Nice of you to actually post a photo of yourself young man- considering you never do!
Very, very good. Now keep us on the fast track please!

I'll do another one tomorrow.

**Cinderella2** · 12-29-2007, 10:58 AM

Good. You know how I love all the scenery. I loved that window. I have never been to the hotel where you guys stayed so it was cool to see what you did!
I can't wait!

More about our room. We stayed in the Cabanas which reminded me of my dogs. One of them is named Lola after the Barry Manilow song: Copa Cabana.

Anyway we stayed in room #

And we decorated for Christmas...

My mom brought the tree. I had the Mickey, Minnie, and Pluto from years ago. I knew I should have brought lights!

We even had a Hidden Mickey in our room!

Our view from the room:

Today we went to one of my favorite parks...EPCOT! We ate breakfast every morning (except for the last day) at the Pepper Market. So we ate at the PM, and headed for the bus. I took a peek into the Rix Lounge and found these beautiful lanterns hanging over head.

I noticed the rotunda ceiling for the first time in the lobby. That's kinda sad since I been there last year, and I didn't notice it.

Here we are EPCOT!

Then I saw a line in front of SSE...but no walls I wanted to try to ride it even if it was a soft opening. It was open! Even though the signs saw the "official" opening is in February.

I thought the new signs for SSE were cool so I took a pic:

I have a lot more pics of SSE I won't post them to save room.

I also found the original SSE logo in the flower bed.

After the amazing ride of SSE we went to Mouse Gears. Then we headed to Ellen's Energy Adventure.

Then it was Figment time! I just love how Disney puts so much detail into the pre-shows.

I snapped this one before Figment got into it.

After Figment we stopped for a snack and found these ducks in the flower bed.

Then we headed into World Showcase.

Coming Up Next: World Showcase

**Thumper10** · 12-30-2007, 11:45 AM

It does take some getting used to. But it still looks great!

It was busy. We don't go to any of the parks on Christmas day.

It was cool! The updates were great. There is still some thing I probably would have done better.
