I'm so glad you guys had such good luck with the pick a pearl experience. I have been on the fence about this one, but I am thinking I might try it the next trip.
I do NOTcheck in online. I always put in requests
We like poolside, 1st floor and preferred. But thats just us. Some don't like it because it's noisier.
Great minds think alike. At POP, we always request building 5, 1st floor, facing the pool.
I like it when great minds come together! I think I use your two requests as mine since those seem to be your favorites!

Katie got her carriage pearl cage for our last trip. Anybody have a pearl cage they really like that we could get for our next trip?

Yay for finally doing Pick A Pearl! It was hard for me to understand what the ladies were saying too and had to listen really closely. I bet Claire was super proud that her pearl was bigger than your's.
I know exactly what you mean about the over the top excitement the ladies doing pick a pearl show! I've never done it, but have to chuckle when I'm walking around the store and catch some of their act. I know it makes it fun for the people doing PAP, but I'm sure they must get tired of being so stinkin' cheery
Glad Claire got the bigger and better pearl
Thanks, I'm not going to do online check in, because if I'm going hold up a line, I'd feel better doing it at the regular counter
If I faxed a request, do you think that would work?

I"m honored.
I think the only down side would be the noise during the day...... but we're never THERE during the day, so it's all good! And at the end of a long day when my feet are just SCREAMING in agony...... it's so nice to have the room right there.
Congrats on the pearls. We did Pick a Pearl on our last trip. Madi had twins. She was so excited. I ordered the same carriages you did. They are great.
What 'country' is Rapunzel's tower in?
weird

Well then I guess i have a great mind. We like to be on the ground floor near the pool. I don't mind the noise since we're usually the ones making the noise!
The story of Rapunzel is German. I have a lot of German ancestors on my mom's side and my grandma, who had tons of nicknacks from Germany and could speak fluent German, told us the story of Rapunzel. My grandma has a porcelain tower with Rapunzel leaning out the window that her mother had given her. It was really old and was brought over from Germany.
Awesome Epcot photos, Jen.
I really like the one of Claire with the Mickey and Minnie toparies.

I think it was between Italy and Germany. I have no clue why it was there. I kind of took it as the movie was more of an Old England location...but what do I know.
I think it was only there for Flower and Graden festival. I'm pretty sure I noticed it was gone this Aug.
I don't remember it being there when we visited in December, but I would guess Germany since the story of Rapunzel came from Germany. I agree that the movie doesn't appear to take place in Germany, other than the name Mother Gothel which is from the original story. Maximus definitely isn't a German name.
