Move over Dumbo our circus is taking over! Surprise trip adventure!!

[Chicago Mo]

Everyone love beverly... Or I should say Everyone loves to watch people drink the elixir of life!



and Tom again:



I honestly could stand there for hours watching people try this stuff...

As we were walking to the front of the park making our way out Matt's nose decided to burst again. Blood all over.


He went through all my tissues i had with me so we had to get more napkins. Bloody noses are a normality with him some are worse then others. this wasn't one of the mild ones. We stopped and a security guard saw what was going on came right up to us. God love her. She was so sweet we tried to explain this isn't a big deal. Since CM's have the best training, she did what she needed to be done. She came back with a ice pack and TONS of napkins... OK we needed that..
While we waited until the bleed would stop:






I felt bad there was blood all over the ground.. I tried to clean it up but i couldn't i didn't want to walk away with it just there. I asked the security guard if there was any water that i could pour on it to get rid if it. I am sure this isn't something guests want to see on park grounds! In CM fashion she told me they would take care of it... I know i know but i can't... I had tom fill up a water bottle to wash away what was there.

Kids (including Matt) wanted to jump on one more ride. I couldn't let that happen I knew Matt's nose would burst again. Sorry kids.

We did hop into Mousegears one last time for this trip:
We saw this:


It was a memory game! I know she was a new CM probably part of the new seasonals with were just started earlier this day.
Didn't matter the boys were more then happy to play along as Peanut and Tom were somewhere looking at more stuffed animals.
Once they found us Meg was excited to play too!
The each got a little certificate


Makin Memories!!!



It was time for us to say goodbye to Epcot.. Until NEXT TIME




Picture limit.. continuing!

**Looks around** I THINK it is safe to post and you won't miss it!

I got it!!!

If you weren't updating like a mad woman then you would have seen it!!! LOL.

This is true... I do go back and re-read to ensure i do NOT miss anyone!

Stevie the squirrel looks like a riot! It's good that he was just being curious and not a pain. That must have been a fun encounter.

He was really cute. just inquisitive! I am sure he was pillaging for food. he didn't find any with us!

Those treats in Germany look amazing! YUM!

OH MY YUM! everything from there is A-MAZ-ING!

The pictures with Spaceship Earth are AWESOME!!! I love the one of your hubby eating it! What a fun little photo shoot with the kids.

Thanks! we had a bit of fun with it!!! NEXT time i will get better.

That is an amazing last ride on Maelstrom! So nice of those CM's to take your family along and go on the final ride. That is another ride I am going to miss and not see again.

It was a great way to say goodbye to the ride. I will miss it too. I just don't thing Frozen belongs there. I.E. they didn't put the mine train in Germany ya know?!?!

Those Nachos look so tasty! I would eat the crap out of those right now even though its early morning lol.

They were really good too.. I will most defiantly get them again! this time i hope the kids don't eat them all this time.

... AND I STILL GOT MISSED!

No No.. Told ya i always go back to read...

I have really got to work on my timing....

Your fine!!! I will always look backwards!

 

[Chicago Mo]

The updates are great. Sorry about your leg. That is not fun. Your pictures look great though. No Duffy M&G with the duffy dress is sad. Meg still looks adorable in the pictures because the dress is sooo cute. I will have to watch the videos once I am home and not at work. Jacob tried the Beverly and no reaction what so ever. He has a very good poker face. He even got a refill just to prove it wasn't that bad. He wanted us to try it. Nope.

Hi There!!!

Thank you!!! no my leg wasn't fun... I got through it. i wish i knew exactly what was going on so i can avoid it for NEXT TIME.

I don't know what i am going to do about the duffy dress and Meg... I PRAY she will be able to wear it again.
Just adore the Duffy dress on her.

I can say i have NOT tried it. Don't plan too either! HA HA!

 

[KatMark]

What another great photopass shoot! You really lucked out when you found those photographers!

Great videos too...love them.

The reaction of the stranger with the Beverly is priceless.

 

[Chicago Mo]

Walking out we found another PP!!!



I was feeling very yucky, sweaty, hot, and the PP wanted us to kiss?!?! No.


Had to make a memory of Matt's bloody nose...







Goodbye Epcot! Until Next time!!!


At the end of this report i will do a run down of each day!!
Did i post this picture?


