I know there was some interest in the Space Coast Half/Full Marathon, being that’s it was one of the few in-person races still happening, so I thought I’d create a new thread. Overall, I felt extremely comfortable and had a fantastic time. I literally went back and forth on my decision to still...

I was wondering if anyone has had success in making a reservation at Sharks as a part of their participation in Magical Dining Month. The information says to call the restaurant, but we have tried several times and only received a "Sharks supervisor unavailable" message. I also emailed them but...

I didn't see any threads about this upcoming race - but is anyone else participating? This will be my third time and I'm hoping to be able to get to the point where I can finally jog/run most of it. Unfortunately, my shins have really been bothering me when I add running into my exercises...

Just a warning to those of you planning to visit the Water Parks - I just returned from a morning at Typhoon Lagoon, where my boyfriend had his beach towel stolen out of our bag. Nothing else (shirts, shoes, car keys, cell phone, the bag itself) was taken, just a brand new towel. The bag was...

I noticed a strange sight at the Studios yesterday - it appears the Muppet Vision hot air balloon is getting repainted, right on the Streets of America. It's in the section that is not themed to a streetscape (near the Public Library). I didn't see anything mentioned here on the boards...

Just a heads up for all you retro Epcot fans - a gorgeous set of 5 pins will be released on July 1st: SMRT-1/CommuniCore, Choose your own Ending/Horizons, Dreamfinder and Figment/JII, Figment and Mickey/SSE, and the stars of Veggie Veggie Fruit Fruit/The Land...

I just returned from an afternoon at Epcot, where they were having their "Characters in Bloom" weekend as a part of the Flower and Garden Festival. Unfortunately, while there were many, many characters out and about, there weren't any particularly "rare" or "obscure" ones like in years past...

I have an extra Ratatouille Code for the Disney Movie Rewards program and would like to trade it for a code from a movie I do not already have. Here is the list of movies that I have already used (all are DVD): 101 Dalmatians Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End Pirates of the...

I didn't see any threads on this, so forgive me if it's been posted, but SSE had its official rededication today. They held it at the Fountain of Nations stage, with Executive VP Jim Hunt and Siemens President Ken Cornelius, along with the Voices of Liberty and others. Was anyone in...

So I was watching my NewsRadio DVDs, and came across the episode "The Secret of Management." In it, some of the characters go to a Chuck E. Cheese-type restaurant complete with walk-around characters in the background. I had to do a doubletake because I could not believe my eyes - but it is...

Take a peek at the "What's HapPINing" page on Disney's official pin trading site (www.odpt.com). There you can check out the gorgeous artwork being created for a brand new series of pins that pay homage to the classic Epcot attractions (so far JII and Horizons are shown). These are part of the...

Forgive me if this has been posted elsewhere - I did a quick search and didn't see any other threads about it. But there are new Dream Ears for the YOMD. Instead of the clouds they are a very dark navy blue, everything else (the patch in front and the "Live Your Dreams" on the back is the same)...

So in honor of Epcot's 25th, I thought I would attempt to produce an origami version of Spaceship Earth. 270 individual pieces later, and I have this: It doesn't have the greatest craftmanship, but I'm pretty proud of it. It stands a little over 6 inches tall and I'm going to use it as part...

I'm heading to DL for my second time in October (18-22) and I am so excited! I was overjoyed that the fireworks will be shown on the weekend (I got to see it twice during my first trip back in 2005 and LOVED the show). However, I am a little upset that the Electrical Light Parade (aka MSEP)...

Please forgive me if this has been posted earlier today (I just got off work and tried to wade through the threads as best as possible), but while eating lunch by the Fountain of Nations today, I happened to look over at the back of SSE. Behind the Siemans lounge and Project Tomorrow, in that...

My mom was looking through old vacation photos, and found a bunch from when my grandparents went to WDW in 1971, just a few days after it officialy opened. She sent me a few great photos, but this postcard really grabbed my attention. How funny to see how the MK resort area was proposed to look...

As I was taking my usual SSE photos today, I happened to notice that SSE's signs that flank the entrance into the ride have been removed. This surprised me, considering they just repainted that section with the retro blue designs, and updated the sign to read "Siemens." I took a photo, but the...

Yes, I'm starting yet another thread in regards to the wand. But I felt this news warranted such an occassion. You see, as of tonight, SEE is now wand-less AND crane-less! The crane was removed earlier tonight, and, as I was told, the star supports are to be removed from inside SSE. I'm not sure...

Didn't see this posted yet, forgive me if it has... but there are new "western carnival" style posters promoting Toy Story Mania. The opening date is given as Summer 2008 - I guess they don't want to pull another Test Track so they're being extra cautious.

The other threads were starting to get a little cluttered, so I thought it was time for a new one. Here's the latest and greatest from Epcot (8/16): On a side note, IllumiNations was 30 minutes late last night - very strange...
