Disney World Photos

I don't know if anyone has posted similar pics before. We went to Disney World last weekend and these are pics I took in EPCOT. In the third picture in the back of the truck, you can see a little bit of the white button in a shipping case.

Wow those are awesome!!! Did Disney paint the "other" language on them or did they import them? Way cool stuff tell us what you know about them.

It looked to me like Disney had added the languages and patina.

Dan,

You were in Disney last weeked?!?!?  ME TOO!!!!  We left here on the 22nd and came back last Sunday night.  I saw those coolers.  They were embossed in English.  Disney painted over them with the foreign script.  Also, if you lift the lids, they had misting nozzles in them to squirt you.  I think they were off.  However, I've been there in the hot weather and they give you a decent squirt.

Dang! Missed ya. We went down on Friday and came back on Monday. It was a quick trip. I have a friend who works for Disney and that helped out on the $.  Inside the coolers they also had bottles in fake blocks of ice.

Man, we were in EPCOT on Friday, too.  We were there in the morning and went to the Magic Kingdom in the afternoon.  Saturday, we were at Hollywood Studios and Sunday we were in the Magic Kingdom before coming home that evening.

Jim,  sorry we didn't meet up.  I saw some of the message traffic about the show before I left.  But, I didn't think I'd get there, as our plans were pretty solid.  I am, well let's just say, a plan freak, so our restaurant reservations were made, etc.  I wish I would've stopped by.

Heck, Josh is now in Orlando, too.

Man you must have been running through the parks to do 3 days of it . WOW I was there the 1st week of December and it took a week to get through all the parks.

I don't know about Wayne, but we didn't see all of the parks. We were in Epcot on Sat., Magic Kingdom on Sunday. There weren't really any lines though, so that helps.

BTW: The fishtail sign on the wall was an original one.

We were there for 9 days (including the days we arrived and left).  We had 8-day Park Hopper passes.  We took a day off mid-week to rest a little.  We generally did 1 park per day and then repeated the process.  The Hopper passes were nice, since we did visit a few parks in the same day.

Disney, although it is a vacation, it all about pre-planning.  You have to look at what you want to do and then figure out the best plan.  Most folks don't do this, but if you do the pre-planning, you can minimize your wait times.  For example, one of the hottest rides is Toy Story Mania.  We headed to that when the park opened and the wife got in line.  I got int the other line for Fast Passes.  Then, I hopped in line with the family.  We waited 20 minutes to ride the thing and then rode it again an hour later (waiting less than 10 minutes with the Fast Pass).  So, within two hours of the park opening, we rode the most popular thing twice, also riding some stuff in between.
