| Souvenirs This is a two-parter: Most of us have a favorite souvenir we've brought home from WDW. Which one is yours? Most of us have a favorite drinking vessel (mug) we've purchased at The World. You know the one. You smile every time you see it, and use it often. Which one do you have? |

| Re: Souvenirs My fav souvenier to bring back to everyone else is those little pop top tins with the candies in them. They make excellent pill boxes when the candy is gone, and they sell the boxes with a variety of characters on them, so there is bound to be one for everyone on your list! As for my fav beverage container...Yup, we bought root beer floats in Disneyland one year (1995!) and they came in these plastic tall mugs with Mickey all around the peramiter of the cup. They survived many dish washings, and are still going strong!       |

| Re: Souvenirs For my souvenir, it's actually one that my mom just got for me (arrived in the mail), but we were at WDW together. It's a snow globe, but it's of MK (has a BL ride on the top) and lots of MK rides all over it (Cinderella on her carousel horse, Peter Pan's ship, etc). There's even a monorail that goes around the bottom when the music plays!! For my drinking vessel, I bought (in the World of Disney) some Mickey Mouse plastic glasses that are frosted, but have the clear cutouts of Mickey's head. I use those every day and love them!!    |

| Re: Souvenirs My favorite souvenir from WDW is a handmade glass thimble that resembles a ladie's hat. I collect thimbles and I just love this one! I found it in the little glasswares booth in Adventureland at MK back in '98. I have 2 other thimbles from WDW also. Another glass one with a picture of the castle on it and one I bought last year at the shop in the Castle which is gold with little Mickey heads all over it. The only WDW mug I have is from CBR back in '98. We didn't buy any last year when we stayed at the Poly cause we were Concierge and already got free beverages.   |

| Re: Souvenirs Favorite souvenirs are Christmas ornaments - we typically pick up quite a few every year and they always bring back great memories when we trim our Christmas trees. Favorite drinking mug - any of the resort mugs we have purchased from all of our resort stays. |

| Re: Souvenirs My favorite souvineer has to be the black leather briefcase that I got several years ago. It has a silouette(sp?) of Mickey embossed on it. It is so beautiful that I hate to use it, but it was so expensive that I have to! My favorite mug is one from Fort Wilderness from long ago, at least 20 years ago. The Mickey on the side is dressed in buckskins but after so long and so many washings his outfit has faded to yellow. Still love it because it brings back many wonderful memories of my parents. |

| Re: Souvenirs Our fave souvenirs are the pictures we've had made by CMs in front of Epcot both times we were there together. They are matted and framed in our breakfast room and I look at them all the time! We plan on doing one on every trip. No mugs, though! All we have is a little plastic cup that I bought a Coke in, but I can't find it! [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] |

| Re: Souvenirs My favorite souvenir is a 100 years of Magic sweatshirt - it is the most comfy sweatshirt I have ever owned! My favorite souvenir to collect are magnets - I get one from everywhere I go. I've tried to encourage my DDs to pick sometime like that to collect from vacations like thimbles, spoons, or something. |

| Re: Souvenirs I dont know if I can pick just one! I think it would have to be the Mickey socerer hat my DS purchased...every now and then it finds its way off the shelf on to one of my childrens heads...I have to smile everytime. Drinking vessel...hmmm....my favorite would have to be either my POC mug or my epcot spaceship earth one....they are both very cool. |

| Re: Souvenirs My favorite souvenir is my Mickey wallet. Everytime I take it out to pay for something I get comments! My favorite drinking vessel actually came from DL - it is plastic with Mickey all around it thinking "There is so much to do here!". I don't remember what came in it but I love [img]graemlins/love.gif[/img] it! |