Back in our room a couple of video's:




Once back in the room settled showered cleaning up a bit this stated again!



we watched the frozen fireworks, the Duffy nighttime stories and all fell fast asleep!

..

 

[KatMark]

More priceless Beverly videos.

I'm sorry about Matt's bloody nose...poor kid.

What a wonderful way to end the evening...more great photopass pictures (love the one of you and Tom being goofy), and Frozen fireworks. Can't ask for more than that.

 

[Chicago Mo]

What another great photopass shoot! You really lucked out when you found those photographers!

Great videos too...love them.

The reaction of the stranger with the Beverly is priceless.

Thanks!!! we really found the best photographers in Epcot! we did get our money's worth here!!!

Thanks on the video's Tom needs a lot of help with video tapping.

I swear to you i can stand there forever watching people try that stuff!!!

 

[Chicago Mo]

More priceless Beverly videos.

I'm sorry about Matt's bloody nose...poor kid.

What a wonderful way to end the evening...more great photopass pictures (love the one of you and Tom being goofy), and Frozen fireworks. Can't ask for more than that.

Isn't it a riot.. My crazy family will all go back there again and try it once more. they never learn!

Matt's bloody noses are a regular occurrence, we know how to stop them as much as we can. Spoke with the Doc about them He said it's all allergy related. As in humidity will start them, so will dryness! Hopefully he will grow out of them.

It was one great day for sure! the fireworks.. Eh what can i say? simply fantastic.

 

[Pluto0809]

OK, the Vinyl he got was the cave man from Spaceship Earth. Told you I was obsessed with those. I got Sony Eclipse and the Poly Tiki from that set. You'll see those eventually in my December TR.

Those Beverly videos were hilarious! Tom's reaction was exactly what Jim would have done. I rarely venture into there since we have World of Coke here in Atlanta. The tasting room there is twice the size.

Poor Matt and his nose but the picture at the end where you guys pointed it out was funny.

 

[Clarf]

Of course I got behind again because you're a speed demon.

You got such great pics in World Showcase. The PP and the ones you took.

Sorry you never got your Shawarma, but I guess Mexican is good!

How cool you had your last ride on Maelstrom with the CMs and that you got to skip the line!

I love the Beverly pics and videos. LOVE!

Poor Matt with his nose. I'm glad they aren't serious, but it's still stinky.

And your poor legs! Sheesh!

I'm going to update my report right now. You made me feel like a failure.

 

[Dreamer & Wisher]

I love the nighttime Epcot pictures.

Poor Matt and the Bloody nose. I have a tendency to get bloody noses as well, it is a big nuisance. My son Ethan seems to have inherited it as well.

What are the Frozen Fireworks?

I love the picture of the sparkly sidewalks. On our very first trip as a family my daughter who was only 4 tried to pick up the light. She though it was pixie dust. Can't believe that was almost 10 years ago.

 

[Sisa]

Awe, the pick a pearl video is priceless! The CM was certainly was awesome and very enthusiastic! I like how Meg was very careful in her selection.

A blue pearl?! Lucky!!!! It's beautiful! It looks stunning in the carraige.

Oh my gosh, I love the Stevie the Squirrel story! He is so cute and so curious. I love how Matt was more startled than Stevie. Too funny!

Ahhh...that castle is stunning! Don't want to know how much that costs.

I love the Spaceship Earth pics, very cute and clever ideas! I like the heart around it.

Wow, you are on a lucky streak! How amazing to be picked by the CM's and taken in your private boat with them on Maelstrom! Incredible!!!

MMMMM, those nachos and margarita look so yummy! I am drooling.

LOL, love the little ducks video.

Oh no, no pic of Meg with Duffy when she is in her adorable Duffy dress, so so sad

The Beverly videos were hilarious!!! I am dying!

Poor Matt and his nose I feel his pain, I got them so often when I was a kid too. Not fun.

Wow, your evening colored Spaceship Earth photos are gorgeous!

Love the balloon pic with the kids, very cute!

Oh my that carpet is awesome!!!

WOW, you really did have an awesome view of the fireworks!

 

[STLMickeyMom]

Got behind--too much to comment on. Just have to say, in the picture commemorating Matt's bloody nose--I think Zack is having a little too much fun laughing at his brother!

 

[MissMaryQC]

Well, I did it again! Fell WAY behind, looks like I’m spending another work day catching up!

