It's the truth; it's actual...

Hello my lovelies.

Welcome to the super-stupendous after-Valentine's mega-post!

My apologies for not updating lately. We have a lot to cover, so let's get started.



Epcot! Becca and Thomas went all around World Showcase at Epcot last week.

Here's your requesite Becca with food picture. This time it's a churro, a delightful Latin American fried pastry similar to a funnel cake. Available in Mexico, among other places.





Squirrel wants churro.....



Thomas and Becca with Pooh and Piglet. Cute. Yes. Cute.



Becca demanded that the Sheriff from Robin Hood sign her autograph book.... or else....



C'est une jolie image, non ?
(This is a pretty picture, no?)

Leaving Epcot, there are a number of feral felines that congregate around our apartments. Somehow, um, err, mysteriously a small silver can of cat sustenance might have happened to appear near some of them while we just happened to have a camera handy.



How about some random costume pictures?

Becca got transferred from Animal Kingdom Custodial to Tusker House restaurant, also in Animal Kingdom. She has two costumes, the first one for front counter service (minus the athletic pants underneath):



The second one is her "chef" costume for working in the kitchen.



And here's a random Nikki pic.



She got an extra shift at Bibbidy Bobbidy Boutique in Downtown Disney. She loved her costume. She makes a cute little fairy.....

For Valentine's Day, Thomas and Becca had both Valentine's and the day after off together, so we enjoyed a very nice "mini-vacation."



To start, we went to Port Orleans Riverside Resort to Boatwright's Dining Hall where Thomas works to have breakfast.




Why is it called Boatwright's? Because inside they are building a boat of course! :)





After breakfast, we took the ferry boat down the Sassagoula River to Downtown Disney to do some more shopping before our 40% holiday discount ended.

We went to Magic Kingdom after that to shop a little more and go on a couple rides, including Mickey's Philharmagic and...........

SPLASH MOUNTAIN!!!



'Twas very good, as always.

Then we went home for the evening to watch LOST. We rested and relaxed the morning after Valentine's, and went out to dinner at Crystal Palace-- A Buffet with Character back in Magic Kingdom again.

Guess who the characters there are?

Pooh:




Piglet:




Eyeore:



And Tigger:



It was kinda chilly, and we got new coats, so, here's a pretty pic of us in front of Cinderella's Castle.



And finally, a bit of randomness. For all you hunters out there. There are ducks EVERYWHERE. Such as these:




Take care now, byebye then.

Another Magical Day

Jennifer, Becca, and Thomas went to Epcot today!



We rode lotsa things, including Spaceship Earth, Mission Space (Pick the orange card!!), Soarin' (Very nice!!), Living with the Land, The Seas with Nemo and Friends:


Test Track


And Thomas and Becca got to try out Segways at Innoventions!!


Then we ate at the Garden Grill "family buffet" for dinner with Chip and Dale, Mickey, and Pluto. It was good.




It was a good day. Hope everybody's good back home. Call, write, or come visit soon!! Cya.

Hi-ya Everybody!

Hi, its me, Tigger. Yeah, I'm still a CP at Disney World, and yeah I have lots of experiences to share...I just haven't had time to. Between work, school, Kyle, cleaning, and having fun, who would have time to post? Well, here we go...

Since my last post, I have gotten settled into my job, which I really like now that I don't work until one in the morning. I have normal hours...well, for the most part. I do have a couple of days next week that I work late, but that's ok. World Of Disney is awesome and I love my managers and coworkers.

Kyle and I had a day off together and got to go to Magic Kingdom! I got to have my first Magic Kingdom experience with my baby! We rode the monorail into the park, which was interesting because it smelled funny. We rode Big Thunder Mountain and went to the Philhar-Magic. Philhar-Magic is awesome by the way. It's my favorite 3D show so far. We rode the train around the park and then went to Tomorrowland to go to Stitch's Great Escape. We also rode Pirates of the Caribbean and got to meet Captain Jack Sparrow in person!!! We went to Toontown and got to meet Mickey and even got a picture with him! Yay, I got to meet the head boss... He certainly is a busy little mouse! We also got to see the parade and we did a little shopping. I love the 40% discount! Finally, we decided to leave and we rode the Ferry back. It was kinda romantic-like because it was dark and the park lights in the background was awesome...especially since we were on the second floor of the ferry. I really enjoyed my first Magic Kingdom experience. Thank you, baby. I love you! Oh, I almost forgot about Howard. I met a duck that really seemed to like me and posed while I took pictures. So, I named him Howard.

Then, Kyle and I took Jennifer to her first visit to Magic Kingdom. She seemed to enjoy it, but unfortunately, we only had a couple of hours to do things before we had to leave. Kyle and I also went to Epcot together and rode Spaceship Earth...very interesting. We also watched "Honey, I Shrunk the Audience," which was hilarious, but not as good as "Philhar-Magic." We left Epcot early because the sky was really dark and we thought it was gonna rain.

There was the one day that I went to Animal Kingdom by myself to aggravate Becca...Mainly because Becca wanted to show me a jacket in one of the shops. It wasn't much fun alone, but I did like seeing the animals. I saw a monkey and it made me miss Kyle...

Jennifer and I went to Disney MGM Studios together! Girls only-ha ha! We saw Beauty and the Beast (the musical) and went to the Indiana Jones show, both of which I highly recommend! Afterwards, we just did a little shopping and left cuz I had to go to work. :(

The Thomas, Becca, Kyle, and I all got to go to Animal Kingdom together! Yay! We rode Expedition Everest four times in a row! It is and awesome ride, but after that fourth time, I had had enough. We wanted to see the Finding Nemo show, but it was closed for some reason. So we went to Dino Land and rode Dinosaur. It was a good ride but extremely loud. After that, we were trying to make it across to "It's Tough to be a Bug," but we got caught by the parade. Finally, we made it to the show, which was great, but still not as good as "Philhar-Magic."

The day that Thomas, Becca, and Jennifer went to MGM, Kyle and I went shopping and filled the cabinets with food and such. By the time we got back, it was time to get ready to go to Arabian Nights. That is the most awesome and memorable thing we've done the whole time! The horses were gorgeous and perfect...except backstage where we saw several of them cribbing. Bad habit for horses. The show was great! But if ya wanna know more, you'll hafta see it for yourself... Or some of it...

In between working, school, and everything else I've already listed, Kyle and I have been shopping at Downtown Disney on several occasions and have certainly added to our dvd collection a great deal! We are enjoying this experience and do not regret coming at all. But we do miss our families very much...and friends and horses and cats and goats and dogs...and the quiet simplicity of country living in general! We love ya'll and miss ya'll and hope to see you soon! Lots of love!
