AGLET – We're Gonna Tour The World Together! Updated 11/9!!!

On a slightly random note, check out what I found at Target last night!!!



Wingnut: Don't you already have Hello Kitty band-aids?

Me: NO. I used them all up.

---

We got slightly-fancied up for our dinner that night, and then decided to head to Epcot, since dinner would require a bus to another resort anyways. The same resort we'd been to that morning, actually.

That's right, our last dinner of the trip was going to be at our favorite from the year before: Jiko!!!

At Epcot, we decided to hang out mostly in Future World.

Almost, not quite:



We'd been stopping in MouseGears pretty much every day by this point (before, to look for the hat; now, just to peruse random souvenirs), and I had been scoping out the t-shirt wall with indecision every time. I finally had it narrowed down to two candidates, and held them both trying to decide for several minutes before Wingnut settled the decision for me:

"Just get both!"

Sounds good to me! :thumbsup2

(Photos taken when we had arrived home. There aren't any couches in MouseGears - at least, that I had seen.)





OH HOW COULD I NOT????

These, I did not buy, but I did feel compelled to take a picture of.



We then went outside and watched the Fountain of Nations for a few minutes.





I think this has to be one of my top favorite places in Disney.





I honestly can't tell where exactly in Future World this was taken. Too many flower arrangements to narrow them down!!!



On our way to the bus stops, we detoured for another spin on Spaceship Earth (doesn't everyone?)





The globe is one of my favorite parts of the ride. It looks a lot less triumphant in photos though.



If you hum the music while looking at the photo, it helps a little.

(Or it just makes your fiance give you strange looks.)

I think these were one of our worst Spaceship Earth photos yet. (And when I say "our," clearly, I mean "my," since Wingnut's always come out wonderful.)

Stupid Judy.

SERIOUSLY, WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING??



At least I got a "good job" from the robot. Thanks, robot. I'm trying here.

These look just like all of the meals we'd had at Disney during this trip. Except replace the salad with beef and buffalo. And cake. And salted butter.



I will admit, I do think conga lines are sorely underrepresented nowadays.



(Here's where I'd type in some conga line music. But I don't even know where to begin with that.)

Okay, now we were really leaving Epcot.

 
I LOVE those band-aids! So cute. I may have to pick some up for our house. And coincidentally, I'm leaving for Target as soon as I can tear myself away from the DIS.

Mousegears should have couches. It's too big!

Love the shirts! They're really cute. And love BF/Fiances/Husbands who know to suggest that you get both! Mine's really good about that too. :goodvibes

That Mickey gummie is kind of creepy. Maybe that's why you took the photo? I've always wondered what makes kids want to eat their favorite characters' heads. And pinatas? "I love Spiderman! Let's knock the crap out of him!" Don't get it.

Great pictures around Epcot! Maybe next trip your head will be connected to your body? Disney's so smart. Gotta keep you coming back! :lmao:
 
I think Mouse Gears is one of my favorite in-park stores; it's big enough that it doesn't get massively crowded. I always get lost in there but it's better than being squished in the Emporium!

And there's Vinylmation trading and retro Epcot shirts ;)

Spaceship Earth is the best. In Disneyland, the end predict-your-future bit is an exhibit in Innoventions. I wish they'd do the same thing in Epcot - move that out somewhere else and put the old ending back in. Everyone wins!
 
Gotta love Spaceship Earth! Is it me or what but when I see the scene with the gal in the computer room I think of the Austin Powers movie scene - "Not you, henchman arbitrarily turning knobs, making it seem like you're doing something.":rotfl2:

And Beaker band aids... now that's too cute! You would have the coolest boo-boo ever! :upsidedow
 


You know, I don't think I've ever given Epcot the time that it deserves - I'm a MK girl at heart but I think I'll spend more time at Epcot during our December trip..

Great update, and congrats!
Is there a Disney wedding in your future? :p
 


You HAVE to get that pin. It is so cute! :thumbsup2

Great update. Your fountain pictures are great and your T's are adorable.

Love the commentary on Space ship Earth. I have never gotten the congo line. Why? :confused3

Looking forward to Jiko. :goodvibes
 
HAHA Those bandaids are awesome!!! We currently have avengers ones!

Those shirts are great!
Now I will be on the lookout for the "paging tom morrow" one!!! LOVE IT :D

I think everyone spends time around that fountain, and takes extra rides on Spaceship Earth ;) I know I do!!!
 
Awesome shirts!! I love the wingnut enables you by suggesting to just get them both!! Thats Awesome!!

The huge Mickey Gummy?!? :confused3 :confused3 So weird!

Your face does always get mutilated on that ride!! I wonder why that is?!?! Glad you had a good future though!!
 
Getting caught up on your last couple of updates, love the Rope Drop Pics, I have never made it to rope drop but I would love to someday.

Yay! :yay: you finally found the Beaker Hat!! I love him, he is too cute!

Can't wait to read the Jiko review!
 
Oh my gosh! I just stumbled upon the "trip report" section of the DIS over the past day or two, and this is amazing. Great combo of food reviews and general trip updates! Artist Point looks fantastic - it's my favorite Disney restaurant, and your review has me missing it dearly. Plus, now I have Boma on my list for breakfast. I'm not a huge fan of goat cheese, but for those eggs I could make an exception.

And congratulations on the engagement!!! :goodvibes
 
We then went outside and watched the Fountain of Nations for a few minutes.

