Day Seven (Chipmunks - Part Two) – DATW with my Emotional Support Panda
Now the fun begins. We started in Mexico (AS YOU SHOULD) and had many a Margarita (two, and I didn’t share). I don’t know how accurate any of the rest of this is, so take it with a grain of salt…
Mexico – Margarita
Norway – Beer?
I didn’t write down WHAT beer it was and when I google what beer Norway has at Epcot I get two different ones: Carlsberg and Einstök Ölgerð Icelandic White Ale. Well first off, Epcot, Carlsberg is made in Denmark and it’s “Probably the best beer in the World” (their slogan, not mine). And I would know if it was Carlsberg, so I am guessing it was the White Ale. I don’t know, I didn’t even take a picture of it. Thank u, next.
China – Kung Fu Punch!
So China was adorably decorated with all kinds of PANDA stuff and a few of us almost bought
@rteetz one of everything. However,
@Keels came to his rescue and made him put on the face painting compromise – his Panda face!
That Kung Fu Punch was really good. I don’t know if a lot of sharing even happened. I think I went and bought my own after tasting one. And at this point I was clearly feeling pretty good because I put my Marathon Medal on my “You Did It” Mickey and carried him around the rest of the worlds.
Africa – Outpost Lemonade
I want to pretend like we belted out from Africa by Toto when we got here. I don’t know if it’s true but it sounds like fun, let’s go with it. This lemonade was delicious. Also, someone joked about having a different person wear the Panda mask in each country but I think only me and Teetz ever put it on.
And this was the closest anyone got to getting their face painted.
Germany – Schofferhoffer
I decided to get the pint glass beer so I could take it home with me and give it to my husband who didn’t care because we have too much glassware as it is. Oh well.
And before we got too hammered, I saw a photopass CM hanging out so I rallied the troops (or herded the cats, rather) and we got the ultimate DisGroup photo ever!
Italy – White Sangria and Lemoncello
We had reservations at Via Napoli, like a lot of reservations, and somehow they gave us this huge table in the middle of the room like it was the freaking Last Supper. I shared a pizza with Karen, Monica, Bree, and Scotty. Honestly could have cashed that whole thing by myself, but I didn’t know they would be so approachable.
Then someone mentioned that the worst Lemoncello they ever had was here in Italy, so I said challenge accepted and they were right. Womp, womp.
US – Beer
Didn’t write down which ones, didn’t take a picture. Just trust me that it happened.
Japan – Sake
I did everyone a favor and grabbed a sake flight and forced everyone to taste them all. YOU’RE WELCOME.
Morocco – Beer
We analyzed the beer list for far too long but picked the beer that was FROM Morocco. I don’t remember how it tasted, probably bad.
France – Wine
When in France, drink wine and make the whole group wait for you while you meet Belle and discuss Harry Potter.
UK – Not one BUT TWO Irish Car Bombs
Yeah, who thought that was a good idea? Luckily no photo evidence…
Canada – Ottawa Apple
WE DID IT!
Up next: the DATW medal ceremony!
