Thinking about buying a sombrero in Mexico, Epcot.

You have gotta love a place where people don't care about anything but having silly mindless fun...I have a picture of my dh in one of these hats that would make folks bust a gut but he would kill me if I posted it...hehe

Sorry OP, but I never knew that buying a Sombrero at the Mexican pavillion was a premeditated choice. I always figured it was spur of the moment type of purchase. Thanks for the giggle.

Now that I think back on previous vacations to WDW I don't think I have ever seen anyone buying a sombrero. I want to buy the biggest sombrero they have to embarrass my parents. Even though I know they will get a kick out of it.

OP, I'm going to buy that big sombrero hat for you ( the biggest one they have ) and leave it at Epcots pick-up for you, I seen from another thread we will be there at the same time so close that change purse and look for it on that Tuesday that you are there. Have fun and enjoy !

And please come back and post a picture...heehee

Terri01p that is so kind and I will hold you to that. I will be look for the hat.

We looked at the somberos for several years without buying one because we could not figure out how to get in on the plane home. Finally, last year a very helpful CM showed us how to temporarily roll up the sides using rubber bands. After putting it in a bag, it fit under the seat on the plane and it is now a decoration in DS's bedroom.

That is actually what I was planning on doing. Hanging it in my bedroom. HaHaHa

[additional note: I am currently taking painkillers due to recent surgery, so lots of things strike me funny right now ]

Timon-n-Pumbaa I am so sorry to hear that. Hope you recover quickly! Until them I'm glad this makes you laugh. I know it makes me laugh when I think of coming back from Disney and get to see the expression on my husbands face when I carry in a huge sombrero. He will kill me. LOL Good Times.

Yes, they can be beautiful, but sombreros can also be hilarious!

I love the pictures. The sombreros always makes me laugh and feel festive. You have got to love them.

Taking pictures in the sombreros (and just about every other funny hat that we come across) is one of our Disney traditions! Here's one of my two favorite men, DH and my Dad, in 2006. I love those weirdos!

By the way, the sombero that we finally bought, is now on it's way to DS's college dorm!
