Things I can't wait to buy in Disney World: Part 6

I have a feeling this will be my last "shopping list" post, as the list is now long enough!

You can't talk about Disney (movies or parks) without talking about the music. The music in the parks especially, set the perfect mood. Even walking from one land to the other, you notice a distinct change in music.

I was quite surprised to see the following item show up on another blog and realize that I didn't have it in my Amazon wish list:

If you know your Disney history, you will know that 1964 World's Fair was the precursor to many great Disney park attractions. Of course the 5 CD set must be added to the other CD's in my collection.

Reason 13

Love the detail in this attraction!

But I don't want to be a crash test dummy!!!

Reason 15

Ok, time for a sappy story....

The last time we were in Disney World, we went to EPCOT on our first day and made a mad dash to Soarin'. As soon as our feet had left the ground and the ride started, my eyes started to water.... Must have been my eyes adjusting to the dim light.

Reason 16

On a recent episode of Ellen, she mentioned she had never been on Jeopardy. Obviously she forgot!

Sunday, April 19, 2009

Reason 17

How I wish they would bring back the original ride!

Reason 18

Still one of my favorite countries in EPCOT.

Things I can't wait to buy in Disney World: Part 5

Instead of having 1 post per item I want to buy, I thought I would compile a list of items that I have found over the last little while, that I'm hoping to find.

The above item is a Pockitpal from Robert Olszewski. If you aren't familiar with the Olszewski collectibles, you are truly missing some great items. Robert Olszewski creates these wonderful miniatures that have the most amazing detail. He has even recreated Main St. The above is obviously one of the stretching portraits from the Haunted Mansion. Too cool for words.

The above shirt is actually from Lucky Brand jeans. I will be going to the Florida Mall in Orlando, so I'll be able to look for this t-shirt. Since Disney brought Oswald back home, I've been looking for any Oswald merchandise.

I'm not big on garden sculptures, but this Mickey Gnome is just too fun to pass up. I just have to find a place in the car to take him home. BTW, he is one of the merchandise offerings for the International Flower and Garden Festival at EPCOT.

Reason 19

Everytime I watch the movie, I promise myself to go to China one day....

Thursday, April 16, 2009

Reason 20

One of the prettiest countries in EPCOT.

Wednesday, April 15, 2009

One of these days I will actually eat at the restaurant in Japan. Can you hear the drums?

Sunday, April 12, 2009

Reason 24


Ahhhhh.... Paris in Spring!

Reason 25


I'm actually sad that it will be closed when I'm there. Didn't get to ride it the last time.

Friday, April 10, 2009

Reason 26


Why can't I get that song out of my head?!?!?
Funny side story, my brother actually fell asleep on this ride once. And it wasn't when he was a kid!

Thursday, April 9, 2009

Reason 27


Watch out for hitchhiking ghosts!

Wednesday, April 8, 2009
