Was the last time you were at B&C when we bumped into each other? I had the beef sub then and it was yummy too!

I LOL at the chocolate chip going missing, I would have had to get it out there and then

I love your trip report so far. I can't wait to read the rest. You pictures are great. We are planning on going in June next year but I think we have to bump it up to May so I can see those wonderful flowers.

Yep, that was the last time we were there before this trip, it was also our first time eating there.

Well I did pull my shirt out a bit hoping it would fall out but I wasn't about to go digging.

Thanks for reading and posting! I love to hear that people are enjoying the report.

The flower festival was definitely beautiful. The dates for it change every year so if it is something you are considering keep an eye out for the 2010 dates. I think it typically starts in March and extends to the end of May/beginning of June.

Beaches and Cream is actually at the Beach Club resort. It is really easy to get to from Epcot. Simply walk through Canada and England and instead of turning to go into France keep heading straight. You will find another park entrance/exit there called the International Gateway. The Beach Club is not even a 5 minute walk from there straight ahead.

I left Beaches and Cream that day hobbling in pain from my very sore feet and stuffed full from the delicious lunch. I had completely forgotten about the chocolate chip down the shirt. When it had initially fallen down my shirt during lunch I had sort of pulled the shirt away from my skin a bit hoping that it would fall out the bottom instead of melting in an uncomfortable place....

We made our way back into Epcot, our goal for the day was to see some of the outdoor performances around the pavilions and to see the movie in France as we had not seen it before. There weren't any performances scheduled for about half an hour so we headed towards Morocco to explore a bit.

They had a mini-garden set up between Morocco and France, it smelt wonderful.

It was sweltering out now, ho boy was it hot....

Once again we found the Morocco pavilion pretty much deserted. It seems like nobody ever goes in here.

Mom and I separated to do our own exploring. I wandered further back into the pavilion snapping away.

There was a CM standing outside a set of shops and he waved me in offering to show me how each shop was different, he must have been very bored seeing as there was nobody else back there. I couldn't really understand him very well so I just smiled and nodded. He was talking about how one shop sold bronze, the other was carpets, one pottery etc. He was also asking where I was from etc. He then offered to write my name in Arabic, okay. While writing he pointed to his face where he was breaking out above his lip and asked if a fever caused that. At least that is what I think he asked, his English was kind of hard to understand. I said I wasn't sure but it was possible. He then pointed to me and asked if I had fever too???? At that point I was thinking "Thanks for pointing out my bad skin". At that point Mom wandered in and saved me from the awkward conversation. I still puzzle over what exactly he was trying to say to me. Maybe he was saying that the heat in Florida was bad for the skin? Who knows, I was still miffed that he pointed out my flawed complexion. I am not vain but I sure don't need a blemish to be pointed out!

We started heading towards France and I saw Belle out for pictures so I had to stop for a picture! The line wasn't too long at all.

When I got up to her she admired my "enchanted" necklace and asked if I had met Tink yet and I said that I hadn't. She then told me to pass a message to her when I did. It was "Tag you're it" Okay Belle.... The photopass photographer left at that point, Belle explained to me that their magical device was not working and asked if we had one of our own which of course we did. She also asked me if I had been eating ice cream that day and I told her I had. I wondered to myself, "Why on earth would she ask me that and how did she know" Of course I was still forgetting the chocolate chip....

We posed for our picture and then Mom and I were on our way.

As I put our bag back on I looked down at my skirt to see that my shirt had ridden up a bit and there in plain sight was a big melted chocolate mess on my beautiful white skirt! No!!!! That stupid chocolate chip had been shaken loose earlier when I played with my shirt and must have settled at the top of my skirt and melted while I finished my lunch at Beaches and Cream. So that is why Belle was asking if I had eaten ice cream, she was trying to hint to me about the mess on my skirt without breaking character. You can see it plain as day in the picture.

I hightailed it to the closest bathroom to try and clean it as much as I could. I got most of it off but there was still a faint chocolate stain on the skirt for the rest of the day. Thankfully my shirt was covering it most of the time.

