    Decided this morning to see if there were any openings for any of the Special Experiences& to my surprise I got into 3. The 4pm Wine/Beverage Seminar, the 5pm Culinary Demonstration & 6pm Mixology Seminar which is new this yr. Each offering was 45 min with a grand total of $33.

    By Disney standards this was a real bargain. Each seminar offered instructions & samples. Actually sample isn't an accurate word for the Mixology Seminar...we received 3 full sized cocktails & they weren't light on the spirits either.

    It was most enjoyable as was the rest of the evening. It rained like a son-of-a-gun but armed with my DCA blue poncho & an umbrella the only thing that got wet was my feet. So while most everyone else was ducking under any cover they could find...I walked up to any kiosk I wanted to try with little to no wait. I enjoyed using the wristband gift card it made all my transactions quick & easy.

    Well there you have it I had a great day & esp enjoyed Jon Secada 5 rows from the stage again due to the weather. Anxious to see if tomorrow can live up to today.

    So any tickets/day of sales for the demonstrations/seminars comes though me (or my other 2 Co-CMs)
