Several weeks ago, me, hubby and one of my bestie went on a vacation at Orlando, Florida and after our vacation we moved to a new city and a new apartment so I got a little busy and laziness got over me again...haha...that's my excuse for today....but seriously I missed all of you and as promised (to my blogger buddies) here's some of my vacation photos but......

I like.....

  • K-drama, Costco, New Apartment, Rompers...
I don't like.......
  • Hubby's new assignment...
  • I just discovered yesterday that I have some signs & symptoms of scleroderma or worse..I'm a bit scared....:(
I want you to know.......
  • I've been reading all your posts....
I've planned......

I want to say to someone special......
  • Happy Birthday to my Mom and to my favorite cousin.....I love you both!


Orlando Vacation Day One.......

Disney's EPCOT

The Future World

Glad I had the kids meal, as I wasn't so happy about the food...


Disney's Monorail

We Enjoyed the World Showcase so much...
Canadian Mickey's & Pluto's


Canada
This pavilion has totem poles, falls, garden, a steakhouse and O Canada!(360°movie)

United Kingdom
lots of shops selling brit items & a pub

France
this was supposed to look like Paris,
with two french restaurants & a bakery...
I was so surprised to see a Guerlain store here.

Morocco
This was our favorite, feels so much like you're in Morocco..
with mosiacs, baazars and belly dancers...



Japan!!!
This pavilion has japanese restaurants,
a huge store which sells japanese items from clothing,kitchenware,books,candies to hello kitty...
and Taiko drummers

Everybody love japanese snacks..
this one was taken from a small shop outside.

The American Adventure
with an audio-animatronic stage show which we didn't have time to see...

Italy
A replica of St. Mark's Campanile(pictured), Neptune Fountain,
Doge's Palace, a restaurant
and a shop which sells Italian goods such as Bulgari and Moschino perfumes

Germany
Includes a german restaurant, shops selling german goods
and a miniature village and train

Africa
there's really nothing in here except for a safari themed shop

China
A replica of Temple of Heaven (pictured),
a "Reflections of China" China's history & scenery in 360°movie
and two Chinese Restaurants..

Mini Terracotta Army


Norway
A Stave Church, a restaurant & shop and Maelstrom (a viking ship ride)


Mexico
The main building is a Pyramid and inside are shops, mexican restaurant
an exhibit and an indoor boat ride similar to "It's a small world".
my most favorite part is the Illuminations:Reflection of Earth show at the world showcase lagoon, it features fireworks, lights , lasers. fire and fountains.

Orlando Vacation wouldn't be complete without a visit to "The Most Magical Place on Earth"...

That is so touching that you wear your dad's watch. And I find it so cool that you can swap with your hubby. Mine won't let me touch his other ones. =\

Hey hun, I'm not familiar with scleroderma but please go to the doctor and get checked out! I am sure you likely don't have it, but better to be safe than sorry. *hugs* Also, happy b-day to your Mom and cousin! :D Woo hoo...yay to you posting your trip pics! *sigh* Someday, I will go to Epcot! I love their idea of having different countries represented. :) Plus you always take the best pics. Hee hee...you look so cute with your Minnie Ears! I love wearing mine when I go to Disneyland too. Guess we are both big kids. ;)

Ahleessa said...

How fun!!! I love Disneyland... hehe~ I went beginning of this year and I might go again next week... wheee~

What K-dramas are you watching? You need to watch "Baking, Kim Tak Gu." It's such a good drama. I usually don't watch dramas that aren't miniseries because I don't have the time to wait week after week for the episodes, but this one it's too good to turn it down... hehe~