Heading into France we saw another princess out for photos, Princess Aurora, also with a short line.

It was now time to see Serveur Amusant in France. This was one of the outdoor shows that we had wanted to see this day.

I had recorded most of the show but had to delete it as it was hogging up too much space on the memory card and I had to be conservative with the memory space as I still had two weeks of vacation left.

The show was funny, I loved the Chef and his whistle.

After the show we made our way over to see when the next showing of the France movie was and it was starting right then. The CM was still waving people in so we hurried over. When we walked in the theatre was pitch black, we could not see a thing! Mom started feeling her way around trying to find a seat while I stayed still waiting for the movie to start so there would be a little bit of light to see by. Mom meanwhile felt something soft and started patting it, well it turned out to be a guy sitting in the back row of the theatre. I still laugh about Mom getting fresh with a stranger in the dark theatre. The room lit up a bit once the movie started playing and we were able to find seats after Mom apologized to the guy for feeling him up.

After the movie which was fairly mediocre we started to make our way over to England for the World Showcase Players. First we had to stop for a photopass picture!

At first I thought you had chocolate down the front of you or something. I couldn't see the chocolate in the pic with Aurora. You did a good job getting it washed out.

Wonderful pictures of Morocco.

Wonderful pictures of Morocco.

I definitely would have noticed if the chocolate had been somewhere embarrasing.

I tried to keep the shirt pulled over the stain, wasn't always possible. You can see it really well in the Photopass pictures at the end. Thankfully a good scrubbing once back in the room and a proper washing later on remedied the problem and there was no permanent stain.

Hi there Erin!

Be careful trip reports are addictive! I started on these boards just like you, just trying to hold me over till my trip, two and half years and three trips later here I am, still addicted to the Dis and trip reports.

Disney in December, lucky! We went for Christmas way back in 97, I barely remember it and so want to go back again during that time of year.

I'm glad that you are enjoying my report and have had a few laughs thanks to it. Hope that you keep on reading!

Hi again Lessa !!! Good for Beth flirting in the dark sounds like FUN!!!I remember the chocolate stain as you pointed it out to me !! Dang Beth I shoulda gone with you guys !!! Then I too could have had a shot at a stain !!

 

[cmp1111]

Great pictures as always!

I'm sorry about the chocolate! But, it's kind of cute that Belle was trying to help you without breaking character.

Weird about the guy in Morocco, and funny about your mom feeling the guy up in the theatre!

You will find another park entrance/exit there called the International Gateway. The Beach Club is not even a 5 minute walk from there straight ahead.

Sure it is easy to find the Beach Club, but Beach and Cream was really hard to find. We must have went in 5 circles, before we looked at the map outside of the Beach Club and finally found it tucked "outside" by Storm-a-Long Bay.
Sorry for the CM embarassing, for some odd reason it made me laugh/cry.

Don't you know that chocolate stains are the newest fashion fad!

Yeah the Morocco guy was a bit strange.

I bet that guy never thought he would get that much action in a Disney park!

I do remember our first time going it was a bit confusing to find. Best directions I can give once getting there is to enter the building and turn left and just keep following the hallway left until it ends and dumps you at the pool, Beaches and Cream is right there.

The CM didn't really embarass me I just thought the whole encounter was very strange. I'm sure he was just trying to be friendly.

Good morning Rosie, you really missed out on this day, Lessa and I had lots of laughs this day, I think this was the day I gave Lessa many laughs, keep reading!! I did promise her that I would not be boring.

 

[GeminiAngel]

That's what I go to WDW for, feeling up strangers in the dark!
I just knew that chip was going to turn up somewhere. That skirt is really nice.

 

[FauntleroyFAN07]

very funny, before i even read it i saw the little chocolate spot on your skirt, i was thinking that the converastion with the CM in moraco had something to do with the chocolate chip.

you did a pretty good job on getting the chip stain out of your skirt.
