Notes
Up at 7:30
BEAUTIFUL day! Perfect temps, low humidity, partly cloudy for great pics
Got to Epcot about 9
Met Belle, Beast, and Mik in parking lot, walked with them to Soarin' but group had already boarded
Got in stand-by line (20 min wait)
Met up with others in food court after ride, had breakfast with BetsyAnn and parents
Went to Electric Umbrella for BATB meet
Attendance about the same as last year even though it was open
Gary got a Photopass guy to come and get some group shots at the fountain stage
Group broke up at 11:45
Went to M:S, rode Orange side, 30-min stand-by line - no single rider line now that there are Orange and Green sides
On way out spotted Star Tours figurines that I liked for Mikaela
Went to World Showcase, met Jon (Towncrier) on way and walked/rode to Swolphin with him
Hung out at MegaMeet from 1-4, took lots of candid pics and at least one pic of each table
Went to dock to get boat back to Epcot
Waited at dock, 2 boats went by too full to take more than a few people
Walked to International Gateway with a nice newbie couple and gave them a comlpete primer on WDW on the way
Went to MousePlanet Chocolate Mooooouusssee meet at France
Mark Goldhaber was a little late but showed up with Kelly Monaghan
Left at 6:30, stopped at M:S to get figureines for Mik
Got to Poly at 7, took some pics outside, checked in at 'Ohana at 7:20
Browsed shops, listened to singer in Tambu Lounge
Went to podium to make sure I wasn't forgotten at 8:20 - was first on the list
Still not seated till 8:50!
No more tables for 2 anywhere in 'Ohana, only tables for 3 against the windows
Missed shuttle launch by 5 mins, as I was getting seated
Table had obstructed view of Wishes thanks to pillar
Could have moved around but it would have blocked the view of the family behind me
Service excellent, food excellent
After dinner, walked grounds a little and took a few pics
Back to Pop by 11, downloaded pics, charged batts
Bed about 12
