Yes.   TCD

Now we can make fun of you for not finishing your TR quickly enough.  With the snow storm we are expecting here in the South the next few days, I will be very bored and hoping for many updates each da

I like P+F in their Christmas hats! And I love good character interaction.    Was there any Glow with the Show action at Fantasmic? 

Wow, you were on a posting tear this morning. 

 

I like your pictures of breakfast.  I'm not sure I've ever seen the inside of Akershus before.  Does not look familiar.  Glad you got to meet up with Lou and Gail. 

 

Snow must miss me.  I have to pay a visit again some day. 

 

Dinner at the pool....brilliant.  It sure looked quiet.

I love me some Quail Trail.  That's where we stayed on our trips when I was a youngling.

I had a good time riding around but went back to the PUP because we were headed back to Epcot for dinner and some Christmas festivities.

So glad you got to see Dave's castle show.  It truly is awesome!

 

And jealous that it was warm enough on your trip to go swimming.

 

The swimming was nice.  I think we swam 5 days of the 8 day trip.

 

Wow, you were on a posting tear this morning. 

 

I like your pictures of breakfast.  I'm not sure I've ever seen the inside of Akershus before.  Does not look familiar.  Glad you got to meet up with Lou and Gail. 

 

Snow must miss me.  I have to pay a visit again some day.

Another Two-Post update just added!

 

We had a good time with Lou and Gail.

Sidenote:  We go to the local library every couple weeks and the kids love it.  We checked out Mary Poppins for DD on our last visit and she just loves the movie.  She doesn't call it Mary Poppins though.  She calls it "Spoonful of Sugar."  She said the other day, "I wish I could have "Spoonful of Sugar" for a present someday daddy.

 

 

 

A girl after my own :heart:     That child needs her own Three Disc Collectors Edition on Blu Ray!!  

 

(Gabe calls Madagascar "Move It Move It!"  I totally relate)  :)

 

 

Great updates!!

Thanks Kim. I like to move it move it!

 

Whoa.  That was a lot of updates.  It sure looks like you all were having a great time.

I was testing a hypothesis.

It was a great time.

After hanging at the Fort for the afternoon, we went back to Epcot.

 

We had dinner reservations and also had our sights set on some of the Christmas festivities.

 

Here we are at American Adventure which we walked directly to upon our arrival:

If you haven't seen the Liberty Singers perform the Christmas Carols inside the rotunda, you are missing out.  Check them out if you get the chance.  We enjoyed it.

 

After the performance we checked out "The American Adventure".  This show and HOP are huge hits with our family.

 

I love the hall of flags:

When we got back outside, I snapped this picture:

We did not visit Santa though.  We visit Santa at Three Cedars Farm at home.  You may have read that TR here on FF.

 

Anyway, on to dinner:

Those carolers are wonderful.  I could listen to them for hours.  Thanks for the videos!

  

You're welcome Gwen. I really enjoyed them. It would be a definite must do if we are ever back during the Christmas season again.

You got Lou to go to a princess breakfast?!?!?!?

  

I know. I must be really persuasive.

I love the carolers.. Thank you for sharing...    Lou and Gail for breakfast must of been an incredible treat !   You are living the dream my friend....

It was a lot of fun John.

Counting my blessings every day.

The Voices of Liberty... Hands down my favorite thing at Epcot. Period.  I am a patriotic puddle in the floor by the time they are done.  God Bless America.

 

I know this was the Christmas version but still.  They are awesome.

Agree wholeheartedly Kim.

God Bless the USA

Go Braves
