Okay, glad you forgive me for that!

Oh heavens!! I was never upset!! It's just a fun little game!! I think there are so many zillions of hats all over the place, it'll be fun to get a ncie collection. We can compare when I get back and see how many we get of the same ones- that would be fun too!

 

[that's nice]

Great update!

I feel like I was walking in your steps..

I've always wondered about Tutto.. if it was any good. Have you heard that they might be putting a pizza restaurant in Italy?

Your BFs Octoberfest beer looks really good. If it wasn't so late I'd drink one right now!

Great pics.. glad you had time to explore and take it all in.

Thanks Tim. I really try to make each update interesting!

I just read about the pizza place earlier today!

Oktoberfest was SO good. You have to try it sometime!!

You don't have to worry about that.. been there, done that!

Great exploration of Epcot. So glad you and Epcot became friends finally! The Oktoberfest beer is great! We love Spaten and they keep switching the kinds they have there. I like regular, Tom like Optimator and Oktoberfest is somewhere in between. On a hot day in Epcot, I'll take either, though!

As always, great pics!

Aww, cool you got to see the candy lady!

 

[LilAnn]

I love the WS! I think everytime I go, I love it more and more. Chefs de France is pretty good, and I think Remy makes an appearance only at lunch. We've only seen the candy landy once, but I have heard she doesn't hand out the candy she makes anymore.

I can't wait to see all the topiaries in person! I think it just makes Epcot even more beautiful!

Love the pictures of the Beauty and the Beast characters. I remember seeing Belle and Beast in 07 but not the others. I love going through the maze of shops in Morocco. We haven't tried Tutto yet but it's on the list for someday. We were lucky and got into Alfredo's before it closed too.

I read before our trip in Feb that the Candy Lady wasn't allowed to give the candy away anymore. Something about food safety. We saw her in Feb and when she was finished she packed the candy animals back up. In 2007 Danielle did get a hummingbird from her and Brent got a white tiger in 2002.

I'm so glad you enjoy your tour through the world. I see new things every time I go and wish I had more time. I'm still trying to catch all the entertainment.

That is the perfect smiley!

Oktoberfest is good! I hope they don't change that one!

It was neat!

Gotcha- Remy is only at lunch. Thanks!

I wonder why she doesn't hand it out anymore.

I can't wait for you to see them!! Think of me when you do.."I remember this from Tinkgurl's TR!"

Beauty and the Beast is my fave!

Wasn't Alfredo's amazing?!

A hummingbird?! I would have loved that one!

Beauty and the Beast is Michelle's favorite too! She wants to be Belle.

Glad you guys are having such a good time in Epcot WS. It looks so relaxing there! Esp by the fish pond in Japan.

The last picture of you in front of Spaceship Earth is awesome. And I just love your bag. I wish I wasn't so stingy with my money so that I would allow myself to buy one. DH is always saying I'm too frugal!

 

[Dancegrl624]

I think Germany is one of our favorite pavillions at Epcot. My DH loves the Becks beer and we always get a delicious soft pretzel. YUM! I love the pics of Morocco. We definately need to spend some more time over there in Sept. The tiles are so pretty! Isn't that store in Japan massive?! Madison loves Hello Kitty, so that's usually all we get to look at while we're there. I really want to Pick a Pearl on our next trip (it's my birthsone).

 

[MarieTheCat24]

Oh my gosh, all of your pics of the World Showcase are making me wish I was there right now. I love what you said about Germany reminding you of a local college bar. For me, all of World Showcase doesn't feel like a theme park. It feels like a gathering of people at a street festival or something. Especially in the evening when the sun is setting.

I'm in love with the Lady and the Tramp topiaries. They are so adorable. Lady's ears look so cool.

And I'm glad you got to explore Morocco a little more. I think it's my favorite pavillion in the WS architecture-wise. It's amazing. And as pretty as it is during the day, it's even more gorgeous at night. I was in awe. The rest of my family had to drag me away, because I was pretty content to never leave. I'm sure the CMs wouldn't have minded if I moved in.

My little guy and I just watched it this past Sunday! It was his first time seeing it. We had to watch it 2 times in a row. haha

Thanks! It is a cool bag. I've even seen that they've added bags for the Disney Cruise Line!

I could not believe how huge/long the shops were in Japan! That would be awesome to get a pearl-especially since it's your birthstone.

I agree, WS doesn't feel like a theme park. I love it in the evening when all the lights are coming on.

Aren't Lady's ears awesome?!

Morocco's architecture is so beautiful to look at!

Since I finally spent a little more time exploring World Showcase this time, I really appreciate the pictures you posted even more! As everyone knows, pictures don't do it justice at all, so when I saw them beforehand on other TR reports, I didn't think much of it. Now that I've seen it, the pictures bring back such great memories! I agree with you that you don't even realize that you're in Epcot. I kept saying that specifically in Morocco!

HAHA, we saw Miyuki too, and I felt like a true DISer! And the funny thing is, she was making a giraffe when we saw her!

 

[creativeamanda]

I absolutely love the World Showcase. It looks like you spent a good amount of time there. The topiaries are absolutely beautiful! I hate I'm missing the Flower and Garden Festival by a couple of weeks!

 

[MeMom]

Strolling through World Showcase at a slow pace and just really taking time to explore and appreciate as much as you can is the right way to do it.

That outdoor kitchen is so nice.

I, too, read that Miyuki is no longer allowed to give the candy away. I was satisfied with just watching, anyway, so it's really no big thing. Maybe it has calmed the 'savage candy beasts' in the crowds who were causing problems, fighting over the candy, etc.

Two weeks from tomorrow morning, we should be walking the same paths you just showed.

We did spend a lot more time than usual there!

We loved that kitchen!

Haha, I can just see it now..people throwing punches just to get some of her candy.

That's so exciting. Think of me when you do!

 

[blabbermouth]

I never saw Miyuki, only heard of her, but it's awesome! the giraffe is so cute. I love all of WS, we definitely spent a lot of time there. Glad you're not creating any awful weather this time!!
