MouseFest Sunday, Part 4 - December 2, 2007

WINE AND CHEESE RECEPTION
WDW TODAY PODCAST

Following the sail away party, we had a small wine and cheese reception in the Walt Suite. Matt Hochberg and Mike Newell from the WDWToday podcast are on the MouseFest cruise. While the wine and cheese reception was going on, they guys were in the sitting room recording the first of several podcasts from the Disney Wonder.

DINNER

It’s become a tradition for Linda and I to try and arrange our dinner table with the Solo MouseFest Cruisers and it’s always enjoyable. Dinner tonight was in Animator’s Palate and the first time cruisers all enjoyed the show.

TABLES ARE TURNED

As you might imagine, Sunday was a VERY long day…. in a good way. Linda, Beci and I decided to head back to the cabin to unwind a bit before going to bed. While we were really tired, we were also very excited about our first day on the Wonder.

About 11:30pm the door bell rings (yes the suite has a door bell). Beci answered it and in walked two cast members with a large box wrapped in pink tissue paper. It was for me. I was shocked! There was a card with a short message and NO signature. The tables were turned on me as I’m usually the one doing the behind the scenes magic and now, someone has sprinkled ME with pixie dust!!

Inside the box was a really cool Disney canvas sport bag, but wait… my name is embroidered on it!!!!!! Oh my gosh. Plus, it was REALLY heavy. Inside the bag were about 3 dozen pink bears with pink ribbons.

I started to cry and then of course, all 3 of us were. And then, I dug further into the bag and there was a 2nd bag, identical to mine, but this one had Linda’s name sewn on it. Oh my gosh….
