Hmm, not sure how I missed your Christmas eve update...anyway
GASP! DR. FACILIER!!! That's amazing! I had no idea he was in the parks! And I love that Gaston was out too. That's my hubbby's favorite villian. In fact, his DIS member name is Gaston something...can't remember he only posted like 3 times
Glad to hear he liked Soarin'. I completely understand what you mean by relaxing. The sights and smells of the ride is so comforting and it gives you a break from all the rushing about in the park. It's a good breather ride.
Mmm, the tuna sensation looks SENSATIONAL!....bear with me, i'm tired
Dr. Facilier was really spooky in person, loved him!! I think he is only out during MNSSHP...not sure though. Gaston is hilarious in person...Tim and I actually met through the disboards but he mostly lurks and doesn't post
The music and the smells on Soarin' just make me smile! The tuna sensation IS sensational
I LOVE Tim's Beverly face!!
He looks like "why did you make me do this, Shannon?"!!!
All of your pictures are fantastic! I guess you and I are both crazy-- no matter how late we get back we always get up for rope drop the next morning.
It looks like you had a great time!
That's usually what he is saying
We were so determined to see everything possible during that trip...later in the week we threw in the towel we were exhausted!!
I'm glad that you're introducing Tim to EPCOT the right way... Soarin', Test Track, Beverly!
I'd be exhausted after that first day. I'd definitely still make myself get up and be at rope drop but I'd be tired. I hope it doesn't catch up with you later in the week.
I can't wait to read about your meal at the cellar.
I know I really hit him with the good stuff right away that morning!! I don't know why but I tried Beverly again too..ick!!
It really caught up with us later in the week...but the crowds grew as the week went on, so it was a good decision to do all the big stuff first thing in the trip
The front row on Test Track is the best. Though I was kind of disappointed that they took away the brick wall (I think? I seem to remember a brick wall and it wasn't there when we rode).
We didn't do Club Cool; we've gone to the Coke place in Atlanta and have heard that Club Cool doesn't really compare at all. Is there other things in there besides the soda machines? Maybe I'll just save it for a Food and Wine trip to truly get the international snack experience
Hmm I dont know about a brick wall...
My best friend from college lives down in Atlanta...we were near the Coke place and I have seen the outside, but we didnt go in it. In Club Cool there is the soda machines and merchandise...but hey its free soda
Oh my....I am
over the expression on Tim's face after tasting the Beverly.
What a great update.
And, as we have a busy weekend, I wanted to wish you a
He hated that Beverly...and I loved the reaction
He took a whole cup full too and drank it all at once..silly guy!!
Hope you guys had a wonderful New Years!!
They take the Test Track picture at such a weird place in the ride, it's too bad they don't take it when you're racing around the track! Everyone always looks bored in those pics!
So Tim didn't like the Beverly?
Glad he tried it for you, even knowing it wouldn't be good!
Ahhh, I miss the Food and Wine festival! I wish I could go for 2 weeks, just to eat everything at those booths!
I wish they took it when you first go outside...at least you would get an interesting reaction!
He expected not to like it, i dont think he realized how bad it truly is until he drank it
I LOVE the food and wine festival, I have a hard time touring EPCOT without it!!
Aaahh, Tim's expression over the Beverly is priceless! He just has this "what the...." face.
It sounds nuts...staying up late then waking up ridiculously early, but I completely understand because Alex and I do the same thing.
You can sleep later...when you're not at WDW!
Those pork sliders from Hawaii sound sooo good. I keep kicking myself for not trying one.
He was so mad I didn't warn him more...he knew it was going to be bad, but he took a big gulp of it!
We go to bed so early at home, it was hard staying up late, but we did it!
The pork sliders were my favorite from the whole thing...we went back for more later!
We hope you have a wonderful weekend!!
Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite movies as well and I love Gastons song in it! It sounds like you guys had a great time at the party. I can't wait to go for the first time next fall.
but he still was a good sport and tried it
