We're here! Updates From the World.

Just wanted to start a thread where I could post photos and notes every once in a while! We checked into CBR last night and headed over to DTD for dinner, then to MK for some rides before the Halloween Party started. Today's Epcot! See ya real soon! mickey

Had a great time at Epcot today! Tried a bunch of dishes at the Food and Wine Festival, rode the "new" Spaceship Earth, and rode Ellen's Energy Adventure (though I'm not sure WHY and will probably not ride again for a while... waiting )

I'll post some photos tomorrow, but wanted to share a few more from MK today:

1. I know Space Mountain is under refurb, but does anyone know what this big black stripe is?

2. A Main Street Emporium worker...

3. Some pins I bought for Zapperz! (Just kidding...!!)

Spent some time at the Food and Wine Festival! Really enjoyed the new Bangkok and Rio booths, and had some old favorites like Le Cellier's Cheddar Cheese Soup!

And then got to visit La Cava del Tequila (though it's PACKED most of the day..we tried three times to find a time that wasn't saturated with tequila-lovers)

I am loving the pictures. I recently had a friend come back from a trip down to WDW, and one of my best friends is getting married next summer and is planning her honeymoon down to the world . . .it makes me sad and jealous that my next trip isn't closer.

@ Vettelover -- Har har har!! Wink I have no idea why that's there either, so your idea is as good as any I'd have!

@aglassslipper -- Sad Poor you. Do you have any idea when your next trip will be? (I wish I did sad !)

We are looking at Sept. of 2011 for our own honeymoon. A trip just isn't in the cards until then with all the saving we need to do with paying for a wedding, honeymoon . . .a downpayment for a house . . . I desparately need a new car . . . it seems the list just goes on and on.

More photos! These are mostly from Epcot again, but we headed out to AK today! Not sure where to have dinner...

Thought this was a cool set of Halloween pins, and I knew we had pin lovers around here:

Found this mask in Italy to be quite funny:

And here's the Germany mini-train! One of our favorite things to watch:

Checking in from Magic Kingdom! Here's a photo in anticipation of the new Snow White Blu-Ray release (and in "memory" of the Fantasyland that will soon be past)

I'm genuinely curious if ZapperZ has any High School Musical pins.

Haha! He probably got a few in one of the "random pin" bags or something!

Here's a photo of another cool pin we saw at the Magic Kingdom!