What great PP photographers you guys found! It seems the be a trend in the TR I’m reading, very cool.

I adore the photo booth pictures; your kids are so cute.

Man, I might need to take up photography as a hobby; I want vacation pictures like yours!

The pearls look like such fun! I’ve done it before but not in Epcot. Can’t wait for DD to be able to do this! Meg’s pearl is HUGE! That’ll be so nice for her to have. OOO! A blue pearl! Que pretty!

What is it with the squirrels?!? PrncessA (I think, too many TR). had a similar experience, in Epcot too! Crazy little furballs.

What is Shwarma?! Heat can do wild stuff to the mind!

What a cute pic of your kids and their dad in Germany!

LOL! The pic of Tom eating the ball is too funny!

What an AMAZING last ride on Maelstrom! Talk about

I’m glad they didn’t let you clean the table, that’s super yucky. Those nachos look heavenly!

I love the picture of you and your DH in Norway!

I am glad to say I have never, nor will I ever, taste the Beverley.

Poor Matt, nose bleeds are no fun. I’m glad the security guard was able to lend a hand.

I love the ball all lit up at night, so pretty. LOVE the pics of you all in front of the ball, especially the one of you and Tom.

 

[mickeystoontown]

So, now I know the secret of finding the elusive blue pearl....pick a rock. For years, I've been doing pick a pearl and I always pick an ugly one and I've gotten twins and pretty pearls but never a blue/grey one.

The story of the squirrel had me laughing. He was just trying to find a new toy and make new friends.

You really did luck out with THE best Photopass photographers at Epcot. The pictures turned out fantastic and there are so many.

Speaking of wonderful castmember, how cool that you were given your own private boat on Maelstrom. Way to go CMs!

 

[DMGeurts]

I adored every single photopass photo in Norway... Even the one of you and Tom...

And can I just say it again... The Duffy dress has to be my all time favorite... I think I might NEED a Duffy outfit for my next trip... I am also bummed that you didn't get a photo with Duffy... Next trip!

Yikes about Matt's bloody nose... How nice of security to step in and help out... I love Disney... And yes, they'll take care of it... Continue on with your magical day. Love, love, love Disney and their fantastic CMs!

I also loved the pictures at the end of your night in Epcot... It's been so long since we have done any of the night time shows (ahem... 2008)... I am certain these will be a priority for Allison's graduation trip.

Love you all, miss you all terribly!!!

D~

 

[ach222]

Hey! I'm back and caught up! Love all of the WS pics - looks like you had a great time wandering around. We also did pick a pearl and got one white and one blue, it was a ton of fun! Your pics reminded me that I forgot to swing by Cool Club, guess I have to go back

Great updates as always!

 

[annegirl]

You got a lot of great photopass photos!
Poor guy getting that bloody nose. So great that such a nice CM could help out.
Oh man! Beverly. So gross.. but my mom and Abi liked it. I have no idea.

 

[Chicago Mo]

OK, the Vinyl he got was the cave man from Spaceship Earth. Told you I was obsessed with those. I got Sony Eclipse and the Poly Tiki from that set. You'll see those eventually in my December TR.

AHH HA! I told him about who his Vinyl was and he is now OK with it.. He was calling it Tom for a while there.. NEXT TIME when we go back i know he will be swapping/trading etc!

Those Beverly videos were hilarious! Tom's reaction was exactly what Jim would have done. I rarely venture into there since we have World of Coke here in Atlanta. The tasting room there is twice the size.

aren't they FUN??! I swear to you i can sit there all day adn watch people drink that stuff!
I am sure Tom and Jim would get along famously.

Does your Coke place have Beverly and yucky stuff?!?! I would love to watch it!

Poor Matt and his nose but the picture at the end where you guys pointed it out was funny.

Thanks! Yes poor Matt he did get quite a few nose bleeds this trip!!!

Of course I got behind again because you're a speed demon.

No No.. that is what the weekends are for!

You got such great pics in World Showcase. The PP and the ones you took.

Thanks! Yes we had the BEST PP ever in Epcot!

Sorry you never got your Shawarma, but I guess Mexican is good!

Umm Yeah... I purposely walked past the shawarma quickly...

How cool you had your last ride on Maelstrom with the CMs and that you got to skip the line!

I KNOW!!!! It was def a memory!!!

