Oh no, no, no. It was quite possibly the best burger I have ever tasted in my entire life. It almost beat the mushroom filet it was that good. Wow. Heaven on a plate.

That burger looks delicious!!

Martin Short is really funny.

Oh wow, a very productive morning I see. Soarin', Test Track, The Seas, Universe of Energy, Living With The Land... wow, and all of it just in time for your Le Cellier lunch. Too bad you had to run into the Brazilians And what is with them on TT? I just want to smack them, why aren't you screaming or doing ANYTHING on TT, I will never understand their strange culture :/

Oooooo... Le Cellier, everything looks so good and that dessert table is so enticing. If only these pictures were like the ones from Willy Wonka where you could reach through the TV Screen, in this case the computer screen, and just grab the deliciously delectable food from here Alright, I must look away, but glad to see you enjoyed your meal.

Can't wait to read more!

We tried to see O Canada on our last trip but something was wrong with the projector - oh well next time! I had someone else tell me how amazing the burger is at Le Cellier. Can I just tell you I've eaten there three times and didn't know the restaurant had different areas named after the provinces. What does DBF think of your idea to fly to FL to get married in Canada?

 

[teekathepony]

O, Canada! My home and native land. I love that pavilion. I love Martin Short too. Lunch at Le Cellier looks amazing! And I agree, the gardens sure would be a beautiful spot for a wedding

Great update, Jen.That burger looks much better than the filet I had last week at LeCellier at dinner.

Love that you got the fastpasses -- always love extra pixie dust.

It was super yummy.

They sure are different. It was just bad FP return timing on our part

That would be AWESOME. They (as in those crazy wacky scientists) need to figure out a way to teleport food.

I guess your mind is more focused on the food than where you're sitting Now you know so make sure you pay attention next time Ummmm DBF does not know about my ideas of marriage in Disney. If I told him he would probably think I'm nuts Oh well, I can dream.

Lunch was soooooo good. I want that burger again. I (dare I say it) almost like it better than the filet I guess I don't have an appreciation for a good steak.

I'm sad to hear you didn't have a good filet at Le Cellier. Live and learn I guess. Although I have had bad risotto there once. It was WAY too salty. Most of the time the food is perfect though.

Hey Rosie! You haven't missed much. I've been a bit tardy lately with an update. Hope to get one up later this week.

Are you implying something? Because it seems like you might be waiting for something?

Hold the phone. Is that a new countdown ticker I see in your signature???

Just giving you a hard time because you said you've been tardy.

Not really....I've had the ticker for about a month or so. The one picture is my Epcot World Showcase panorama I made.

We had originally planned to take an afternoon break after lunch but we thought better to try and walk it off. Stitch's ankle was feeling okay after a lengthy break for lunch so she thought it would be fine....

We started heading counter clockwise towards the UK. I wanted to see the new band "The English Channel" that recently started and luckily, they were already playing once we got there.

They were pretty good actually. Granted it's not all Beatles songs but I like the mix of Classic Rock tunes. I'm a fan of that kind of music deep down inside.

We took some time in the tea shop as well and took note of certain kinds of teas we would pick up later.

If you'd like to know, I only ended up getting the Herbal Unwind. It's very tasty and a nice way to "unwind" after a long day especially now since the weather is starting to get colder.

In Paris, we caught the Impressions de France show. This is another favourite of mine. Almost as good as O' Canada I just love the music used in this show.

We didn't spend much time in Morocco. I showed Stitch the "secret" museum that most people pass by but we still didn't spend too much time. I thought it may be because she wasn't interested but then it occured to me her ankle might be starting to bother her.

Upon leaving Morocco, we bumped into the girl of that British couple we had met earlier at rope drop. We briefly caught up on all the things we had seen and done that day and then continued on our way. Still, they were very nice people to chat with.

Japan. Another country on my bucket list to visit one day. I've become a big Kurosawa samurai movie fan. Seven Samurai? Anyone? Love his movies. He was a fantastic filmmaker, not only for his samurai movies. Look him up sometime, Akira Kirosawa. Moving on.... We spent a while looking around in the store

And looking around the anime museum part

Then we continued on to the American Adventure. Hark, did mine ears deceive me or was the Voices of Liberty singing? I veered inside with Stitch following behind and glory be! The singers were there!

I'm glad I saw them but (and please don't hate me for saying this) it was a teensy bit too patriotic for me. They were fabulous singers, don't get me wrong, but I don't think I'll go out of my way to see them again.

I hadn't really planned to do World Showcase this day. I knew I had wanted to do my idea of "Treats around the World" but we weren't doing that yet. This meant we would have to do World Showcase twice. Stitch never really liked World Showcase from the few times she'd visited so to make her do it twice, combined with her ankle did not make a nice brew.....We had already made it as far as American Adventure so I thought why stop now?

In Germany we walked around the stores and looked at all the stuff we could only dream of being able to afford one day

I've taken a picture of this Bambi on almost every trip. You think I should finally take the plunge and buy it next time? I need to learn to take a picture of the price tag so I know how much to save up for it!

We took a quick peek at what I wanted to get from Karamel Kuche once we did our Treats around the World.

I'll be seeing you later Mr. Super Yummy Caramel Apple!

In China, we saw the Reflections of China show. The narrator dude is a little overkill stereotypical Chinese but I guess it works.

Once we reached Norway, we decided to use our fancy FPs we got earlier for Maelstrom.

Let me tell you I would never wait 20 minutes to get on this ride. It's just not worth it. But our FPs got us on there in less than 5. We skipped the show afterwards because it was now getting on and I wanted to get in one more ride towards the front of the park....

By this point, Stitch had become really quiet and wasn't saying much. Would she make it the rest of the night?

 

[teekathepony]

Oh dear, I hope the ankle holds up! Poor Stitch!
I heard the English Channel a bit too. They sounded pretty good!
I understand what you mean about the Voices of Liberty... I guess maybe you have to be American to properly get the right feeling?

 

[TinkerbellLuvr7]

Oh no!! I hope your friend was able to hold up I love the epcot ball pic, so cool!!

 

[englishrose47]

I didn't know The Beatles had been replaced !!!Can't wait to hear the English Channel !!! Hope they are not as ROUGH as the real Channel !!!

 

[englishrose47]

I hadn't heard about the new group !!Can't wait to hear them !!

 

[3prettyprincesses]

Great update Jen. Though I'm a little worried about Stitch's ability to keep up with you since she has a bum ankle! Yikes. I hope it didn't bother her greatly. Come to think of it, didn't Bubba have a lame foot too on one of your trips? You need sturdier travel companions!

You know, I love Epcot but my favorite section is actually Future World. Though I do love Maelstrom! Apparently you did not! That's ok, I won't think badly of you now.

Man, that caramel apple would have been calling my name till I snatched it up. However did you manage to NOT buy one? You must be made of steel.

I hope you made it on to Spaceship Earth before you left. That should have been ok for Stitch since you sit for so long, right?

And yes, you should've just bought that crystal Bambi. It's so cute!

Looking forward to the continuing ankle saga!
