The cat shots are funny. I love Jen's cute hat! 
Aren't they? Who doesn't know one fat cat like that one?
I love Jen's hat. I bet she has it with her right now.
Lol at seeing that World Showplace sign!
I bet those dancers think that the entire world showcase IS the world showplace.
I can't wait to have some fun at them phone booths!
The phone booths were fun! It was great when the first phone rang. Seriously childish, but fun anyway.
Yay on the character interaction!
That was a GREAT spot for characters. Never even knew it was there.
Great pictures ladies! Ok...the blood orange rita is on the list!! Hey, if I don't like, I'll try a different one!
Exactly! I figure when I go with Denny it will be like getting two ritas at once since we can share.
We will defiinitely be exploring Morocco a little more this next trip...your pictures are gorgeous! Can't wait to enjoy WS again...my fav thing to do at the World!
I will never tire of the World showcase. It was wonderful to be so close. It really feels different when it takes 2 minutes to walk there.
WOW, that was a lot of catching up I had to do!! You girls have been busy!!
We have been updating fools! I was afraid I would be doing all the updates on my own, so I am so happy to have everyone else join in. Love you guys!!!!
You all take fantastic photos, so much fun to enjoy them all- I love photography, too, but I don't have the patience to change lenses, etc, while I'm there too often. You are inspiring me to do that on my next adult visit.
Thank you! I actually didn't change lens much at all. I used the stock lens this time and I am happy I did. It was just fun taking pictures from a different perspective. I really do enjoy taking pictures. Sometimes I don't feel like it, but I know its always worth it to get that extra pix.
A few comments- Mek, I adore that tink bird bath- and I always think the same thing- too hard to lug home. I know, I know, it could be shipped, but who wants to pay for THAT?

Maybe we should order it online-
Isn't that the cutest. And really - who DOES want to pay to ship that home. But looking at that picture makes me wish I owned that right now! I know just where i would put it.
You could NEVER be the F&G lady!!!

Thanks Ellen. I will consider that a compliment. But honestly, I would love one of those jobs where you can ride or walk around and just be generally obnoxious. It would be so good for my alter-ego that I have to suppress!
And the pic of Merry Old England? That's Kara's block!!
Somehow, I think there is a story behind that comment.
Great pictures, MaryEllen. I love the "unsuspecting" one of your traveling pals (and cute hat, Jen).
I hope C is not mad at me for posting the telephone pix. I was supposed to have her sign a waiver first!
Jen's hat was perfect. So darn cute. Too bad I didn't take a close up of it!
I have a friend here on the DIS whose daughter was at Disney for that dancing performance. When I saw her in her dancer attire I could not believe the make-up the girls had on (and how do they keep it on in the heat?).
I think because they walk straight from their tour buses to the venue they are able to keep that makeup on. Funny - most of the groups I heard speaking were talking in Spanish. I was wondering if there were any Americans there.
World Showplace???? What the heck is that all about.
That was just the name for the venue where they held the dance competition. Sorry, I don't think I made that clear enough.
You found my favorite character spot! I ALWAYS go theren to get my picture with Pooh and Tigger (and sometimes Eeyore is there too).
I LOVED that character spot. I plan to be a repeat visitor. I so LOVE Eeyore! He's my favorite!

that is a pretty apt description of many Disney items. Although that is adorable. My mom is a big Tink fan, I know she'd love that!
Glad you like my description! Like I said to Ellen, I totally wish I had that bird bath now. It really was precious is a subtle way.
All of the topiaries look so cute! That must be fun to see, extra Disney ambiance!
It really it. I hope you and Wingnut get a chance to visit during F&G, being that it is your absolute favorite park and all!
Isn't World Showplace the building between Canada and the UK? If that's it, they had the Pixar characters in there on the Pixar Weekend. Apparently, from what I found from a Google search, it's used during Food and Wine as well.
Exactly. It's the picture of that big building that I posted where they held the dance competition. Again, I apologize for not making that clearer.
I do think they use it during F&W for some of the hard ticket events. I'm pretty sure I saw it in one of Lurkyloo's trip reports.
That hat was one great buy! It has gotten a lot of use at the pool and will see a lot of action at Vero next week!!!
I am so glad that hat is getting lots of use. I knew it would be and it looks so great on you!!!!!!
I hope you are having a wonderful time and I am so glad you checked in to our TR. Have tons of fun!!!!!!

BTW found the ring LOL or should I say Anita found the ring. Wasn't my size but with a little help from ring guards I LOVE MY NEW BLING LOL!!!!
I am SOOOOOOO glad, because I know that's exactly the one you wanted. Nothing wrong with a little ring guard action!
T!
Loved your EPCOT pictures MEK so gorgeous!!!! Fabulous update!!!
Thanks Jen! I am really happy with how some of the pix turned out. Ahhhh - the wonders of photo editing!
