I love your postings, acp. The pictures are fantastic! What's the new show called? Also, for some reason I thought you'd end up in the England section at Epcot. How did you get your position at MGM? Keep up the report!
Drop another coin in slot and I will tell you more.

They move me around the park all the time.. I could be on any of the outdoor food stand thingies at any given time. Today I was on the ice cream stand outside the Voyage of the Little Mermaid in the Animation bit..

I'm not in Epcot because I'm not on the Cultural Representitive Program, which is the year-long one they do there. I've applied for that, and am waiting to hear about the interviews for it, which I believe are coming up soon...

The new show in the Magic Kingdom is called "Dream along with Mickey".

Only 17 more days until I'll be down there Andrew, I can't wait. Seeing your pics makes me want to be there now. Especially since the castle is back to it's traditional look. I hated the big Mirror thing, but I will miss the characters on the Spires. Are you planning on going to any of the Not So Scary's?

There was a plan to go to one a couple of weeks ago, but the person I was going with had their schedule changed, so couldn't make it. Not sure when/if we're going now..

Hopefully someday we'll see that photo of you on someone's photo album claiming the drinks were only $2. hehe

I'll have to make sure that I have lots of fun in Epcot during the Food & Wine and make sure I have the next day off. What was your favorite country?

How long does the food and wine go on for?

The sunset photos of the World Showcase are awesome!

I loved reading all your friend's blogs as well. You should tell them about Subsonic Radio :)

Wooo, I got my new nametag today :)

The only problem is that "Chesire" should be "Cheshire"...

You probably can't tell too well from this picture, but the new one is slightly larger than the old one.

I'll be here until November 10th. I do have an application in for the year-long Cultural Representitive Program at Epcot, however I'm still waiting to hear about the interviews for that. I do believe that starts in March/April time, though. I guess we'll have to wait and see :)

Hey Rich, you may have said this earlier somewhere on this site but I can't find it, how long are you down there for? If you are down in the World around the weekend of the 21st you, your wife, Andrew, my brother, and I could meet up. Or just the three subers could.
