I laughed so hard picturing you and your Alice encounter! How perfect that she would run into her #1 Fan!
Last night I fell asleep on the couch with the tv on. I woke up at some point and there you were in my living room! I thought, "I 'know' her" and I conked back out again. (that's what having a nasty cold will do you!
)
How funny! Everytime the show is on I always get confused Facebook/Myspace messages from people I haven't seen in ten years who are like "I know we haven't spoken since high school, but I think you were on my TV last night?"
I really can't believe that in all my time at WDW that was the first time I had an encounter with Alice! It was so great.
i always wondered if this ever happened. i mean, it is world showcase, home of a variety of alcoholic beverages from all over the world surrounding a huge body of water!
totally disgusting. alice is my second-favorite character ever! i like pooh bear, but come one.....does he even compare?????
Yes, I worked in Epcot UK during the 2002 F&W Festival...and most people started their drinking in Mexico and worked their way around...yikes!
Glad you got to spend a few minutes with Alice! I like the Alice bag.
Where are you keeping Cheshire Cat's grin? We'll have to remember to try to get Brooklynn one of those sometime.
That was a nice added bonus to see a few fireworks from your room.
I put the Cheshire Cat's grin in a safe place so I would remember to put it in my scrapbook. Now I just have to figure out where that safe place is!! I'll see if I can dig it up and post a picture.
I am loving your TR! I have been a BIG lurker for a while. I finally decided to come out from hiding and post how much I am enjoying your TR. We always skip the Martin Short movie in Canada. For what reason, who knows? But I will definitley have to try it when we go for Halloween!
Thanks for posting!
I think the Martin Short movie is worth seeing once. Dude is funny. I have to say I'm not a huge fan of Circle Vision though. Give me France, where I can curl up in a seat and just worry about looking in one direction!
Love your trip report!! Can't wait for the next installment!
Thanks! I hope to post again tomorrow - I have the day off so I should have time!
I am so excited that you got to meet Alice.
I am glad you are done with the rainy day in Epcot, I am amazed at how much you got done though despite the rain. We were not that ambitious!
Maelstrom is just a weird ride. It doesn't even make sense.
I was finally able to DVR your episode and plan to watch it when I get spare minutes.
I went into Epcot that day fully expecting that the whole week would be a rainy mess and I just needed to suck it up and deal! But we really lucked out - it was the worst weather of the trip by far. We got everything done I had planned for Epcot that day!
HI! I've come late to the party but I'm enjoying your report nonetheless!!
Hi, thanks for joining in!
What are the odds of Alice saying "excuse me" to you, her #1 fan? Come on, what are the odds!
That is the coolest thing!
We were in MK that day and it did rain all day long! Yuck! Btw, I looked just like you in fashionable plastic poncho! Can't you just see Stacy and Clinton's face if they saw it?
I'm cracking up just thinking about it!
What a fun first day for you and Jakkie! Can't wait for more!
I made sure to get the ponchos in a variety of fashionable colors
Jakkie's was blue and I also had some green ones. I actually have a really funky pink raincoat that I got on What Not To Wear, it's pretty wacky looking but I convinced them that I would wear my new clothes more often if I didn't have to worry about them getting ruined by the rain
Was that rainy day the Saturday of Labor Day weekend? We couldn't believe how much is poured at times... we were at Blizzard Beach that day and laughed our heads off when it started raining and people took off to stand under umbrellas and shelters! Ummmm.... how much did you pay for admission to get wet and now that it's raining, you're hiding????!!! (if it was lightening, I could totally understand, but it was just rain!)
YES it was! Wow it was ridiculous! As I am catching up on TR's from people who were there the week before us though, I see we caught the tail end of the bad weather and were actually pretty lucky.
How cool that you got to meet Alice!!
I can't believe you have only just finished day 1 too!
I really can't believe how much we crammed into that first day! Next time I go I am definitely scheduling some down time - we were go go go this whole trip!
Beautiful.
And you have NO IDEA how happy it makes me to see that you replaced your precious Alice bag.
Stacy and Clinton are powerless in the face of eBay!
Lovin' the trip report!
I clung onto my Alice bags for dear life! No one was taking those from me, although I did have to promise not to bring them to work
I LOVE Alice! That is so cool you got a CC Grin!
It was so unexpected! I really have to dig it up and post a picture of it, it's cute.
Wow, what a great day. Haven't seen the new Canada movie yet, not somthing I think my 5 year old will wait for
Despite the rain it seem slike you had a great day. Can't wait for more
That's what I don't like about the Canada movie, you have to stand and look up at it. Not as kid-friendly as some of the other films! Thanks for reading, I plan to post more tomorrow!
