Love the shot glasses!!!! Love that you have gone to so many HRC!!!!! DH and I love them as well! He collects Pilsnars and I collect the Hurricanes. We don't have as many as you do though. lol. Haven't been to as many. I try to find them on our travels and stop at them when we can. A long time ago we were going to try to travel all over the states just to visit them all, yeah, that never happened but it was a nice dream for a while.....lol.

Same with Punxsutawney! I LOVE Groundhog Day, the movie, but also the holiday. But I love the holiday because of the movie. We used to talk about going to Punxsutawney for GHD festivaties, yeah that never happened either, but it was nice to dream about the trip. I bet the festivaties are awesome!

So I have 2 questions.....Of all the Mickey's in the parks and in the cartoons which Mickey is your favorite and why? And when did you realize that you had a love for Disney? Did someone give you something Disney, you saw a movie, went to a park, ect.....

Thanks for sharing!!!!

Thank you. I have been to most of the HRC locations that I have shot glasses for but not all. My brother bought some of them for me. I also went to the HRC in Munich but didn't buy a shot glass because I thought my brother had bought one for me on this last visit. I got home to find out I didn't have one.

Now to answer your questions:

#1 - I think my favorite is Mickey at the Town Hall meet and greet area in MK. He just looks so dashing in his tux and bow tie.

#2 - My realization is pretty recent. I had been to the MK twice when I was younger and loved it. I went back on November 2010 (after being away for close to 30 years). My friends asked me if I was going to join them the next year. I said I would consider it but wasn't making any committments. In January 2011, I started making lists of things I wanted to do on the next trip. I realized then I was hooked.

Joann! I saw a shot glass yesterday at Epcot that you TOTALLY need! (Actually, I saw several. Shot glasses were on my brain yesterday for some reason.) Anyway, it looked like your WDW red retro one above, but it's BLUE, with the retro Epcot Center look. I'm not sure that I'm being very nice by telling you, since I didn't actually buy it for you...

It was in MouseGears, and I thought of you though. Near where we met. Does that count for something? Anything?

Thank you. It does count for something. Although you would have scored more points if you bought it for me. Kidding. I'll have to look for it in November.

JoAnn, got your shot glass, PM me your address and it will be on its way! (as soon as we get home).
