DisneyWorld

Yesterday afternoon Margaret & I drove to Epcot with friends Linda & Berch, to enjoy the location and have dinner at the Moroccan restaurant.

When we arrived the park seemed happily quiet and we did a “walk on” to Spaceship Earth! After dinner we rode Ratatouille (which did have a long wait), and both Living With The Land and Soarin’ (where were both near walk-on). We also got VERY wet with a heavy ten minute storm! By the time we’d done Soarin’ it was almost 9pm so we stayed for the fireworks. Photos of course:

While visiting Epcot yesterday we also took the monorail over to the Magic Kingdom resort area and checked out the annual chocolate easter egg display at the Grand Floridian resort – the first one we saw was Alice In Wonderland, and was definitely the favorite! The last two photos are of an “in progress” design …

We then took the monorail to the Contemporary resort where there were a few more Easter Eggs to see:

We’ve not seen the fireworks at Epcot since 2017(!) and they’ve been completely redesigned now to more of a water fountain show with some added fireworks … the water is in the middle of the World Showcase lake and it’s very low and difficult to see unless you have a perfect viewing position. The sound is more of a commentary than epic music, and to me a bit disappointing.

But I did get some nice photos:

We also got our first look at the Flower Show with its many “topiary” characters …