I think this has to be one of my top favorite places in Disney.


I agree. There is something special about this spot.

And as for the bandaids, you can never have too many fun bandaids. :goodvibes
 
Awww, I love those Band Aids! I've had the Hello Kitty ones, and I almost lost my mind the other day when I saw Phineas and Ferb Band Aids...we're going grocery shopping later, and I know those are going to end up in my cart somehow...:rolleyes1

Yay Epcot! :banana: I love both of the shirts you bought! I love Mousegear because they have so much Epcot stuff, I always want to buy something, but I never know what to get! :eek:

Haha, our pictures always come out weird on SE too! Whenever I wear my Minnie ears, they end up getting cut off, but only partially, so I look like I have these tiny pigtails on the top of my head! :rotfl2:

Ahhh, the Fountain of Nations! One of my favorite Epcot places too! :cool1:
 
HAHAHA I love those bandaids! I currently have the Disney princess bandaids myself... what can I say?

MouseGear is SUCH an awesome store. Those shirts are both great! I feel like that was very good advice from Wingnut. Hey, if you can't decide, both will be fine. :thumbsup2

That fountain really is the best. It's so beautiful and peaceful and just perfect.

Can't wait to hear about Jiko! :yay:
 
love the epcot t-shirts and the Mickey Gummy I want one!
 
Now I see why you said "yes" to Wingnut despite him not liking dole whips -- he said "why don't you just get both shirts". Big points earned, right there. ;)

Hahaha so do I! I think they are a medicine cabinet necessity, personally! :thumbsup2

Mousegears is HUGE!!! I'd love some couches. ::yes::

Thanks!!! Hahaha he's always been a very good decision-maker like that!

Isn't it creepy? Even just creepy in the amount of corn syrup needed to make that treat! :rotfl: Yeah, I never understood pinatas either!

Hahaha one of these days, I hope!!!

Mousegears is one of my favorites too! I especially love all of the Epcot merchandise!

That used to be in Innoventions, when the ride had the old ending, I thought! That would be a good compromise though! I miss the old ending.

Gotta love Spaceship Earth! Is it me or what but when I see the scene with the gal in the computer room I think of the Austin Powers movie scene - "Not you, henchman arbitrarily turning knobs, making it seem like you're doing something.":rotfl2:

:lmao::lmao::lmao: YES!!! I always think of that scene too!!!

Hahaha I am ready for my next paper cut!

I gotta ask you this, Stringbean. Has Wingnut ever been "that guy" at the Laugh Floor?

No, he hasn't! I'm pretty sure that while he loves the show, he'd hate being a part of it! (Too much attention!) :laughing:

You know, I don't think I've ever given Epcot the time that it deserves - I'm a MK girl at heart but I think I'll spend more time at Epcot during our December trip..

Great update, and congrats!
Is there a Disney wedding in your future? :p

Awww I love Epcot! I love the MK too, but Epcot is definitely my favorite! It's a great park.

Thanks!!! :goodvibes

Looking forward to your Jiko review !!! We have an ADR there in November.

Awesome!! I hope you guys enjoy it!!! :goodvibes
 
You HAVE to get that pin. It is so cute! :thumbsup2

Great update. Your fountain pictures are great and your T's are adorable.

Love the commentary on Space ship Earth. I have never gotten the congo line. Why? :confused3

Looking forward to Jiko. :goodvibes

I already looked online for it!! Definitely next time we are there I will take a look for it! :thumbsup2

Thanks!! I always tend to pick the same answers, so my storylines usually end with a conga line! I'm not sure why, exactly! :rotfl:

HAHA Those bandaids are awesome!!! We currently have avengers ones!

Those shirts are great!
Now I will be on the lookout for the "paging tom morrow" one!!! LOVE IT :D

I think everyone spends time around that fountain, and takes extra rides on Spaceship Earth ;) I know I do!!!

Avengers bandaids sound awesome!!!

Thanks!! I saw the Tom Morrow one in a bunch of places, actually!

How could you not, really? Those are some of the best places to just relish being in Disney!

Awesome shirts!! I love the wingnut enables you by suggesting to just get them both!! Thats Awesome!!

The huge Mickey Gummy?!? :confused3 :confused3 So weird!

Your face does always get mutilated on that ride!! I wonder why that is?!?! Glad you had a good future though!!

Hahahaha he's great shopping accompaniment! :thumbsup2

Isn't it a bit excessive? I could never eat that much gummy!!

Hahaha I don't know!!! My pictures used to come out better but lately they've been going downhill! :rotfl:

1.) My kids have an obsession with Band-aids. And now I might, as well.

2.) I WANT THAT EPCOT SHIRT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3). The Conga is awesome. People in my great state obviously know this and are so cool.

Maybe not.:confused3

Oh, I always want cute bandaids! What's the point of just a boring, plain one??

They actually had a bunch of awesome Epcot shirts!!! They were really cool!

Hahaha that video is fantastic!!! :cool1::cool1::cool1: (my attempt at a smiley conga line!)

Getting caught up on your last couple of updates, love the Rope Drop Pics, I have never made it to rope drop but I would love to someday.

Yay! :yay: you finally found the Beaker Hat!! I love him, he is too cute!

Can't wait to read the Jiko review!

We love making it to Rope Drop! The crowds then are MUCH more manageable!

I was SO thrilled to finally find it!!! He is awesome!