I love the Beverly pics and videos. LOVE!

OMG it was loads of fun at other's behaves....

Poor Matt with his nose. I'm glad they aren't serious, but it's still stinky.

Na not serious, just a pain i feel bad for him when they happen. we are all so used to these things happening - the picture was a must at the end!

And your poor legs! Sheesh!

Ugh they were killing me!!! but i trucked on!

I'm going to update my report right now. You made me feel like a failure.

No you didn't... I checked this morning..

I love the nighttime Epcot pictures.

thank you!!!

Poor Matt and the Bloody nose. I have a tendency to get bloody noses as well, it is a big nuisance. My son Ethan seems to have inherited it as well.

Do you?!?!? your so right it is a nuisance! that is the perfect word for them
Oh no. I am sorry to hear about Ethan (great name!)
Are yours allergy related as well?

What are the Frozen Fireworks?

WHAAAAAAAAA??? you don't know about the Frozen fireworks are Hollywood studios?
Here click this:
FROZEN FIREWORKS

they are pretty!!!

I love the picture of the sparkly sidewalks. On our very first trip as a family my daughter who was only 4 tried to pick up the light. She though it was pixie dust. Can't believe that was almost 10 years ago.

How adorable is that.. Honestly.. So sweet!!!
Time flys with these kids doesn't it?!?! Kills me!!!

Awe, the pick a pearl video is priceless! The CM was certainly was awesome and very enthusiastic! I like how Meg was very careful in her selection.

I HOPE you do the pick a pearl and get Anna! She was just over the top enthusiastic and it was the best!

A blue pearl?! Lucky!!!! It's beautiful! It looks stunning in the carraige.

Isn't it beautiful? I was staring at it in amazement for a while.. Couldn't believe that popped out.

Oh my gosh, I love the Stevie the Squirrel story! He is so cute and so curious. I love how Matt was more startled than Stevie. Too funny!

It was a highlight of this day! That silly squirrel!!! i hope to see the little squirt again!

Ahhh...that castle is stunning! Don't want to know how much that costs.

$37,500.00.. Yeah... you can buy me one here:
Disney Store Castle

I love the Spaceship Earth pics, very cute and clever ideas! I like the heart around it.

Thanks! can't wait to try this again.. and make it work!

Wow, you are on a lucky streak! How amazing to be picked by the CM's and taken in your private boat with them on Maelstrom! Incredible!!!

When in Disney? IT'S MAGICAL!!!

MMMMM, those nachos and margarita look so yummy! I am drooling.

OMG they are amazing.. I highly recommend!

LOL, love the little ducks video.

Oh no, no pic of Meg with Duffy when she is in her adorable Duffy dress, so so sad

I am still upset about not getting a picture with Meg and Duffy... I wonder how hard it would be to have this amazing dress sized for our "NEXT TIME"??

The Beverly videos were hilarious!!! I am dying!

Aren't they the best? I have tons of video of others trying this drink. i swear to you it's so so fun to watch people. Yes i laugh at people..

Poor Matt and his nose I feel his pain, I got them so often when I was a kid too. Not fun.

do you? yes they are such a pain, i mean walking around with tissue up your nose has to be uncomfortable!
Between my legs, his nose... we kept on going no matter what!

Wow, your evening colored Spaceship Earth photos are gorgeous!

thank you!!! It's fun to photograph!

Love the balloon pic with the kids, very cute!

Thanks! I try to find as many magic shots as we possibly can!

Oh my that carpet is awesome!!!

HA! I had to think about this for a second! Yes the carpet in AoA is cute.. of course the kids had to follow the footprints every single time.

WOW, you really did have an awesome view of the fireworks!

we did. it's was an extra unexpected pixi dust!!!

Got behind--too much to comment on. Just have to say, in the picture commemorating Matt's bloody nose--I think Zack is having a little too much fun laughing at his brother!

I have to agree with you on this... Yet they are very close. In the end they will always be ball busting brothers.

Well, I did it again! Fell WAY behind, looks like I’m spending another work day catching up!

tisk tisk...

What great PP photographers you guys found! It seems the be a trend in the TR I’m reading, very cool.

I have to say we were very lucky with the PP in Epcot. the photographers are amazing people. I believe they have THE BEST job in all of Disney. They are the ones capturing your memories for... well... Forever!

