I asked my g-friend, Cindy last night , "Whats next once the Happiest Celebration On Earth ends in November " / she said "WDW's ( MK) 35th birthday celebration . I really hope they do not make the castle pink again . :p:

[PrincessHeather]

Unfortunately on my honeymoon, we had the "pleasure" of seeing the awful castle cake. I agree, no pink castle! :)

[Johnie]

I'm gonna be 35 in Oct :sigh:

[PrincessHeather]

Would you like a pink castle cake? :)

[Tinker]

Johnie you and the MK share a birthday . How cool is that !
Princess Heather, I didn't have the displeasure of seeing the pink castle, but I saw pics and heard about it here .

[PrincessHeather]

Trust me, it's nothing like the bling bling castle that is there now. I hope they keep the gold characters on after the celebration.

[Tinker]

:iagree:

[Johnie]

MK and I do share a birthday :D And NO I do not want a pink cake!

[PaulaK]

I'm gonna be 35 in Oct :sigh:

you're lucky, i'll be 35 in 6 weeks :hehe: 40's are the new 30's so we'll be fine Johnie :lol:

[Tinker]

MK and I do share a birthday :D And NO I do not want a pink cake!:lol: from what I've seen and read, I don't blame you Johnie . IM me , would you please , want to ask you something . thanks

[2JsMom]

Ooooh, come on Johnie...I made a castle cake for dd's 5th birthday, but it wasn't pink... I could add a little food coloring though!

[Tinker]

wait, i thought 50 was the new 30's take 10 years back Paula

[PaulaK]

Thanks Deb, does that mean we're teenagers Johnie? :wink: not sure i'd wish that on anyone :lol:


Deb, isn't there some kind of Epcot anniversary this year or next too?

[Johnie]

you're lucky, i'll be 35 in 6 weeks :hehe: 40's are the new 30's so we'll be fine Johnie :lol:


so we're really in our 20's?

[d_dreamer]

Yup, we are all in our twenties :wink:

[Dawn]

35??!!!

Why you're just a young whippersnapper. :shrug:

[MPHARJ]

I'll be 35 soon too in August! So I am right there with ya Johnie and Paula.

[JuniorMickey]

Isn't next year Epcot's 25th? I would think that something would be done for that. MK's 35th would be 2006 so if they were going to do it, I would think that it would already be done.

[Tinker]

Than perhaps your right, JM . Unless they incorporate the 35th b-day of MK and 25th anniversary of Epcot together . I was just asking out of being curious . Since, Cindy's a CM, I thought she may know . Now that you mentioned this, perhaps it is a rumor . :D

[josh.p.]

I thought the 25th birthday was in 1997?
so that would make the 35th birthday in 2007?
anyway...
is this the castle you where talking about

[PrincessHeather]

I was married in October 1997 and the castle cake was there so you may be right :)

[PrincessHeather]

Bad castle! I have to go to my happy place now :)

[Tinker]

Ok, hold up, time out :lol: did MK not open in 1971 ? OMG, that castle ! Yuck !

[d_dreamer]

The 25th of Epcot is this year, it opened in 1981.

[JuniorMickey]

Epcot opened in '82. MK was 71

[d_dreamer]

Hmm.. I thought I heard that it opened 10 years after MK

[JuniorMickey]

October 1, 1971 Opening day for Walt Disney World Vacation Kingdom
October 1, 1982 Epcot Grand Opening
May 1, 1989 Disney-MGM Studios opens
June 1, 1989 Typhoon Lagoon & Pleasure Island open
April 1, 1995 Blizzard Beach water adventure park opens
April 22, 1998 Disney's Animal Kingdom opens

[d_dreamer]

wow I really need to readjust my timeline... I thought AK opened in 1996...

[uscwest]

That cake was HORRENDOUS. Heaven forbid they do that again. And oh to be 35 again. :wink:

[Rosie0610]

I kinda liked the cake. After going so many times it was nice to see something new. But if I was my first time I might've been upset.

[Johnie]

Me and MK are the same age....well it's 9 days older than me. So it was definately 1971 that it opened.

[JuniorMickey]

The cake was there during my Grad Nite. I was not a happy camper

[d_dreamer]

aww! That is a bummer!

I think the cake would be good if it was an actual cake, about 18 inches high :D

[DisneyMad]

October 1, 1982 Epcot Grand Opening


That'll make Epcots 25th birthday October 1st, 2007 - And given that the year of a million dreams starts this October, is it too soon to speculate that late 07 / summer 08 will be an Epcot centered celebration?

[minnie17_6]

the first i went to Disney would of been 1996 and it was an october and the castle was decorated as a cake and i think it must have been MK being open for 25 years ..cause in the parade they would sing 25 years of disney magic :shrug:

Here it is when they had there 25th anniversary

[minnie17_6]

yes that was it lol ....in my opinion i thought it was a bit much :lol: but i suppose other people like it . i prefer to see the castle just normal

[d_dreamer]

this is pretty random, but has anyone seen the DL 10th anniversary special where the dancing cakes come out and sing "Ten years of fantasy, ten years of fun..."?

[2JsMom]

Sounds pretty scary :afraid:

[d_dreamer]

it gets stuck in your head worst than that phil collins song that's in every single parade now, "this is our family time! This is our happy to be time" ugh. I hate it.
