So I was mighty cheesed last night because I had a new posting all typed out for my Day 3 and when I hit the button it went to a screen that said the sight was updating for maintenance

My post?

Gone.

So lets see how much I can remember... again.
By the way, I stopped by Home Depot this morning and picked up my lime green mickey heads! Im such a nerd, I was giggling walking out of the store!
Well I wasn't really expecting a whole lot of tips, etc for Animal Kingdom, but the pictures looked good! Well probably end up with the half day and take it easy getting ready for our next day which is
..
Day 3 !!
at Epcot! Not a favorite of my DH in our first two trips but I think the last trip we were winning him over. It is my DS13 favorite park although he cant pinpoint why. So no plans for breakfast, probably will grab something in the Pop food court, and then well head on over.
Favorite attractions: Soarin, Test Track and Mission: Space. I personally dont like Mission: Space too much, I get motion sickness on the easy version!

We also like the Norway boat ride, the Nemo clamobiles and Turtle Talk with Crush. On our last trip, Demetri was tall enough to go on the big boy rides and each time he rode one for the first time, we would take a picture of him cheering Im a big boy!
We also did for the first time on our last trip the Reimagined Spaceship Earth inside the golf ball thingy. It was just OK for me but my DS13 really enjoyed it. The pics at the end were fun too
he was sitting by himself in the car so his turned out pretty good. Mine sucked and Im not posting it
Rides/things weve never been on or done and want to check out:
Kim Possible World Showcase Adventure when we tested this in 2006 it was a blast!

Honey I Shrunk the Audience we havent been back since our first trip so it should be like new again!

The Three Caballeros boat ride in Mexico weve tried a few times to do this but for whatever reason, it just never worked out
well make sure this time!
A boat ride in the waters in the middle of World Showcase I dont know the official name for this but this time were going to do it!
Club Cool never knew it was there until about two months ago A definite!
O Canada Can you believe weve never been in the Canada Pavilion?

Every year we walk past it and say, Eh? What could be in it that we havent already seen

? Yeah, were seeing it this time.
Our late lunch plans today are me and the boys at Teppan Edo. This is a new place for us and this is a place that I cannot see my daughter having remotely any fun at and so my DH volunteered to give her some extra rounds of Soarin and take her to Mickey Ds while were there. Anyone have reviews for Teppan Edo?
Again, Epcot has long hours until midnight this day so we will be leisure-ish and stroll-ish. I want to check out the pastry shop in France and watch the Garden Grill rotate

and wander through the shops and visit Mary Poppins and Alice and Snow White with Dopey and Mulan with Mushu and I will be taking so many pictures my camera is going to request a day off!
Ill share my Conductor of the Day story. Anyone recently involved in a pin trading conversation on MinnieNurses PTR can skip to the secrets to share (but not you Jordan, you need another dose of temptation

) Demetri loves the train set in Germany and last year we were visiting it but the trains were not yet moving. A CM approached Demetri and asked him if he wanted to be the Conductor of the Day. He was very excited to blow the magic whistle that would make the trains move and he received a Year of a Million Dreams Tinkerbell pin

a COTD certificate and got to keep the whistle.
Oh, and my secrets to share for Epcot that I will be checking out
the temple in China is acoustically perfect if you stand exactly in the middle of the room, your voice will echo back to you. You can purchase a fan, around 4 dollars and they will personalize it for free, they write the name in Chinese.

If you start flipping all of the switches and turning all the dials on Mission: Space, Lt. Dan comes over your speaker and tells you not to touch them.
