Were at Epcot and about to start our tour! Pete, Walter, Kathy, and I!

Update!
Just left Epcot! Were headed off to lunch at Whispering Canyon

Lunch was great, chicken and ribbs. Just finished up my peach cobbler. Were headed to MK! Nancy is our tour guide. She is from New Jeresy and just terrific. Having a great time so far!

Just left the Central Shop! 300,000 sq ft work shop. This is where they build paint and create ride cars, floats etc. Way cool my favorite part so far.

Sorry for any typos I’m on the iPhone. And my battery was dead so I couldn’t update any more.

The rest of the tour was really cool. Got to seeth infamous “tunnels” and caught the parade to finish it off. All in all you get to see some cool behind the scenes operations and gain a whole new appreciation for Disney. Thanks again to Nancy for a wonderful tour.

    Will, is that the name badge they gave you? I went on the tour back in mid December and all we got were our names written on Avery labels, with the tour logo printed on them! All other tours I’ve been on always have nice, custom name badges for participants, so I was disappointed in our peel and stick “hello my name is” style badges. Looks like they’ve corrected that little cut corner.

    I can’t wait to hear all about the tour. I’ve always wanted to take one of the backstage tours. I’m glad you’re having a good time.

    I’m thinking of doing this tour when I visit the World in June, so I look forward to reading your thoughts.

    I also assume that you get to keep the name badge — what a great souvenir!
