Guess where I am

[Huggups]

That's true but it just seems so far away right now. I usually go in May and/or November. May is an excellent time to go before the real hot weather hits

Yeah I know, the weather should be nice, but the thing I am worried about this year is the crowds. I will only be there 1 night/2days...but it will be the Friday and Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend!! UGH!!! :veryconfu

 

[Huggups]

Yeah, the holiday weekends can be tough. Just make a mental list of the things you really want to see and do and focus on them. Fastpass does make a difference with the waiting in lines. Are you staying on site?

 

[Goofyfan]

Yes, at the CSR. Mom and I arrive at about 9:30AM, renting a car and going to try and check in. After that head STRAIGHT to MK. We just plan to do that park all day and either try another park Saturday or just lounge by the pool. I just returned from a full trip in Feb. so I have already seen "everything". Because of our time constraint, Mom just really wants to see MK. So we'll see!!

Coronado Springs is nice. Having a car will definitely help as sometimes there's a long wait for the buses. I've done a lot of rides dozens of times but it's been a couple of years since I've been in WDW. No matter how much time you have? HAVE FUN! FUN! FUN!:sohappy:

 

[Goofyfan]

I most CERTAINLY will have FUN, FUN, FUN!!! :sohappy:

And you too have FUN in December!!!

I'm going back in August (solo this time!) and I will be sure to have a Dole Whip. I will also be sure to have a Strawberry Swirl - I had one for the first time in April. They're vanilla ice cream swirled with strawberry sherbet, sold at the Enchanted Grove between Fantasyland and Tomorrowland, right across from Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe. God thing they remove all the calories first, huh?

If you saw the huge stadium in the parking lot on Saturday, that's where I was. We had the closing ceremony for FIRST Robotics. Afterwards, we all evaded Future World as it closed to the public and Disney put on a firework show for us over the Land pavilion. This show was especially cool because the music was the same as Reflection of Earth, yet remixed with different beats and tempos. The best part though was the free food and desserts. Unlimited Mickey ice cream bars and cookie ice cream sandwiches, yumm.

Ha! Wait, you're in FIRST too? That's what I was there for! I'm from CogSquad (Team 6) AWESOME!!!

I thought you were talking aobut the watermelon juice at the mexican pavillion... I hate that stuff. I am not sure of the one at the Ice Station Cool... I do remember Beverly (who doesn´t?) and the ones from Germany and Israel...I liked those. :animwink:

Ha ha!! I just said the exact same thing to my mum when I got home! I filled up a water bottle of Beverly and gave some "drinks of water" to people on my team. As you can imagine, they weren't too pleased. But I also drank tons of the Germany and Isreal ones. I absolutely loved those!!! I wish I could get some at my house sometime!

Hey Dwarful,
Try a Dole Whip!!! It is soft serve pineapple ice cream.......only it isn't really ice cream. No dairy, I don't think. But it looks like soft serve ice cream. But, it's better! It's not like sherbet, though. It's better. And it's not like an icee either. It's better!

Does that make it clearer now???? :lol: :lol: :lol: (Sorry, it's hard to describe it exactly. If you like pineapples, pineapple juice, etc. try some. You won't regret it!!!)

Leaving in three days and going outta my mind! :sohappy: :sohappy: :sohappy: :sohappy:

 

[Dwarful]

Ok 2much2do...we will all give it a try...actually had some pineapple with dinner tonight...its big at our house..so i cant wait to give this a try..cant believe i have never tried it before..sounds great!

Ok, call me weird... but I actually *like* Beverly.

Not for gulping but sipping, I make sure to get some every time I go to epcot.

I looked for it while I was in Italy recently but couldn't find it

Seriously! The stuff is good, but there is a trick to drinking it.
Next time you there there, try this:
Get a little cup of Beverly, and instead of grabbing a nice sized sip as one would normally do with a more traditional soft drink, take a very small sip of the drink.

When you drink it like this it is incredibly refreshing and yummy!
