For $240pp (a bit more) you get a private lounge all day with special demos and a much less crowded PFTS (and special extras- they say.) So not too outrageous. We were going to do the PFTS on the 17th but not the WVL so I am not sure how we will go. Have to decide by Thursday morning when the D23 tickets book.

You make a good point with the pricing. At first I thumbed my nose at this, but it doesn't sound too outrageous when you explain it. Nice to see something at WDW for D23 members since there was no way I was going out to DL for the expo. We'll be there for this so I'll have tomorrow to mull it over.

The only thing (besides price

)that may make me just book the 17th PFTS is that we usually show up to Epcot around 5pm-6pm for PFTS all fresh and in nice clothes. If we are there all day we will not want to wear nice clothing and I don't really want to leave and come back (they have not given times for the demos but it states after lunch.) I guess we could go home and change after the demo. It is usually so hot in October still so I know we we be all sweaty by 6pm.

Yes! My nephie and his wife keep having their arrival time pushed back by AA so now we can sneak in this demo which I really wanted to attend. Of course, I had to pay full price for this one, but I think it will be worth it.

I've just invented "Slurp & Sloth" on October 18 which will probably involve sitting around the Ditch of Tequila for awhile (if they let people in while they're having the tasting - or is it closed during the tasting? I guess I'll find out as I have the tasting on the 17th.

Love it!

I was wondering the same thing about if they would let customers into the Cave while the tasting was going on.

How many people do you think the place holds?

A few cellphone pics I took Sunday:

Near Canada:

Near Mexico:

Something near Morocco:

TDC Nala · 09-22-2009, 08:34 PM

I think it holds around 40 (seating only - there's also standing room and a few benches just outside).

I think the tasting doesn't start till 3 anyway. That's when it'll be time for me to start thinking about dressing for V&A.

I *love* the signs around WS, too, esp. the London & Tokyo ones:

oybolshoi · 09-22-2009, 09:08 PM

Thanks for the pictures ... I think that booth near Morocco is for the international beer booth.
