Getting our first day at the parks under our belt we headed to Epcot after a good night's sleep. We got our fast passes for Soarin' first off and then hung around the land and did the ride there. Then we went to Imagination with Figment. I really wish I caught the figment character for a picture. DH loves him. Is he usually at the character spot?

Soarin' was an excellent ride. Very ingenious-I heard the engineers constructed the model using an erector set. I wish we were able to get on it again in the day, but we didn't. I really liked the cafe in the land too.
 
Great update! I don't think Figment meets anymore, that's what I heard. I miss him too. Figzilla or not. He was cute! Love your pics of the Epcot ball. One of these days I'm gonna check out the CS in the Land. I've read a lot of good stuff about it. What did you have? There's a lot to choose from there, huh?
 

What great updates!!!! I love the caricature picture!! Too cute!!
 
Hey I tried to send you an add on myspace and it said the name was wrong?
 
So DD4's birthday is June 14th. My thoughts for our next trip would be to go and celebrate at WDW around then. What are some ideas about the crowds? And what does everyone think about the time between June 6-13? I'm very spoiled having had low crowds this past trip.
 
great update and pics.

your camera takes amazing photos.

I will pm u crowd levels according to a website.

I was there the first week of June in '06 and the place was near empty. Fewer crowds then we saw! But a storm was passing through then too. Not sure if it ran people off or not. We went to Universal one day and we were like 5 of maybe 20 people in the entire park! I've never seen it that slow before! That would be a GREAT birthday trip! Order her a chocolate slipper (better than a cake I think) and have a celebration!
 
I'm thinking the first week might be the choice and hey my anniversary is June 3rd-So we'd have a double celebration. This way she wouldn't miss the last days of pre-k either. Is it too crazy to plan another trip in the same year?

I hope not because I plan 3-4 more this year. I need to get some use out of these passes we bought! :goodvibes The first week of June was super slow when we went. Less crowds that this past time.
 
I was really contemplating leaving after lunch. It was the hottest part of the day and Lindsey was really on my nerves. When she gets so tired, nothing makes her happy and the whining is just constant. DH did not like that idea though. We had a 6:35 dinner at Akershus and we were meeting lindsey's grandparents that day. So he wanted to stick it out. His parents had been driving down from NC all morning after visiting with some friends there. They'd be staying with us at the Poly for the next 2 days. So on to the world showcase we went. We started on the left over by Mexico. Mexico is so much fun. The boat ride was just what we needed to cool down. You can see how tired she was in this pic.

I was so glad I remembered the passport I bought. The whole concept of visiting all the countries is so fun.

Lindsey started to catch a second wind thankfully and was really having fun. Of course a lot of it was excitement that grandma & grandpa would be coming any minute.:goodvibes

She was even willing to put on the Mulan dress for China, Yipee!:worship: This was one of the things I was looking forward to-I don't know why-just another chance to wear the dress again.

I really wish I had taken at least one pic in each country. We're going to skip over Germany-we did visit it to get the passport signed though. I have a feeling these pics were right outside of Germany though.

I love these that DH took. On my top 10 of faves

We caught this really fun street performer in Italy. Lindsey even got to throw a ball. We had some clouds and shade as we worked our way around the world. That made for a really nice afternoon.

The young girl he got to help him was hysterical. Her facial expressions were so funny.

Not too long after we got our passport signed in Japan did we see Keith motion that his parents were coming towards us. Lindsey was soooo excited. These pics are on my top 10 list too. Priceless

Hmmmmmm, who is she going run to first?

Sorry Grandpa :confused:

We got a great group shot from a photopass guy, I can't copy or save those from the website though.

We went around to Morocco next.

We were so excited to see Belle outside of France. She was our first princess sighting.

We finished our tour around the world and got our passport signed every where.
We met some friendly faces in the UK.

I was hoping Linds would put on her Mulan dress again for Akershus, but no such luck. We had such a wait for this dinner. I was bummed. I hate making a ressie and still having to wait. The princess dining experience is so worth it for a little girl. You can't beat it. Lindsey was so excited to see all of them. The girls really had the routine down to a science. The food was only okay...I got my year of a million dreams blue drink though:upsidedow