I adore the photo booth pictures; your kids are so cute.

Thank you!!!

Man, I might need to take up photography as a hobby; I want vacation pictures like yours!

You should! you can take these type of pictures with any camera. You need to practice and know which settings will work for whatever your subject is! if you ever have questions please let me know!

The pearls look like such fun! I’ve done it before but not in Epcot. Can’t wait for DD to be able to do this! Meg’s pearl is HUGE! That’ll be so nice for her to have. OOO! A blue pearl! Que pretty!

Ohhh you really need to do this in Japan. with ANNA! your going to have so much fun with your daughter picking out the pearl!!!
Yep the blue pearl is just fantastic.

What is it with the squirrels?!? PrncessA (I think, too many TR). had a similar experience, in Epcot too! Crazy little furballs.

I think your right i read that too! Little squirts are all over and overly friendly!!!

What is Shwarma?! Heat can do wild stuff to the mind!

i honestly have no idea what shwarma is.. I do know it is a food.... maybe...

What a cute pic of your kids and their dad in Germany!

Thank you!!!

LOL! The pic of Tom eating the ball is too funny!

Thanks!!! I had several ideas with this and THAT is what he picked....

What an AMAZING last ride on Maelstrom! Talk about

It was an amazing way to say goodbye to an icon ride. something to be remembered!

I’m glad they didn’t let you clean the table, that’s super yucky. Those nachos look heavenly!

They were heaven on tortilla chips!!! i was more then willing to clean the tables... it was yucky!

I love the picture of you and your DH in Norway!

Thank you!!!! silly us.

I am glad to say I have never, nor will I ever, taste the Beverley.

Me either... If someone tells me something tastes funky I will trust them, won't eat it..

Poor Matt, nose bleeds are no fun. I’m glad the security guard was able to lend a hand.

Yeah. They are really sweet people there!!!

I love the ball all lit up at night, so pretty. LOVE the pics of you all in front of the ball, especially the one of you and Tom.

thanks! we love to be silly.. it just shows our family exactly how we are in the real life! Disney? it's even more over the top!!!

So, now I know the secret of finding the elusive blue pearl....pick a rock.

all my life lessons were from the Peanuts and Muppets...

For years, I've been doing pick a pearl and I always pick an ugly one and I've gotten twins and pretty pearls but never a blue/grey one.

twins!!! how awesome is that! You must have been ecstatic! This is def something we will do over and over!

The story of the squirrel had me laughing. He was just trying to find a new toy and make new friends.

he made friends with us! he was really cute. i hope everyone who goes will meet our little dubbed "stevie" say hi to him from all of us!

You really did luck out with THE best Photopass photographers at Epcot. The pictures turned out fantastic and there are so many.

Speaking of wonderful castmember, how cool that you were given your own private boat on Maelstrom. Way to go CMs!

128 days!!!!


*************************************

Today only took me 3-4 hours to do replies. this place is crazy and keep pulling me away from the DIS!!! How dare they! ya know?
So i get emails daily from the Disney store.
this came today:


I was looking at the picture... I have 98% of this picture!!! only one i am missing is Pinocchio, Peter pan, and i believe that is aurora by Peter pan..
Yes we have all these stuffies. PLUS many many more.
Yes i could be the Disney store advertisement...

The weekend was a bust. I have lost my mind with the girls and volleyball. Not even going to talk about it and PRAY they never play like that again.


Yesterday we all sat and you tubed all things Disney. rides, restaurants, AKL, you name it. Then we were going to go through our Disney boxes. Yes i have 2. One which holds our travel things the second holds our memories of Disney.
We never made it to the boxes. too wrapped up in the videos!

Now it's noon i would love to try to get an update done. Not going to be possible today. I hope for tomorrow!

Have a Great day everyone! i again thank each of you for staying aboard and reading along!!!

 

[Chicago Mo]

Great updates as always!

OHHHHHHHHHHHH you started a Report!!! Going there now!

You got a lot of great photopass photos!
Poor guy getting that bloody nose. So great that such a nice CM could help out.
Oh man! Beverly. So gross.. but my mom and Abi liked it. I have no idea.

I will trust everyone and saying it is icky. I won't try it... YES i was amazed some people DID LIKE IT! blah.. no thanks!

Cm's are amazing people!!!

Bloody noses.. i really should have used this in the title of the report!
