At EPCOT for a special breakfast. Then it's off to race packet pickup at the WWoS ToT fitness expo. After a few Food & Wine booths of course.

Hearing the Soarin' background loop walking through Future Workd is simply awesome!

Food & Wine

This is the first year I've ever seen World Showcase full of people before the booths opened on opening day. It's quite crowded.

The line at the Canada booth before its even open.

How much was the mini F&W tray/drink holder?

I've got something similar from last year's Swolphin Food Fest. Maybe I should bring those this year.

$4.95. I remember the ones from the F&W Classic. They were recyclable if memory serves me.

Crazy, busy day yesterday! Here are some pics throughout the day.

Ran the 5K in the morning.

Stopped to take a photo at one of the many character and set stops.

Attended a Moms Panel luncheon in the afternoon at the California Grill. This event was incredible.

Chip & Dale were there all dressed in their best.

The food was abundant and delicious.

Went back to my room to sleep before the race.

Then headed to Hollywood Studios for the Tower of Terror 10-Miler.
It was a spooky night under a full moon.

But runners were having fun.

The DJ kept guests entertained.

After the race I rode the Tower of Terror at the post race party.

It was a very hot and humid night, but in the end the Tower was no match for runners.

Phew! What a day!

I hope there's more coming!


So the photo below made me think of Before the race and After the race-bad of me I know. I will be doing some Disney runs for the first time beginning next year, at least the 5K runs. Can't wait!

Headed to EPCOTand decided to spend some time at Tutto Gusto.

The food is incredibly fresh here. It's not like the Italian back home where I grew up, but it's good.

Had a tomato and mozzarella sandwich with pesto sauce and a salad wedge. Excellent!

 

[OKW Lover]

Love the cheeses and salametti there. Not to mention the wine!

Just thinking....Tomorrow starts Disney's new fiscal year (Oct 1st). I wonder if any new, big projects will be announced.
