mcjaco Posted March 3, 2009 Author Posted March 3, 2009 So Friday was our last day at the parks. Abra had a late flright Saturday, but we decided that sitting around the pool would be more of a relaxing way to end the trip. Anyway, back to Friday, we once again went back to EPCOT. Or least I revisited it again, Abra wasn't in town for our earlier trip. My parents headed off to do the shorter of the backstage tours of Future World, while we checked out the new stuff again. Abra loved Nemo, and thought SSE was very well done and loved the video at the end. We ended up hooking back up with Robb, Elissa, some guy named Bryan, Reed, and Stacey, and headed over to Spoodles for dinner. I'd never been to the Boardwalk, which instantly gave Elissa ammunition to pick on me since I'd inadvertantly missed a microbrew. Silly me. I know better now! After dinner it was back to EPCOT to check out Illuminations sans fire barge. This whole trip kicked ass. It was relaxing, I meant some more awesome TPRers (minus Bryan), and got to hang out with good friends, and managed to hang out with family. That's like five birds with one stone. Could you ask for anything better? I think not. Here's the last round of photos. The trip was awesome. Abra is starting to understand Disney, which means I'm one lucky dude. Thanks for everyone hanging out. It was a great trip. After dinner it was Illuminations, and a bit of sadness, as we were all headed home. Danger is my cup of tea. Oui, oui. Morocco's tower. Points upward like....that out of control eyebrow hair I just noticed. Artsty farsty quota filled. So I decide to run and get pizza. Really, there isn't anything else to do in this pavilion anyway. Kristen also tries to get the duck to kill me. Elissa conspires with a duck. See, I told you ducks follow me. Just check out one of past PTRs. Mmmm, beer. Just think 2001. All of us tried out the Kim Possible Missions. They are a must do. Absolutely way more detailed and cool then I anticipated. I'll skip the terrible norwegian accent. I was, however, not the first to pass this way. I wonder if anyone's ever climbed those..... Yeah. Didn't even step foot in here this time. Take that you Horizons killer! Even Mars makes me look dead sexy! Look at me. I'm gorgeous! Mine, mine, mine. *sigh* I wish..... Not so suttle hidden Mickey. Speaking of which, Living with the Land has a new exihibit! OK, every trip I go on, ducks seem to get involved. And the angels sang...... Perhaps it's all the roughage we eat? In the future I need to stretch, because of constipation. Did you really think I'd not post a SSE pic to start this part out? Pah leeze.

dandaman Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I do wonder if the Food and Wine Fest was moved back a few months... P.S. Even I knew there was a microbrewery on-property.
cfc Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Glad that Abra is staring to "get" Disney, Matt. Next time, you and I have to hit that microbrewery.
nay Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 My parents headed off to do the shorter of the backstage tours of Future World, while we checked out the new stuff again. How is that tour? That's one I've been meaning to check out. That Boardwalk microbrewery is decent. I enjoyed hanging out there one night last year when my flight home got canceled. Awesome Epcot photos!
Mr. Robinson Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Long time lurker and finally decided to join. Great report! Has anyone seen how the progress is going on the Beltway Expansion? Have they pushed it back due to the economy?
Not For Sale Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Though I don't like you as a person, Matt, I'd like to say I can almost understand how someone would like this TR.
mcjaco Posted March 3, 2009 Author Posted March 3, 2009 How is that tour? That's one I've been meaning to check out. My parents, being somewhat EPCOT nerds themselves, said it wasn't worth it. I've heard that there's one tour guide in particular that really kicks a$$, and I don't think that's who they had. Though I don't like you as a person, Matt, I'd like to say I can almost understand how someone would like this TR. I'm glad we're honest in our relationship.
