Today we have decided to go to Epcot for a few hours for the Food & Wine Festival that ends on November 8, Sunday…Our day started out leisurely by waking up at 5:30am, the both of us, and staying up for a little bit then going back to bed…I slept in longer than Richard but I normally do…The thought for the day was where to eat a meal before going in to Epcot…The choice of the day was McD’s…The both of us got ready to head out for a while…We had our lunch and headed to the Epcot parking lot, the lot where all the rv’s park because our truck takes up 2 parking spaces…
The first place to hit is bag check…Open up all zippers on all bags…The security officer checks it, for the most part and tells you to have a nice day…Now its time to head to the Cast gate to go in…Our ID’s are inserted in to the machine and then our finger is up on the little green oval…What it does, no one knows…and off we go…
The first thing you see is the big wine glasses, the sign for the festival and a big wine bottle…The Epcot ball is the background of everything…Several pictures were taken by Richard and I…We carry our own cameras and then later on we get to see how many of the same shots we have…It’s pretty funny to see the shots that I have taken and see that Richard has taken the same thing…This is going to be a lazy, slow day for walking and taking pictures…It gives us time to look at disney pins worn around the cast members neck…The beautiful water fountain is our next destination stop…Music plays and the water just squirts upward in sprays and colors…It’s a beautiful sight to see…After getting all the pictures there, we head on towards World Showcase…
I just had to add my sweetie in to this blog…It’s fun to take some fun pictures of him…We had a great time, like always…
As you move past the water fountain and heading towards World Showcase, Epcot has been decorated in many ways to represent the Food & Wine Festival… Have you ever seen such large wine glasses and a large wine bottle…Poor Me More Wine…
Nothing like being in San Juan, Puerto Rico…Didn’t try any food here…Nothing didn’t look appetizing…so we moved on to our next country to see what food was appealing to try… Vienna, Austria…We tried the Paprika Beef Stew…It was very tasty and very small..
Richard just had to stop by New Orleans to pick up some Gumbo…but he couldn’t find the hot sauce…Poor guy…So he ate it with no “spice” to it and he even let me try a bite…It was okay…
Along the way around the world, we ran in to Mary Poppins in England…and we saw Princess Aurora in France and Snow White in Germany…
While going by France, Richard and I decided we wanted to sit and relax a bit so we thought we would get a drink and a pastry…Richard got the ham & cheese croissant and I got the chocolate cake…
Wouldn’t you know, Los Lobos was playing tonight at the America Gardens..The show started at 5:15pm and we were in the right place at the right time, well it was around 4pm but I wanted to sit and wait for the show to start… What we didn’t realize is that they sang the song to the Jungle Book, with Man cub and Baloo…Plus they sang La Bamba…Awesome time listening to them…
The Epcot ball at the end of the evening, when we decided to leave cause our feet were tired…The Epcot ball is shining well at about 7pm…Off to home and relax for the night…What a wonderful time in Epcot…
