I know what you mean about the FREEZING temps slowing you down at Disney... we had some chilly weather during the Spectrum Mom's trip!

GeminiAngel · 02-02-2011, 08:58 PM

You're crazy woman!! A frozen drink, on a frozen night!

jenseib · 02-02-2011, 09:37 PM

What a fun evening. Too bad it was cold. We had an evening that was bitter cold in 2007. I was wearing my winter coat that night.

Disneyland_Mama · 02-02-2011, 11:01 PM

Great update, Tracy! Tutto is hands down a family favorite and MUST DO every trip! I've yet to meet a server who wasn't warm and friendly and GORGEOUS!

I'm so excited to visit all the storytellers and OMG, can't wait to check out Karamel Kuche!

Something about your last installment really bothered me....

I knew I would catch up because he had forgotten about the metal gates and I would have to help him get through, not like anyone around him would be nice enough to hold it open for him

I'm sorry for that.

After having to do a trip with my Mom in an ECV (temporarily), and realizing just how difficult it is, we really go out of the way to assist anyone who could use a little extra assistance. I wish everyone could experience what it's like for a day. I bet it would change a lot of attitudes - I know it changed mine.

Love your updates!! I want so badly to go to WDW during Christmas so that I can see all of the storytellers at Epcot!! Can't wait to read about the problems you had with boarding the bus at Epcot, we are going soon and my 12 year old is in a wheelchair, should be interesting. Looking forward to more!!

Why oh why did I not take a picture when I ran into you all?? Not just once... twice!

I love your beautiful castle picture - just gorgeous! All those TnT sightings!

I have to get back over to their TR (though I know the surprise from Facebook I can't wait to hear all about it!) ... I know I'm probably an update or two behind already.

Despite the chilliness, sounds like a fun day at Epcot! Love how you're both crushing on your Tutto server -- your dinners look delicious!!

I am kicking myself for not taking a picture with you, Tammy, and Nebo and Smidgy. I AM A HORRIBLE DIS'ER!! We will definately be going back to Tutto.

Sounds like you guys had a great day at Epcot. We didn't do CaptainEO, I think I forgot it was there

She posted an update tonight!!

We had more than one evening like that. Imagine the rest of our trip was that cold

You will enjoy the storytellers so much. Karamel Kuche smells heavenly.

Thank you for helping people. You are so right I think it would change attitudes if people were in someone's wheels for one day.

Thank you Melissa. The storytellers are amazing. The bus issues happen on Dec. 3rd.

princessjv · 02-03-2011, 08:05 AM

Between you, V & T- I must add Tutto to our next trip! There are just so many places I want to eat at whilst I'm at WDW - What is a girl to do?

Eat, drink and be rolled out of WDW - Happy!

I love the story tellers. It is really a special treat that is added during th holidays!

Hubs got his drink confiscated too. We were heading to the Boardwalk area, on foot, so it was a major bummer!

mom2mek · 02-03-2011, 09:11 AM

Brrr Tracy.....sounds SO cold!! That is too bad about your drink being confiscated....I was not aware of that - I guess I've never made it all the way back to the exit with a drink still unfinished! LOL!

Love the storyteller pics - something I have not had the pleasure of seeing yet.

jcc0621 · 02-03-2011, 09:58 AM

The storytellers sound like they were alot of fun. I really want to take Jimmy once at Christmas time, but I'm scared of the crowds

Too funny about Bill taking off without you

MDF - You got called out, what're you gonna do about it

tazdev3225 · 02-03-2011, 10:09 AM

I loved your day at EPCOT. I got to see all of the story tellers in freezing cold rain in 2009. I know it wasn't just me as my DH who doesn't wear a coat all winter actually bought a sweatshirt.

You are right about people having to experience a day in someone else's wheels. I need an ECV when I go down to DIsney. I am facing double knee replacement surgery one day and have arthritis in my back. I get looks every time I go down. I can't wait to hear about the bus problem. I have one every time I leave EPCOT for some reason.

eandesmom · 02-03-2011, 10:17 AM

I love the image of Bill chasing down TnT!

So sad you had to toss your drink but I guess the alternative could have been a brain freeze from trying to drink it too quickly, which would not have been fun in the cold.

I

Tutto! glad you both loved it as well.

My favorite though? Bill fist bumping the Nutcracker!

Sounds like a wonderful Epcot day, at least until it got cold. Glad you got your drink anyway.

I had no idea you couldn't exit the park with a drink.

Wasn't Captain EO fun? I really enjoyed it - cheesiness and all. I even downloaded to song to my ipod and like to embarrass Sam by dancing along.

Never been to Tutto Italia. After your rave review, I've got to try it. So many places to try and not enough time. It's so hard when you want to try the new places and still visit your old favorites.

Love the pictures of the storytellers. I've yet to see them but really want to.

So, you went into the caramel store and didn't buy anything?? You are good!

Can't wait for more!

All7OfUs · 02-03-2011, 07:42 PM

What a great, adventure-filled update, Tracy!! You got a LOT done, including a fantastic looking meal. And you're right, you server did look like her smile lit up the room!!!

Fun DAY all around!
