A VIDEO OF WHAT TEST TRACK IS LIKE - Check out this Disney-produced video of the entire ride!




THE AMERICAN MINUTEMEN AT EPCOT - Jeff took this picture of the Minutemen performing outside the America Pavilion.




A MOTLEY CREW - Tom, Rob, Darold and Tobie took a breather after the American Experience at EPCOT while Jeff captured the moment.



STAR TOURS: ONE OF ROB'S FAVORITE RIDES - I (Rob) loved the first 3 Star Wars movies (the last three, not so much), and I was glad to see the "Star Tours" ride. One thing that made it more fun was that Paul Rubens (aka Pee Wee Herman) did the voice of the robot pilot! Thanks to You Tube, you can experience the fun of it yourself:


TOM HATES WAITING IN LINE! - Most people hate waiting in line, and here's Tom with his "grumpy face" (he was posing for the camera) and Rob contemplating how he can obtain a cup of Dunkin' Donuts coffee (even though its not served in the park and they don't have a rental car) while waiting to get into the Disney Hollywood Studio backlot tour. Notice Kermit the Frog's face on the building behind us. We loved the Muppets in 3-D show.



LIVE FROM NEW YORK (BACKDROP) IT'S JEFF! - This is Jeff in front of the New York backdrop on the Disney Hollywood Studios backlot. I'm not sure if he has a crick in his neck or if he's checking out a cute guy walking by... because his head is turned to the side. I think we'd opt for the "cute guy walking by" excuse as it's more logical.
