Epcot

 

More Disney pictures?  Crazy, I know.  Just bear with me… I’ve got to get these done before I move on!

We all went picture crazy at Epcot…  so much to capture and a little different scenery than the typical Disney park… so it took me forever to go through, but definitely fun to remember.

Can you believe we didn’t have a Mike ‘Sasha’ pose until now?  I think Mike gives Epcot a thumbs up.

        

In Canada we enjoyed the beautiful scenery, made human totem poles, watched a 360 degree screen movie with Martin Short, tried on animal hats and made ourselves right at home.

 

In the United Kingdom we took pictures with Alice in Wonderland and ate fish and chips for lunch. While eating, Alice walked by and we waved.  Missing out on his own picture, Mike quickly jumped up to ask for a private photo shoot.  Alice’s escort said, “Sorry, she’ll be back later.” but when Alice looked into Mike’s dreamy eyes she said, “No, it’s ok.  We can take a picture.”  Nice one, Mike.

In France we gazed at the Eiffel Tower, Katie told me she wants to go to France (she’s said that numerous times since Chris and I went), and took pictures with Belle and the Beast.  Mike jumped in line too, but after a picture with them both… he kindly asked the Beast to step out of the picture.  It was so funny that I just couldn’t crop Beast standing out of the way on the side of the picture.  Mike scores again.

In hung out in Morocco for awhile… trying on hats, taking pictures, and watching Molly shake her jingling hips.

 

In Japan we stopped to listen to the drum show at the base of the pagoda.  Dan videoed us moving to the beat for the ‘music video’ that will someday come from all our video footage.

 

In Italy we took a breather and relaxed in the beautiful courtyard, enjoyed the architecture, and took pictures in front of the water fountain. I wished we could have eaten at my favorite Epcot restaurant – we’ve eaten there with great friends two different times –  but we were still full from lunch.  After the kids finished their masks we kept moving.

In Germany we entered the cute German town ready for Oktoberfest.

We checked out the toy store, and took pictures of Snow White.  Here she is with her ‘seven dwarfs’… not hard to figure out who’s ‘Grumpy?’  Try to figure out the rest…

In China, the kids had their names written in Chinese on their masks, Scott picked up some Chinese candy and we made a mental note to have Chinese food for dinner!

In Norway the group went on Maelstrom, a Viking boat ride, and tried on Viking hats while Matthew and I stayed behind, ate and took pictures.  Thankfully he was just perfect on the trip.  He nursed a little here and there, hung out in the stroller, loved being held by Dad and did lots of smiling.  He just knew he was at the Happiest Place on Earth.

Megan was pretty darn happy herself.

We cruised through Mexico stopping for a minute to see Donald and wear some big sombreros.

Besides the World Showcase some of us did Mission: SPACE, Test Track, The seas with Nemo and Friends, and our favorite… Soarin’.  Tired and hungry we left the park at 6:00 and headed  straight to Pei Wei for dinner.  Table for 20 out on the patio… the perfect ending to an Epcot day.
