Miss America's Outstanding Teen Pageant: Day 1

My first day in Orlando was absolutely amazing. First, almost all of the 2010 Miss America contestants traveled to Seaworld for some promotional photos. After that, we went to Universal Studios, where we were given our VIP passes and met our tour guides. We then toured both Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure, riding rides and eating a delicious lunch at Thunder Falls. I must say that my favorite ride was the new Simpsons ride. While touring Islands of Adventure, our guides informed us that they are in the process of building a new island entirely dedicated to -get ready for this- Harry Potter! It's going to be incredible! From the pathway, we could see the giant replica of Hogwarts, and the island will even feature a functioning Three Broomsticks Pub! I can't wait to come back and see it after the park opens in 2010.

After a day of fun with the other contestants, I had a short break, and then it was off to the MAOT pageant's second night of prelims.

It was certainly a long day, but well worth the exhaustion. I had no idea how much fun spending the day with all of the other women would be. They are such an incredible group!
