That kid loves a hat. He also got an engineer cap. It makes "choo choo" noises. He loves that thing. We sat up his monorail and trains tonight and of course he wore it while he played. So cute. It's a really cute hat too. I'll have to show ya.[/QUOTE]


OMG! The hat sounds so cute! Definitely show me it! The monorail and trains sound like fun! My DS would love it! Trains are another Obession of HIS!!!!

Those puppets OMG! My DD 14 still plays with those dang things when we walk by them! so I guess they catch all kids eyes!!
I love how DD poses for all the pics!

[tinkgurl]

Those darn puppets!

[xoktenox]

I swear those puppets have child magnets in them! Kids just love them!

Of course I think the WS pictures are wonderful. I didn't get enough of those while I was there. The KP adventure sounds cool too. We didn't get a chance to try that either. All things I'm going to have to find time for in Dec!

And for the record, I wouldn't have settled for anything less than the pink umbrella too

[Maureenmouse]

Love the pics in china. my girls like the umbrealla too. Currently purple and blue are their favorite colors! Oh and the puppets! We used to have one of those. It got lost when we moved
I think it was a pink flamingo.
My girls can't wait to play Kim Possible. They are also planning to do penny pressing and the passports. We have 3 days scheduled for Epcot, so i think they'll have plenty of time! Do you remember where you got your passports? can we get them before hand at World of Disney or just in epcot?

[pmama]

So, did they enjoy the Kim Possible thing? Would you do it again?

[Lynn5700]

OOh I love China!! Especially the umbrellas. So cute. I have a purple one. Have to get a pink one next time haha.

I did not notice the dragon topiary when I was there lol. I'm blind lol. It's really cool!

[eandesmom]

LOL on the puppets!

Mine have a thing for the masks....I've escaped so far.....

thumbs up on the pink umbrella...question is, is it still intact?

Great minds think alike! Umbrella's are much nicer IMO. Do they look the same in France? Ya know every time I go to WDW I notice something I didn't notice before. That's why I like it so much. Especially this year with the crowds down and all. You can really enjoy it. Not good for Disney but great for me! I know you said no but you should really reconsider a trip in December. Look at all the people going the same week. It's going to be so much fun!

DD with the pink umbrella is super cute!!!

Kim Possible is on our list of must-dos for this trip!!!

KP is fun. Your kids will enjoy that. It takes ya into a lot of stores though. Have the spending money ready. LOL

Great pictures. The colors are so vibrant. We didn't get time to wander into the countries so I'm loving your report.

That doesn't surprise me one bit! Those two...they would be a lot of trouble together if we lived closer. Ya know it? They never stopped. It was talk talk talk. I didn't play in the countries as much as I wanted because of the rain but we hit a few several times. Stupid rain!

LOL I have to say my kiddos have not been sucked in by the puppets yet and it sounds like I should be very grateful they haven't ! DD umbrella is very pretty , can't blame her for making that her first purchase

Well they will be soon enough. Trust me....you want to stay as far away as you can from the puppets. Well good thing is you see it here and hit it on your next trip.

I will. It's cute and it makes sounds too. I don't know where he hid it right now. When he takes it off he hides it so the other kids can't wear it.

Evidently so. KP is fun. The only bad thing now is everyone plays it so you see the "surprise" before you get to do it. I suggest going early in the day or late at night.

Oh I am so sorry you lost your puppet. For real. I'm not kidding. Did someone lose a lot of stuff or just certain things? They will like KP! The passports are sold all over Epcot. They're usually up by the registers in every store. They're only $10! They're so cute and I think it's the best deal in Epcot. I've never seen them anywhere other than Epcot...

This was our second time playing. They have 6 different kinds you can do. (I think it's 6) It was more fun back in March. Now everyone is playing it so you'll go to your call and another family will be there finding the surprise. That part is not as fun. I'd try and do it as soon as WS opens.

I'm just guessing you guys have a house full of Disney stuff! Am I right? We have a DIsney bathroom in the main living area....so everyone sees it and I'm sure many think we're nuts. Upstairs the kids each have Disney rooms and you see WDW pics everywhere. I used to have a Disney comforter on my bed. LOL

How did you miss the HUGE dragon!?

Oh no. Those masks are everywhere too. Actually the umbrella still is in tact! She takes very good care of it. I'm very proud of her. She also bought a necklace and a pair of earrings. She still has it all. SURPRISINGLY!

Your pictures came out so good and that's just from ONE pavilion! I see the puppet obsession was not quite over......

I can't wait to get back to the China Pavilion to see how accurate some of the stuff is from what I actually saw on my trip to the real China.....

Will we see trolls in Norway?

Thanks. Now, the obsession is done. For this trip anyway. I'm sure next time we'll have to stop and play again!

Trolls? Absolutely! You will be seeing one with a visitor parked upon him!

[manntra]

More puppets!!!
Love the umbrella! She is adorable!
I talked with my neighbor last night and she can go at the time of of F&G too so looks like I will do some changing and go maybe in late April or anytime in May. I told her all about your pictures and she is excited!! I think I can book in August or around there! I have done January, July, August, October (this year) and when I was younger always over Easter vacation so I am excited for next year!

I can see there is no way I am going to be able to avoid those darn puppets in July is ther/

[MagicShell]

I have been reading your report. Your pictures are great and so are your daughter's. I am glad she chose the umbrella, it is very pretty. We have stayed at the All-Star Movies before. We really enjoyed it. We have never stayed at the other two All-Stars, but we did stay at Pop. We liked it too. We aren't too hard to please I guess. As long as the room is clean, I can live with it.

[reyasmommy]

I just got caught up on your TR

Your kids are adorable and I'm enjoying all of your great pictures!

Thank you for sharing and I look forward to reading more.
