Beverly is a carbonated sour grapefruit soda. The taste is bitter.

Thanks, Amy, for the pic of the fountain choices for Club Cool.

You're welcome. I have some better ones but photobucket was being obstinate last evening

[MadEye]

And where can you try all these wonderful international sodas?

In their respective nations. Except maybe Mezzo Mix. If you can find a Coca-Cola Freestyle machine near you, there is a Coke Citrus flavor.

I just have one question:
What is Beverly??
And where can you try all these wonderful international sodas?

You've never tried Beverly?! Well then, you must simply have some. It is quite delightful! I like how it says it is used as an appetite stimulator before dinner. Yeah, because it makes you hurl and you therefore have more room for food
Beverly hails from Italy and so far, it seems only Mousekedude truly enjoys the drink
You can try one of several different International sodas at Club Cool located by the Fountain of Nations in EPCOT

I've been to Epcot three times, spent extensive amounts of time there, and missed this?

I swear, a person could spend a month at WDW and not see or do everything. Thanks!!! EAGERLY looking forward to this one.

It's around the Fountain of Nations and is in the Communicore/Innoventions wing opposite from the wing that has Mouse Gears.

Always something new ~ if only to you ~ to try at WDW! Be sure and snap a photo of yourself and anyone traveling with you when they taste Beverly for the first time. Then share it here viewtopic.php?f=9&t=6496&hilit We have a whole thread for What's Your Beverly Face

[MmeLeota]

Awesome pic Amy! I don't know if we thought to take one like that or not...
We tried the one from Japan and found it to be rather tasty as well. It was nice to have a non-carbonated choice.

I'm hoping to get through more pics today so I can post the next part of our trip....

I've lived across the street from WDW property for four years (in Central Florida almost 6 1/2) and I still haven't done everything at WDW.

Very true. We just spent 12 days there on our 7th trip in 6 years, and we still haven't done everything we've been meaning to do!

By the way, I'm working on getting organized to start posting something resembling a trip report. Hopefully some of the other M.M's can post some stuff soon as well.
Also, Boilerbabe texted me and asked me to say "Hello" to everyone for her. She's not feeling well and is spending a couple days with her parents (no internet). She says she will try to get back on here soon.

[MmeLeota]

Feel better boilerbabe!!!! Pixie dust headed your way!!!!

[yodiwan1]

BOOOOOO to feeling crummy! Here's hoping a little TLC from Mom and Dad gets you back to yourself in no time!

Mousekecouple’s trip report, Day 1

Okay, I finally got all my pictures uploaded to my computer at work (my hard drive at home was too full for all of them), and I’m ready to start posting about our trip. Like I mentioned earlier, this report is going to be in bits and pieces, not necessarily always in the right order of days and events, because we didn’t take nearly as many pictures this time. I didn’t keep a journal or anything either, so the whole 12 days is just kind of a big blur. But I do remember the first morning, so we’ll start with that.
Our flight from Houston at dark-thirty in the morning was great despite the intensely cold weather. Due to all of Mouseoholic’s business traveling she had enough airline miles racked up to get us both upgraded free to First Class. We could never have afforded that otherwise. When we arrived, our “Limo Service” was waiting for us as planned. A little background: I put that in quotes because even though the name of the company is Happy Limo Service, we usually just get a Chevy Suburban or something… never a real limo. We normally would not be willing to shell out the extra cash for that. But as some of you may remember from our other trip reports, two years ago our driver had a wreck while returning us to the airport for our flight home. We were in danger of missing our flight, but the company sent out an actual stretch limo at no extra charge to get us there, and we barely made it. We thought that was just an unfortunate accident, and were willing to give the company another chance last year. Well, one of their drivers didn’t show up for work and failed to call in, so we were stranded at the Boardwalk and had to call a cab at the last minute. Again, we barely made it to catch our flight home. “That’s strike two” we thought. But we talked to the owner of the company and decided to give them another chance because he refunded us the cost of the cab and promised to give us free round-trip service from and to the airport this year. So that brings us up to now. When we got to the airport, our driver was waiting for us, and we had a really good first impression because he was the most polished and professional one we had had so far. Then he led us out to our waiting ride, and guess what…? Not a Suburban… not a Lincoln… but a brand-spanking-new full stretch black limo was waiting for us! This thing was awesome and super high tech! Here’s the inside:


Mouseoholic was quite pleased:


We never could have afforded that thing ourselves, so we were grateful that not only did the owner keep his word, but he was also going above and beyond to see that we had a good experience this time. It was starting out to be a good trip!
It got even better. When we arrived at the Boardwalk our room was ready and we were able to settle right in! So we got settled in and did some unpacking, then walked around on the Boardwalk taking in the sights for a little while. We bought “the bear who must not be named” as a surprise for Boilerbabe, and then we were going to head over to DHS, but then Boilerbabe texted us that they and her parents were on their way to the Boardwalk, so we waited for them to arrive. We greeted them in the lobby and gave B-babe her new friend. Here they are with her mother, Maryanne (not sure about the spelling), and her father, John:


It was a great start to a great day!

All the pictures are great thus far! Loving them all. Not much time to really catch up, just popping in here to read what I can for now. Been so busy these past few days!!
