When I left off I mentioned a giant Hidden Mickey. Well ok, maybe it isnt really hidden. Its near the water on the walkway connecting Future World and the World Showcase. I bet the people on the monorail were able to snap some beautiful pictures of the mickey from up high. Now that I think of it, I probably shouldve done the same thing too! Oh well next time.
You might have noticed the group of people in the background staring at something. They had two guys making a sand sculpture for Disneys upcoming movie African Cats opening on Earth Day (I believe). I had seen the previews for this one a few weeks ago at the theater at DTD let me go off topic for a few mins - if you have the time to see a movie while on vacation at Disney, you must!! They havent completed the upgraded eat in theaters yet, I hear its supposed to be completed in May, but they have something similar to the Coke Cool Zone at Epcot. You get to choose what soda you want and they have like 106 combinations to select from. We had selected Coke with Orange and it was sooooo good!! This movie looks really adorable, they followed a family of lions and cheetahs. There are lots of Oh how cute! moments. Ok back to the TR.

Check out what these guys did
Isnt that amazing?
So as you enter the World Showcase there is a display of everyones favorite hunny bear Winnie the Pooh and Friends.
Hello Tigger
.
Oh Mr. Rabbbiitttt
.
Winnie the Pooh
and Eyeore and Piglet too! Eeyore and Piglet are in the left side of the picture
At that moment I decided I deserved a nice cool break and I was thirsty, so why not stop in the Cool Zone. Sorry folks, no Beverly photos. I tried it once and that was enough. No need to go back and try to see if I can trick my taste buds into liking it. Yuck. I really wish they would sell some of those drinks because I would love to take some of them home. Heck, Id even send some to my family & friends.
After a few refreshing drinks it was time to get snapping some more. I found our friends Mickey, Minnie, and Pluto again. They were on a picnic how sweet. I love Minnies dress in this topiary, its so pretty.
For some reason they didnt include Donald and Daisy in the picnic scene. :angry: Whats up with that? Is it because they had something in the picnic basket that would offend the ducks?

Donald and Daisy were off to the side of this topiary scene.
Is it me or do you think poor Donald is asking for a hug? Aw Donald if I could hug you, I would.
The always pretty Daisy
Guess what guys, I finally made it to the front entrance now!! Dont worry, this TR isnt over because I have saved the best photos for last. Greeting everyone at the main entrance of Epcot was Buzz and Woody. As you can imagine the photo pass photographers were busy taking pictures because everyone was stopping there to get their photos taken with Buzz & Woody.
I find it interesting that they made the shapes for their eyes but didnt fill them in with flowers. I find it really odd when they do this.
Coming up the best part of the F& G show. I promise these photos are BEAUTIFUL!
