Disney 2016: Day 9

8:25 a.m.
Good morning! We are currently on our way to Epcot!

Today I'm wearing a tank top from Walmart that we had embroidered to match for our last trip, athletic shorts from Old Navy, a sports bra from Boone Belles, Tevas, my FitBit and Magic Band, and ears from Jane/Etsy! Except I forgot to take a picture that morning, so here is my mom and I being all cute!

And while I showed my mom and I being cute, I figured I might as well stick this in here too!  We did a special meet and greet for Disney Visa card holders in Epcot and this ended up being one of my favorite pictures from the entire trip!


10:20 a.m.
We got in a little early this morning, so we've already been here about an hour and a half and have already ridden Soarin' twice and Living with the Land!

We also got a chance to do The Seas with Nemo and friends, which is always a big hit!  It is a cute ride that never has a wait, with a little aquarium at the end!

I love catching starfish stuck to the glass!  Even though this one has an interesting middle...

Come on now, they had to put food in the spot or rig this somehow!  There was a big and little clown fish hanging around each other the whole time we were there!  It really was Nemo!

And then Turtle Talk with Crush... Even though it is geared toward little kids, it is super cute and we had to do it again!

We were also able to catch Test Track!  And I was pretty dang proud of the car I created, if I do say so myself.


2:25 p.m.
Just finished lunch at the Garden Grill!  We love this restaurant in The Land pavilion at Epcot because the fruit and veggies are grown in the Living with the Land ride.  The restaurant also slooooowly rotates like a big lazy susan, so the scenery is constantly changing!  The food is served family style and is all you can eat... and we sure do.  I forgot to take a picture of the food, which is horribly sad because it is one of the best meals of our entire trip, but I got a few of the characters!

It is the classic characters here, so Mickey, Pluto, Chip and Dale!  Look at Pluto posing!

High fives all around from the chipmunk!

So Pluto decided to sneak around the edge of the booth and scare me, as evidenced by my face in this picture!  He was so cute and playful!

We also went up the Canada side of the world at Epcot so we could hit a few more countries we missed or just really like!

How could we go to England and not use one of the telephone booths?

I loved the way this arch in Japan framed the golf ball.  If you can't tell by our second visit here, Japan is one of our favorite pavilions! 

So I went to use the restroom and it ended up being a sort of complicated place to get to.  But once I got back there, there was this little bridge with a pond and garden!  It was so cute, I don't know why Disney would hide it back in this little corner!

This is the inside sort of market area of the Japan pavilion with all of the candy and snacks! This is always a cool place to shop and try new things because for Disney, the prices really aren't that bad!  I always get the biggest box of Happy Panda cookies they have, they are my favorite!

5:40 p.m.
We just walked over to The Boardwalk via the International Gateway out of Epcot to get cupcakes... Let me tell you, I was extremely disappointed with their selection! Some of the best cupcakes I'd seen online in Disney were here and they didn't have anything! So now we are riding a boat back into Epcot.

After we got there we stopped off in France to get a few treats.  Though the cream filled things we got in Norway were my favorite, I got a raspberry lime macaroon and to was honestly amazing.


7:00 p.m.
Well, we were all killed and decided to come on in back to the room and make it an early night.

Last day in Epcot... I'll miss the way this lights up!

We ended up having a nap and then going down to our resort's food court for dinner around 8:30. I had a Turkey and Munster Sandwich on a croissant with homemade chips, and a cream cheese danish, and it was actually much better than I expected! After we finished we came back to the room, showered, and watched the Olympics... Except I was out pretty quick!

Bulu Box: February

So I saw a coupon on this Subscription box which would make every box you ever ordered $5 instead of $10, which sounds great right?  Not so my friends... I figured this would be a nice health subscription box with healthy food and workout tips, maybe with a few supplements... It is almost entirely supplements, and I am not a big enough health nut to buy into it all... So needless to say, I canceled, but thought I'd let you know what I received and a couple of the small highlights! The first thing I pulled out was the Vital 4U Fiber Drink which is: "Packed with soluble prebiotic fiber...to promote better gut health and digestion."  These are $12.00 for a 12 pack, and I received two, so basically a $2 value.  I gave these to my mom to add into our smoothies she makes for an added boost, because I didn't want to drink them straight. There were the only things I was SUPER excited about! I love gummy vitamins!  These were the best I had ever tried, with a g...

College Countdown: Basic College Packing List

In this list I'm not going to go over every single thing.  Throughout this week I will do separate posts on Clothing and Makeup etc.  On Saturday of this week I will post a concise version of this including everything mentioned.  For now I would just like to go over basics such as kitchen items, "school supplies" and other items you may not have thought of! Kitchen These are basics that you might need if you are in a dorm and do not necessarily have a kitchen.  I will have a sink, so it will be doable for me to wash dishes as needed.  If you do not have a sink you might consider buying disposable silverware and dishes so you won't have to wash them in the bathroom. Plastic Bowls Plastic Cups Tumblers or Reusable Water Bottles - I recommend this regardless of if you have a sink. Brita Pitcher - The water will probably be different from what you are used to, and this will make the transition easier Ice Cube Trays Plastic Ice Cubes - If the water is jus...

What I did this Month: Summer 2015 Part One!

So where to begin... I stopped posting when life got hectic around the end of Spring after prom season, and it hasn't slowed down since! So I figured it might be fun to celebrate the first day of Fall rehashing my Summer  The fun began right before the end of my senior year in high school, with senior skip day where the entire senior class took a trip to a waterpark/campground! Trust me, we were beast at this kayak! At one point, we were even standing up while paddling and had perfect balance.  The only bobble of the entire trip would be when one of our friends was coming at us in his kayak with a fishing pole and hook sticking off the front.  He rammed us. And flipped us.  In water most defiantly NOT meant for swimming... It was disgusting.    And this would be us, hot, sweaty, and drenched in swamp water on our final bus ride as high schoolers! On the last day of school I never expected to be sad.  Let me tell you, I was ready for ...
