I didn't think it was abig deal, you only choked once!! Update 9/18 final thoughts

It's not one of my favorites but it's on my list of "things I do in order to be a good daughter"

When I left off we were heading out of MK to go to our second park of the day! EPCOT!!! For some reason when we are on vacation we become night owls and hit up every evening EMH the parks had this trip You might wonder why this is odd for my family? Our bed times at home are usually between 9-10 Thank you Disney for park adrenaline!

So we hopped on the monorail to head to the TTC. The monorail was packed!!! I was a little worried about how busy the park would be!

After we switched over to the Epcot monorail I came up with a touring plan for us.I thought we should head to World Showcase first, grab a snack and do whatever else we wanted to then head to Futureworld and hit up anything we wanted to do there then call it a night The race was tomorrow so we needed to get some rest!


Once we got in to the Epcot area I began snapping away on my cell phone

I posted some on Facebook and was very impressed with the photos my phone took this trip!


Once inside I began taking pictures of the Flower and Garden Festival Toy Story Topiaries.

I took this one and sent it to my dad to get him pumped for his trip in two days!

I took this picture for MEK I always love her fountain pics

We then continued on our way but had to stop for more pictures!

I had never taken a picture of this before so I had to cross it off of my to do list!

I think we tried going in but it was closed

Canada home of our DIS friends Queen and Jasmine

I am really upset that I never got to see the movie on this trip so I will have to see it when we go back in August!

Walking through the UK we heard the new band playing so stopped to listen....

A view from where we were sitting

We loved them!!!!!! The music is great and isn't all Beatles which my family has never been a huge fan of. You have to stop and listen to them next time you're in WS! Especially if you love Queen because their version of Bohemian Rhapsody is sooo good!


After the concert they came out in to the square and took pictures with their fans.

While I was telling them how much I loved their set a man came up and asked them what the name of their band was. The drummer said they didn't have one yet because Disney hadn't given them one. I found that surprising because I figured Disney hired bands to play in World Showcase. I guess they just hire musicians and throw them together Whatever they do they did a great job making this band! *They have since been named the English Channel


After our music stop we headed on our way. My mom and I both skipped dessert at the Liberty Tree Tavern and had in our minds what we wanted to eat.

 

[PrincessCaitlin]

My mom decided on one of these babies

It looked and smelled so good! Plus the CMs working at the Funnel Cake stand weren't bad to look at


I had other plans so we continued on our way

The tower was so cute you could even hear Rapunzel inside singing!

This was my destination

Hmm what will I choose?

I chose two of these beauties

Unfortunately they didn't live up to the hype. They weren't bad but weren't the "heaven on the plate" I was expecting. I actually had better strawberries at an unlikely place later in the week I did love the store though and I am a huge fan of caramel and I ended up here again later in the week

Illuminations was going on so we watched a part of it while we enjoyed our snacks. No pictures but it was nice soaking up the atmosphere and enjoying being in Disney.


My mom called my dad and while they were talking I walked through the shops pin trading.


After my mom was done on the phone we headed on to our first ride in Epcot.


The Maelstrom!

I finally found the last hidden mickey I needed to find in the mural!

There was no line and in our boat it was us and two other women. The CM working this ride was a cutie and we checked each other our until the boat left the harbor

I took these pictures at the part where it looks like we are going to go backwards off the cliff. It was really neat because we could see Illuminations going on while we were stuck here!

After our ride through Gnome Country we headed to the other WS ride

The Grand Fiesta tour!


I love this ride! I am a huge Donald fan and no matter how many times we go on it, it never gets old!

It was time to head to FutureWorld.

The first ride we hit up was Test Track! The line was super long so we headed in the Single Rider line! The wait ended up being 15 minutes! While we were in line a 12 year old girl was standing beside us looking frightened. She asked me about the ride and I told her it wasn't bad at all and there was nothing to worry about. That didn't seem to calm her nerves.. My mom told her that if she decided not to ride it to tell one of the CMs and they would take her to the exit. She ended up riding it though! My mom and I were in the same car and both enjoyed our ride. My camera was dead after we got off the ride so I found the Hidden Mickey I was looking for and planned to come back later in the week to take a picture of it.

After TT we headed over to my favorite 3d movie Captain EO!!! I love this movie! I have no idea why but I just love it After being sprayed by Hooter's boogers we were going to head over to Figment and the Land but decided to call it a night. We were both beat and knew tomorrow would be a busy day.

