Today we go to EPCOT. We get there at 8:30 am. By this day our feet hurt, but we are destined to keep on moving. We go into the gift shop and I purchase a mini snow globe that has the Spaceship Earth and mini Mickey's of the different countries at Epcot circled at the bottom. We wait to get in and they check our bags. As we head in I had to take a pic.
A pic of the F&W
We head to the right and it's roped off, By this time I have my AK, DTD, and Epcot bday pins on. Everyone is wishing me a happy bday.
The area is roped off. Different CM's come down from different attractions. They ask the crowd how many of them will be going to MS. It sounded like only 3 people said yes. They ask about TT and sounded like 10 people said yes. Then they ask about Soarin. All said woohoo. Well then the character bus comes to help open Epcot.
I am feeling really good at this point.
We head right to Soarin and get a fast pass for it. Got right in. This is so amazing. Do not miss this.
After we rode it I had to get a pic.
Thank you Soarin
Of course you can't go to Epcot with a pic of Spaceship Earth.
We then road the Land. We love this ride. If you haven't ridden this yet, give it a try.
Get your Mickey pumpkins.
After that we went to HISTA. DW does not like the pre show.
After this we went to WS. We love WS. Of course we had to get some Fish and Chips. As I was getting the food, a CM pulled me over and asked if I was going to watch Illuminations. I said yes and asked for my name. I told him and he said because it was my bday, he was going to let me in the special area. Keep in mind I had the buttons. The special area is to the left of the Fish and Chips. I said thank you and told DW she said that was awsome. We walked around and DW needed a break. She took the bus back and I stayed. I rode SE. Ahhh the fun times. For lunch we tried Morroco. This was so yummy and if you have the dining plan. Yummy. I had lamb and they started playing Happy Bday to me. They brought out my desert with a candle. They said they don't get a chance to celebrate many bdays. SO if you have a bday, try this restruant. Don't be afraid to try new things. OH that morning I rode MS. DW swears not to ever ride this again. We did ride TT. It was her first time and she loved it. As she was taking a break I rode MS and TT again. Gotta love the single ride lines. How I keep being the engineer every time is beyond me. LoL
Hello monorail again
I called DW and she met me back at Epcot. We did Soarin again. Great again. We got to our special section for Illuminations, but before that, DW got some desert from France and I had to get some crepes. Yummy. This was the best view for Illuminations. Thank you again. We left and went back to POFQ. I had to put my feet in the hot tub. That became my new best friend.

10-27-05 (KTTKT little facts) FYI.
We get up and while DW was getting ready, I head to my new best friend. Feel good to go. We have ADR's for Chef Mickey's. We get there and we got in early. I requested to have our table, and the cm misunderstood me as we got the one to the left. Why you ask about our table. Well when we went there for our Disneymoon in APril we got this table. Right next to the ketchin, 2nd to the right. In December of 04 we got the same table, so I was hoping this time to get the same table. Oh well. The food is great. I again got another place mat and another cup cake. Luckily those place mats are easy to wash...Well since we drove we headed to the MK as we had our ressies for KTTKT. Um this was the first time we drove to MK. I will from now on take the bus to the MK. Keep in mind our feet and legs really hurt. But hey we are at Disney. We barley make it and check in for our tour. Ask what we want for lunch and get our bottle water. Our tour guide was great. His name was Mark. If you get a chance and you get him as your guide. You will not be dissapointed.
We learned alot about this tour. We learned that Walt wanted it to be like the movies. So when you enter under the train station, what do you see. Upcoming attractions and what do you see when you pass under.
Popcorn.
The names on the windows are the opening credits and as you leave, they will become the closing credits.
While on this tour, a CM comes by and excuses her self and said that there will be about 250 people rushing to where we are. WHy to get some pins. He said thank you and we all laughed. I wonder what pins they were. I can't go into any more detail about the tour. We took a Disney oath, but I will not be afraid to answer any yes or no questions. Per DW
After the tour we decide to leave and go back to the resort. DW take a nap and I rent a boat. The ones at POR/POFQ are not as fast as they are at WL, but hey I am on a boat.
We get ready and DW says she has a surprise for me and to close my eyes. DW made us MNSSHP tshirts. Woohoo. We get to MK to go to ADR at LTT. When I made this ADR the CM on the phone asked if anyone was celebrating a bday. I said I was and he said they could have a small cake for us and a card. i said sure. Well when we get to LTT we ate our great mean and it was yummy. We left. I thank DIsney for not remembering the cake, cause we were way to stuffed to eat it. We headed to Frontier Land as that was where everyone was headed to for the party. It was great. You know the bridge that is across from the castle. That was where we were watching the parade.
The ghosts from the MNSSHP. They were great
Another pic from the parade.
After the parade, which by the way they handed out a ton of candy. We sat down by the castle next to the bridge to watch Hallowishes. This was so cool. Too bad there was tree blocking our view of some of the fireworks. After that we rode some rides. Just to note that after the parade and Hallowishes, people will rush to the HM. We rode IASW.
Much brighter than I remember. We stayed all the way until Midnight. It was a great night.
Part 9 coming soon...
