Our Perfect Day at Epcot

In our last post, we talked about our perfect day at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Today, we have for you, what we would see, eat, and do on our perfect day at Epcot!

For those of you that don’t know, Epcot is my favorite Walt Disney World theme park. I love walking around World Showcase and seeing different cultures from around the world represented. I love all of the global cuisine that is available throughout World Showcase! And I’m excited for all of the changes that are coming to Epcot over the next few years.

My perfect day at Epcot would definitely take place during one of Epcot’s festivals that take place throughout the year. At this very moment, the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival is taking place, and if all goes as planned, our next trip to the Walt Disney World Resort will be during this festival. With that said, I’ll share our perfect day at Epcot during the International Flower and Garden Festival with the current festival menu items I would choose.

Since Epcot opens later than the other three parks, at least at the moment, I would start my day at a more relaxed pace than on other days. I would try to get to the park at around 10 – 10:15 for an 11am park opening.

Snapping photos along the way, I would make my way to Test Track first. This is Christian’s favorite ride at Epcot, and I’m pretty sure it’s his favorite in all of Disney World. After a ride on Test Track, we would ride Mission: Space since it’s so close by. From there, we would make our way into World Showcase, probably towards Regal Eagle Smokehouse for lunch.

After that, we’d explore World Showcase, taking photos, riding Gran Fiesta Tour, and enjoying Festival snacks.

After World Showcase, we’d be sure to try for a ride on Soarin’ if the wait time isn’t too long, While we’re in the Land Pavilion, we’d also ride Living with the Land. Can’t forget about Journey Into Imagination with Figment and The Seas with Nemo and Friends.

After that, we’d finish off Future World with Spaceship Earth.

During normal times, I’d love to finish the day with dinner at Garden Grill and fireworks. But for the time being, I’ll settle with walking around World Showcase as the sun goes down, and some more tasty Epcot food.

Based on the current Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival menus, these are the things that we would like to enjoy:

·        Toasted Pretzel Bread topped with Black Forest Ham and Melted Gruyère Cheese

·        Fried Cinnamon Roll Bites with Cream Cheese Frosting and Candied Bacon

·        Beignet Caramélisé, Fourré Crème Vanille, Glacé au Caramel Fleur de Sel: Caramelized Beignet Filled with Vanilla Cream and Glazed with Caramel Fleur de Sel

 

What would your perfect day at Epcot look like?!

We Used Genie+ for the First Time. What did we Think?!

Back in June my sister, Sharon, and I took a girls trip to Disney World! It was a fun trip, and for the first time since it came out, we used Genie+. Today, we're going to share our thoughts about the experience.  What is Genie+?!  Genie+ is the paid for "skip the standyby line" option that replaced Fastpass+. It debuted on October 1, 2021 on the first day of the 50th Anniversary Celebration. This is what the Walt Disney World website says about the service, " Use the Lightning Lane entrances offered through Disney Genie+ service and save time waiting in line. On average, Guests can enter 2 to 3 attractions or experiences per day using Lightning Lane entrances, if the first selection is made early in the day." There is also a second option, Individual Attraction Selection. The Disney World site says, " You may also purchase individual—or à la carte—Lightning Lane entry selections for specific attractions that aren’t offered through Disney Genie+ service. Pu

Dinner at Royal Court on the Disney Fantasy

We’ve mentioned more than a few times that each of the four Disney ships has three main dining rooms. All four ships have the fun Animator’s Palate that we talked about a couple of weeks ago, as well as a themed dining rooms on the Magic and Wonder (Rapunzel’s and Tiana’s) and Enchanted Garden on the Dream and Fantasy. We’ll talk about Enchanted Garden in our next Disney Cruise Line focused post! This week, though, we’re excited to talk about the third main dining room on the Disney Fantasy, Royal Court. Royal Court, like Royal Palace on the Dream, Triton’s on the Wonder, and Lumiere’s on the Magic is the most upscale of the three main dining rooms. Located right off the main lobby Royal Court is a grand dining room that celebrates Disney’s royal couples. Throughout the dining room there are mosaics of Disney Princess and their princes including Belle and Beast,  Jasmine and Aladdin, Tiana and Naveen, Cinderella and Prince Charming, Aurora and Phillip, Ariel and Eric, and Snow Wh
