Thank you! It was such good luck that I was chosen!

I am trying to run in the Princess next February!!! Sooo much training to do though lol. Not a runner...
I started checking it out thanks to your training report!
I'm currently doing couch to 5k but admittedly I'm a bit behind.
That's it, you're cut off. Oh wait, I guess if it's months after the fact, that really doesn't have much impact, eh?Day 6: Epcot Part 2We left off with my fantastic picture-taking skills in Germany. From there, we made our way to Italy and began to explore, and that is when tragedy struck. Somehow, when trying to maneuver my phone in one hand, I knocked my drink out of my own hand and all over the ground. A true party foul.
Wow, can I get your autograph if we have a DISmeet? You're a celebrity now!British Invasion is one of my favorite parts of the UK. I am such a big fan of (1) the UK and (2) music, so it's like being home. Anyway, we were standing in the back (Jenna and I - Devin had popped into the shop behind us) and the lead singer informs the crowd that sometimes celebrities come to the show, and then points out the three runners in the back. Needless to say, Jenna and I look around and behind us to find the people who had run the half marathon... If I could use phone emojis here I would, because it was a total face-palm moment. He meant us. And we turned around to see who he meant. And on that note...
I went to EPCOT the year it opened and Figment has always been one of my fondest memories from that first trip and still one of my favorites. I know it's more for kids, but I'm just a BIG kid.I don't know the exact order of things, but we managed to get a LOT in this park done thanks to being here open to close. Pretty sure that we first went to the Visa Character Spot (love my Disney Visa card!) to meet some friends and it was Minnie and Pluto! Minnie loved our medals and held one out for the picture. After that we did a ride I had never done before - Figment! It was an absolute walk on. Honestly, this day was super quiet over at Epcot and most rides never got much of a line - not even the popular ones. Also, the park just felt kind of empty in general - there were no crowds to fight.
Illuminations has been one of my least favorite (until I saw ROL) night shows. I agree there could be many improvements here (especially making Bier Garten 3 or 4 times bigger --- oops, my bias is showing isn't it?)We timed this perfectly and had finished our dinner just a few minutes before Illuminations started. So I ordered another drink to go and we watched the fireworks. We had been seated outside on the top deck of the patio, so we had to maneuver a bit to see the show, but that's okay. This might be an unpopular opinion, but I think that this show is in serious need of an update. Honestly, I think a fair amount of Epcot feels kind of stale, and all the empty buildings make me feel sort of sad. There's so much work that needs to be done. With that said, it's still one of my favorite parks and I have a ton of fun there, but I think that Epcot improvements should be their next project.
I see no proof. That could have been a picture of three random people...how do we know that's you or anyone you know?See! I do travel with other people!
