@betty rose Sorry to hear Mr. Rose is under the weather. I am also not a big beer fan, but I will second what Figgy said. If you can find that grapefruit beer they serve in EPCOT, that stuff is really good, too. Although, it might be more that it reminds me of being in a happy place, than the actual beer. @donaldtoo , do you happen to know what it is called?

Yes...!

 

[MouseDreaming]

I want a purple one too. I hope that's what I get when we upgrade the tickets

Cut out smallish spots of black tape, and instant animal print!

 

[MouseDreaming]

Yes...!

That's it! I was surprised I liked it. Can't stand grapefruit.

I like grapefruit, so I'm all good there.
The only problem I have with that beer is it's only 2% ABV...

 

[Wrangler-Rick]

Yes...!

We found a store that sells it by us - Yum!!!

Ours was labeled 3.2%

They sell it by us, too. I also picked up some grapefruit shandy that Leinie's put out last summer. Also yummy! And doesn't require an extra stop. I also like joking with my DH about it. Gee, how did that get in the cart?

I'm such a light weight, it is probably a good thing for me.

 

[donaldtoo]

This guy says it 2%, and the other one says 2.5%. Maybe the first guy was just rounding down? I don't even remember tryin' to find out, so I didn't know 'til I googled it. Maybe they also make it with higher ABV...?

And yet, the vast majority of us didn't.
Go figure...

yes, but you still lack that amazing toupe. Therefore us mere mortals cant live the life!

I never thought I'd be planning on going to UNI let alone being equally excited for both. I couldn't believe how cheap the food is over at UNI compared to Disney. Not to mention not having to plan so much.

Inside the park the food seems to be.. of similar levels.
seems way cheaper right outside the park (aka in citywalk)

The Ghibli Museum was pretty cool. There was an exclusive short film there, but it was pretty weird. Every single sound effect was made by a person and often got incredibly annoying. The story was easy to follow despite being in Japanese. I got an Art of Princess Mononoke book there since it's my favorite Ghibli film.

Earlier in the day we managed to find a Disney Store! It was very different from American ones especially when it came to characters and the kinds of merchandise there. There was a ton of Aristocats and Chip, Dale, and Clarice stuff for sale. I ended up getting a Berlioz Tsum-Tsum and Chip n Dale sticker.

Leaving Tokyo tomorrow until next week when I return for TDL.

until next week? how long are you going to be in japan?

Winter is on its way back...again. Oh well, Arizona in a few days!

from freezing snow queen hell to volcanic hell?

Just for a giggles this is our main ferry to and from the Island
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-35821737

at least they are forcing them to fix the darn thing.
In my country, you could pay a bribe and let that thing run until it crashes in a fiery explosion and the owner flees the country.

problem is that this ferry is unsuitabke for the route and has been plagued by problems since the second day it entered service ( crashed docking in our harbour) . We have no other ferry options and no way of getting rid of the company easy ( our government signed a naff agreement with the company).

This looks wonderful.

I'm going to keep trying to find some stuff to help Mr. Bets embrace Uni-Orlando for 2 or 3 days.

 

[Gabe1]

Good morning, everyone! Made it through the storms, and now just trying to make it through the wind gusts. Of course, it is garbage day. Really do not feel like chasing down my recyclables through the neighborhood. How are you doing @Gabe1 ? I feel like I am going to be Dorothy's neighbor soon!

My home is rattling big time. I went and fetched several things down the block that belonged to me. I had a huge tarp from who knows where wrapped around my picket fence up front.

Hear it won't settle down 'till after dark. We did OK with the storm last night. There seemed to be a little split in the Orange Red Yellow blobs that tamed it for us a little bit. I keep watching my huge tree in the back yard wave at me. Unnerving.

I was in that anti Uni camp for a long time. Many will not let go of what Uni-Orlando once was and that is OK but IMO they are missing a nice resort holding onto that. I equate it those who hated AK as much as I did initially and they still refuse to even go back for a few hours to enjoy the bit the park has to offer that might interest them.

Now where is that LET IT GO image?
