Today we started off by going shopping at Target..AGAIN.
Man you would think we have never been to a big box discount department store hey!
Anyways it paid off in cheap clothes!
We made a second stop at The Gap outlet as they had rocking cheap t-shirts in yummy colors and I wanted to stock up.
Afterwards we headed to DownTown Disney and made our first stop at The Pearl Factory.
My mom *loves* pearls and I really wanted to get her one. 
K was instructed to pick the ugliest, hairest oyster he could find in the barrel. They ring a big bell when the shell is being opened..fun!
The clerk opened it up and dug out the pearl!
She cleaned it up, measured it and estimated it's value..about 110.00 dollars! Cool hey!
We had it placed in a gold setting for my Mom and gave it to her when we got home..she *loves* it and wears it everyday. I
t is just perfect for her!
So we wandered around DTD and hit the shops..K bought 2 pounds of Jelly Belly's..which he ate in less than a week-piggy! Picked up a couple of souviners and hit the road.
We went to Epcot, road Spaceship Earth..the end is cool..neat to see the map with everyone on it. Not many people from our neck of the woods..lol!
More topiaries...
And that is IT for pics from today, my battery dies (gasp) in the camera..sigh.

He likes that everyone working there is from Canada and had a nice chat with one of the employees about how he should consider coming down to work for a year, would be a great experience for someone his age! So back to Le Cellier..this is the place for STEAK! It was delish..so yummy. Eveyrone who works there wears a name tag that states where they are from in Canada. Our waiter was shocked we knew how to pronounce Sault St. Marie!!! Guess we have an advantage over most of the guests..lol! Dale had a Kansas sized steak..it was freaking enormous! I ingulged in another *magical cocktail*..yum!
We stuck around to watch Illuminations afterwards, this is my favorite nighttime show..it is touching really!
We joined the masses and headed back to our resort, time to pack as we are moving to a new resort in the morning!