Here are the pins I traded for today

Once we got back to the resort I changed in to my pajamas and went to go plug in my camera to charge. I couldn't find the charger so knowing my mom had packed it I asked her where it was....

Hi All!

I just have to add that I did not eat that whole funnel cake. As yummy as it was I could only eat half ( ok I only let myself eat half and threw the rest away)

 

[CAStevens218]

Sounds like a fun trip so far!

You got some great pins that day!!! I love the Pluto ice cream one...atleast that is what it looks like from here??

 

[emma212010]

Great flower pictures!!

I would love to visit during the Flower Festival, suprisingly that's one time we've never gone! It looks so pretty!!

Looking forward to more!

 

[pkondz]

So, before you chose the two chocolate covered strawberries, were ya thinking, "Maybe one of everything."? Sometimes having a choice can be a terrible burden, no? So you had to leave us with a cliff hanger, huh? Did she pack the charger or didn't she? Tune in later to find out! Thanks for the update!

 

[LilAnn]

Nice tour through the WS! I don't think I have ever gotten anything from the Werther's store. Your pics definitely make me want to try it out though. And I love me some funnel cake. I would have polished the whole thing off (if DD didn't get to it first).

It was a great trip overall we just had some bumps along the way

I was really surprised by the caliber of pins the CMs wore this trip! They all had really good ones and I had no issues trading away the 50 I bought!

It is a Pluto cupcake but it does look like ice cream

You need to visit then! We love that time of year but really what time of year isn't amazing in Disney World

I did want everything I felt the cookies and the carmel apples calling my name. Luckily I knew I could come back and get something else later in the week so I stuck with what I had been wanting to try for months!

I had to throw a cliff hanger in there! I mean what's a good TR without some suspense

Anytime

Than kyou!

You have to try it! Their sweets are so delicious!

My mom really enjoyed it and she almost did but decided that would be way too much food

Cupcake, ice cream, either way its adorable!! We got really into pin trading on our December trip and we can't wait to do more in January!!

 

[Moira222]

I love pin trading! We took almost 70 with us and traded almost all of them----there were some really good ones in the original package from ebay that we just loved.

I just realized that I need to buy a pin binder -- they won't all fit on our lanyards!

I had just seen a picture of the new cupcake pin series on the DIS boards and since I didn't want to spend $30 on the set I decided I would trade for them

Pin trading is so much fun! It is also way cheaper than buying a ton o pins!

Awesome! It is so much fun! I plan on getting a grab bag to trade in August as well!

I have a cork board in my room filled with them and then we have shadow boxes with cork board in them in our living room. It is a fun way to use them and be able to see them all the time

Nice update - sounds like a whirlwind tour of the countries!
How was the UK bank? I hear it's alot harder rock than before.

And did you guys get the Photopass pics on your way out?
A couple of the 4 gals turned out pretty good - Mom will have to post when the Photopass CD comes back.

Thanks!

I really liked them! It isn't really harder rock but it definitely is harder rock than the Beatles. They sing a bunch of different songs like Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band, Talkin Bout My Generation, Bohemian Rhapsody and Hey Jude. I like the variety that they offer.

I don't think we got them on the way out but we got them on the way in. We are still waiting for our CD so once we get it I will post the pics to catch us up.

Epcot looks so nice... never been there during May... Hmmm... Another thing to do on my list.
Love the pictures and pins. DS is looking foward to pin trading. I bought him 50 pins off ebay for trading.

 

[MEK]

Awww.....You took a fountain picture for me! Thank you! I love it! The water is just perfect.

Fun, fun night at Epcot. I heard those strawberry's were not the greatest, which is hard to believe since they look so yummy.

Can you believe I haven't seen Captain EO yet. Not sure why. Oh yeah - I know why - Everytime I passed it I was by myself and it just seems like one of those things you should watch with someone else.

So is tomorrow race day??????

It is just beautiful with all of the flowers! We love it!

Thank you!

Awesome 50 seems like a lot but I went through all of mine I plan on getting 50 more for our August trip!

I had never taken a picture of it before and this trip I was trying out new angles on things and that pic reminded me of something you would take

It was! Yeah I wish they had more carmel on them like dipped in carmel then covered in chocolate. I am making myself hungry

You need to see it! I would go and watch it alone and I might have to in August if I want to see it twice

Yes tomorrow is race day but a lot of drama comes before we set foot on the track

Great pictures! So happy you thought of us while passing thru Canada

My favorite place to buy the chocolate covered strawberries is The Confectioneryand I was planning on buying them in Germany, but now maybe I'll try something else in that store....quite a few items caught my eye
