Hi Beautiful Humans!
Me again!
hope everyone has a fabulous Easter and bank holiday with family, friends and loved ones.
Today i'm going to be blogging about mine and Dans experience and day at Epcot!
I can not even put into words just hope beautiful this place is!

We were there at the beginning of March, so of course it was the Flower and Garden Festival, and let me tell you, it was INCREDIBLE!
As you may, or may not know- Epcot is famous for its big golf ball like staple feature as you first enter the park.
I know this sounds silly, but even though it looks like a golf ball, its actually quite beautiful up close and inside of it, is an amazing ride called 'spaceship earth'. Its a very slow moving journey through the evolution of man, and how over time we evolved as a species. It is incredible the way they use graphics, art and stunning visuals to take you inside this giant ball, and manage to bring you back down again without realising!
One of the first things we did, was meet Joy and Sadness at the character spot!
They were so lovely, and fun and just everything you expect them to be. Its amazing walking inside and queuing up to see them, as you walk inside it's like you are standing in the middle of memory headquarters!

They celebrated the fact that me and Dan had gotten engaged, and even stopped to admire my ring. They were the cutest!
We then got to ride 'Living With The land' where you get to see all the vegetables, plants and animals they look after at Epcot. It's very interesting to see, and learn about all the different food they grow there! also about agriculture and what it takes to keep up such high demands for food.
It's super educational and informative, and definitely gives you a new appreciation for life.
And of course, we rode The seas with Nemo and friends, anyone who is a fan of The films, should most definitely check it out- especially if you have little ones too! It follows Nemo, Dory, Marlin and all his friends in a search to find Nemo!
Also, where the ride is situated, at 'The Seas With Nemo And Friends' There is real love fish to see! and you can even experience Turtle Talk with crush! where you can have a conversation with the 400 year old turtle, in his own talk show themed attraction!


After that we experienced a flight like no other you will ever experience in your life!
We took a flight on Soarin' an attraction that takes you soaring above the clouds and around the world, for a experience you'll never forget. Its thrilling but relaxing at the same time- I can't recomend it enough if you haven't already done it- you need to!

THE WORLD SHOWCASE
The world showcase, is made up of a whopping 12 countries located around the world showcase lagoon! its a beautifully accurate portrayal of countries you've always wanted to go to, but haven't yet! and at Epcot you feel like you've visited all 12 in one day! it is breathtaking!

Everything about the countries, has everything you could want- as if you were actually visiting there. Food, merchandise and ever characters! There is a phenomenal amount of research that goes into creating these countries, and it is so exciting and inspiring to see the amount of time, hard work and expertise that go into every single small detail

You can meet Alice in the United Kingdom!
Princess Jasmin in Morocco
And even Princess Belle in France!

Meeting Mulan In China, was a highlight for me, as i love her! i think she's an amazing Princess with so much to learn from

We also, had our picture taken in france, and even had a crepe with Ice cream!

And of course we met Anna And Elsa at their Summerhaus in Norway!

Of course, as it was the Flower and Garden Festival, i will doing a separate blog post on that and i have some amazing pictures too! it was that beautiful it does indeed most definitely deserve its own blog post!
In the evening, the lights get dimmed for the spectacular,
'illuminations: reflections of earth'
Its a beautiful firework display, that is truly breathtaking, humbling and so emotive at the same time. Its message about the strength of humanity is touching and something i will personally never forget! i won't give away too much, if you've never seen it before, but the display it held around the world showcase and can be viewed from any of the countries around the world.

The overall experience of Epcot is culture, education and growth. You feel like you are growing as the day goes on, the more you see, the more you learn.
With cast members from the country that they actually work in at disneyworld, you feel like you are immersed in the magic of the world, and yo begin to believe in all things culture! You learn so much about others and the world in such a humbling way. You come out of Epcot a whole different person!
You leave, a world traveller!
