June 10th - Couple MK/Epcot Updates/Observations (pics)

[MissM]

PS - I bought a PotC shirt on our last trip. It was red, with three blocks, each containing the classic character's silhouttes riding in a stylized version of the ride. I noticed Space Mountain and Splash Mountain had these as well, does anyone know if they are still being sold? If so, what other rides are featured?

This was the shirt I bought marked down from $26 to $17.99. They had a series of pins with these same designs as well. Space Mountain, PotC, Haunted Mansion and Splash Mountain. Here's the pics of those if you're curious:

Splash Mountain: http://pinpics.com/cgi-bin/pin.cgi?pin=30081

Space Mountain: http://pinpics.com/cgi-bin/pin.cgi?pin=30082

Haunted Mansion: http://pinpics.com/cgi-bin/pin.cgi?pin=30079

Pirates: http://pinpics.com/cgi-bin/pin.cgi?pin=30080

I don't know the availability on the others but I did see a Space Mountain one within the last few months. Can't say for sure if they still have them or not. (The Space Mountain one was in the store with the arcade and the HM one was in Madam Leota's cart.)

Oooooo the pic were great! BTW, looking at the COP, is it still open each day? We're going in Sept. and it's one of most favorite places.

It's been open pretty much every single day (sans about a week for rehab last year) for the last two years. Even though it's formally listed as "seasonal" it's been on full time operation. It is closed during MNSSHP though since that's a candy station.

Now why couldn't the Flower and Garden stuff be on sale last weekend while I was there? I wanted the Mickey and Minnie topiary plushie, but I thought $25 was a little much for it. I ended up buying only the "toothpick holder" (aka, shot glass).
If I were to buy some items from the mail order, would they give me the 50% off too? Or would I still be buying full price?

Yeah the plush was $12.99. I bought it three weekends ago at $24.99 myself not knowing I'd be back before the event was over. D'oh! I have no idea if they sell it at the discounted rate through mail order, but it certainly wouldn't hurt to call and ask.

TTA has been acting up lately, it seems. I got evacuated off it on Friday and Sunday.
