May 2009 WDW Meet. . .

sounds crazy but I almost don't want the big trip with my DD to get here because I am worried I am going to be super depressed after it's all over.

Hey everyone,

Just a few comments for this fine afternoon.


1. As far as the goats comment.... I've heard more jokes with sheep that goats. I would repeat one here, but it's a family board.

2. list for drinking about Epcot. Instead of a list with every drink in every country, why not get a passport with each country and it's specific drink you want. Then when you can get your drink passport puched after each drink. It'd make a cool souviner.

3. Something funny from work - I am a librarian so I often get interesting reference questions. A co-worker just called and asked me what color a certain male "happy" pill is. As this co-worker like to draw cartoons, I'm afraid of her latest installment.

I just had to share.

Anyway, three weeks and I'll be in Epcot sipping a yummy slushie (grey goose of course).

I think Sake in Japan is a must for all the Dis'ers who embark on the Quest!

I'm all for the Quest but I have to pass on the Sake. I've tried it and I didn't care for it.

Perhaps a different kind of Sake?? Do you remember what you tried last time?... they have lots of different kinds of Sake in Japan... cold, hot, sweet, strong.... and they all taste very different... it's a learning experiment!

I had it at someone's going away party so I'm not sure what kind it was.

It was warm and it was dry and not sweet. I could probably drink a sweet sake.

I'll probably have Sake at Kimonos on Sunday for the sushi lunch. Good stuff.

I agree there are many different types with very different strengths and flavors. Do they do a sake flight in Japan?

The luggage tags are missing and my arrival info is blank...so have an email in to my Small World TA to find out what happened. But still nice to get an envelope from Disney in the mail.

It's beautiful here in MI too!! It's going to be close to (if not over) 80 degrees today!! But somebody should have told the building attendant - they still have the heat on and its sweltering in here

Mother's Day coupon...I have some gift cards so I think now is the perfect time to get myself a Coach treat I'll give it to my DD and tell her to wrap it up for me for Mother's Day. I already gave her cash in Hallmark the other day because she wanted to buy me a Mother's Day card. So I left her alone while she picked out and paid for a card

Aww that is so sweet!!

I bought a real nice Coach Carry on duffle bag during our Christmas trip in Dec 2007 at the Coach outlet off I-4. The lines were crazy but they had some goods deals. I wish I could have found a purse I liked.

ooh nice. I hit the Coach outlet near WDW when I was there last February but didn't find anything that grabbed me. Doubt I'll make it over there in May.

Here's my problem with sake (if you consider it a problem)...the more I try and get a taste for it the more I like the different types, I don't have a favorite. Not crazy about the milky, sweet ones but otherwise I really enjoy doing flights because I like getting to do a sampling of different ones.

BTW you are not supposed to drink it hot...at least that is what I determined in Tokyo when they would look at me like I was crazy...no hot...only cold. Sorry...dumb American here coming into your country thinking I know everything...won't happen again.

I was looking at the half-page laminated layout because it can be re-used... passport idea sounds good too but I'll leave that layout for someone else

Hmm, I'm still working on finding my favorite sake, but there are definitely ones that are served hot (I tend to prefer cold ones myself but my dad goes more for the hot sake)

My take on it is that the hot sake is more "traditional" and the cold sake is more "modern", but I'll ask my parents if I get the chance

Just make sure they aren't muttering "Baka na Gaijin" under their breath

yeah I really am clueless as far as the sake hot/cold debate...but I do think I prefer it cold. I definitely am not an expert and hope my post did not come across that way LOL. Are your parents Japanese?
