'Sullivan's Crossing' Season 3 Premiere First Look Photos Reveal 'Challenges' Ahead and Romances Heating Up (Exclusive)
It's almost time to return to the Crossing for the summer. Parade has your first-look at the premiere episode of Sullivan's Crossing, which airs on Wednesday, May 14. What can fans expect? Well, while romances are heating up, they also come with their fair share of challenges. 🎬 🎬 At the end of season 2, Maggie Sullivan (Morgan Kohan) confessed her love to Cal Jones (Chad Michael Murray), but the first episode of Season 3, titled "New Beginnings," finds her trying "to embrace her new life at the Crossing as she struggles to move past the loss she suffered the night of the diner fire." Related: It's unclear if the loss that the synopsis is referring to is about the diner, her father's near-brush with death, or if the stress of it all caused Maggie to lose the baby, which many fans have theorized may happen if the series wants to give Cal and Maggie's romance a fair shot. Maggie has officially left behind her adrenaline-filled life in the OR in Boston and moved to Nova Scotia to follow her heart, where she'll help run the Outpost with her father and "make Sullivan's Crossing her home," which is evident in the photos as she sits on her childhood bed with Sully (Scott Patterson) smiling over her permanent decision. "Though she wants to finally take her relationship with Cal to the next level, she finds herself struggling to connect with him due to her loss," the season description notes, as we see the newly-minted couple having a heart-to-heart while sipping lemonade on the front porch. The challenges aren't just limited to Maggie, as Edna (Andrea Menard) and Frank (Tom Jackson) make some much-needed changes at the store that are "rubbing certain people the wrong way." As for romances heating up, it extends past Maggie and Cal as "bestselling author, Helen (Kate Vernon), comes to the Crossing to finish her new book" and crosses paths with Sully. By the second episode, "Sully sees Helen in a new light as they begin to bond over their mutual love of birdwatching, but their trip into the forest takes a turn with a shocking discovery." Meanwhile, "Sydney (Lindura) and Rafe (Dakota Taylor) get caught in a compromising position by Rafe's new boss," the synopsis also states, as the photos show the duo packing on the PDA after they finally admitted their feelings for each other. Elsewhere in episode 2, "Frank and Edna prepare for the arrival of Frank's cousin, and Lola (Amalia Williamson) has an awkward run-in with a handsome stranger (Joel Oulette) on a girls' night out." Sullivan's Crossing Season 3 premieres Wednesday, May 14 @ 8/7c on The CW. Next,

A beginner's guide to drinking around EPCOT at Disney World
A beginner's guide to drinking around EPCOT at Disney World 'Only for Adults' is a six-part series showcasing the best experiences and destinations tailored for adults seeking tranquility, adventure and indulgence. If you'd like to contribute to our future reporting and share your experience as a source, you can click here to fill out this quick form. Walt Disney World fans have strong feelings about EPCOT's World Showcase: namely, whether to start in Mexico or Canada, coming from the front of the park. A deciding factor can be what you're in the mood for, if you're eating and drinking around the world, a popular activity among adults. My extended family and I recently took on the informal challenge while celebrating my son's 21st birthday, among other milestones. Here's what fellow guests should know about drinking around the world. Mom-son trips What happens when you bring your son on an adults-only vacation Can you drink around the world at EPCOT? Yes. Each of the countries represented in EPCOT's World Showcase offers a bevy of food and drinks reflecting their region, from margaritas in Mexico to sake in Japan. Non-alcoholic offerings range from mocktails to bubble tea. Festival booths offer additional treats much of the year. Monorail crawl: Eat, drink your way around iconic Disney World resorts with this monorail crawl What are the rules for the EPCOT drinking challenge? Guests typically drink one alcoholic beverage in each country, but it's an unofficial activity, so you can do whatever you're comfortable with. I'm not a big drinker and I'm cheap, so I like sharing drinks to save money and limit my intake. I also like to share snacks while eating around the world. Guests must be at least 21 to drink alcohol and should carry their government-issued IDs for proof. It's also worth noting that unsafe, illegal, disruptive or offensive behavior is against Disney World resort rules. How many stops are there in EPCOT drinking around the world? There are usually 11 stops, one for each country, but guests may also choose to stop in places like the African-inspired Refreshment Outpost or freestanding festival booths. We started our challenge with a big meal at Biergarten in Germany, where my son had a beer and I had a glass of wine with our lunch. Even though we paced ourselves, we wound up skipping drinks in the UK, Mexico, Norway and China and still felt like we had plenty. What are the 11 EPCOT countries? From left to right, coming from the front of the park, they are: Mexico Norway China Germany America Italy Japan Morocco France United Kingdom Canada How many hours does it take to drink around the world at EPCOT? It can take as little or as long as you'd like, but guests should plan for at least three to four hours to explore each pavilion leisurely. Looking around at the ornately detailed decor, chatting with cultural representatives, enjoying live musical performances, and making time for attractions like Reflections of China and Gran Fiesta Tour Starring the Three Caballeros (reopening March 15) are all part of what makes World Showcase so special. How much does it cost to drink around the World at EPCOT? Eating and drinking around the world can get expensive. The average price of our drinks was around $14, excluding tax and tips. We spent over $200 on my son alone, on top of the park ticket. Is there still free Coke at EPCOT? Yes, but you won't find it in World Showcase. Guests can sample Coca-Cola beverages from around the world at Club Cool, right across from Connections Cafe in World Celebration, toward the front of the park. One thing guests can and should get for free around World Showcase is ice water, available anywhere dispensed sodas are sold. It's important to stay hydrated any time you visit Disney World, but especially if alcohol is involved.
