Around the World in 8 Hours...







(Orlando, FL: 10 Feb 2010) In a one day excursion through Disney's Epcot Center we toured UK, Morocco, Italy, Norway, Canada, Germany, China, Mexico, Japan, France, and of course the USA. A Future World also exists in Epcot with venues for Land, Sea, and Space among others. It was a balmy 56 degrees in Central Florida with a gusty 10-15 mph wind. We lunched in France and then predictably had dinner in America at the Liberty Inn. One of our favorite attractions was The Sea with Nemo and Friends where we learned to talk Turtle with Crush the "dude" talking cartoon turtle from the movie Finding Nemo. The country attractions were cool; Canada was a hit with a 360 degree film showing the incredible beauty of our northern neighbor narrated by Martin Short. We enjoyed a cappella singers in the America Adventure building and watched amazing Chinese acrobats in the China pavilion.
A really cool nice touch of detail that only Disney could pull off; all the workers in each of the countries were not only in country costume, but had authentic accents. Imported ambiance.
