Epcot International Festival of the Arts has returned to Disney for the second year. Similar to the ever-popular International Food & Wine Festival, the Festival of the Arts has a variety of savory and sweet treats throughout the park along with artistic displays and interactive exhibits. Here are my Top 10 favorites at Epcot’s Festival of the Arts: *Warning: This post may induce a sugar coma* Trio of Savory Croissant Doughnuts: Whipped Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs Cheese with Fresh…
For many first time visitors to the Town of Celebration, they aren’t quite sure what to make of it. White picket fences, perfectly manicured lawns, families on evening bike rides, it sounds ideal, doesn’t it? If you like living on a movie set, or as many refer to it, The Stepford Wives. You have to remember though, the Town of Celebration was built by the Walt Disney World Company back in the 90’s, and what is Disney if not the…
In my last post, I listed some of my favorite fall events and festivities in Orlando, one of them being Epcot International Food and Wine Festival. If you’ve been to this event, or just attempted to eat and drink around the world, you probably noticed how popular it is among the bachelor and bachelorette parties. Well, I was one of those a few weeks ago. Seems like nowadays you can’t go to Epcot Food and Wine without making some sort…
What does Fall mean to me? Crisp air, falling leaves and cozy blankets. Unfortunately, Florida doesn’t lend itself to these luxuries very often. In fact, the first Florida “fall front” blew through earlier this week and the temperatures finally fell from the high 90’s to low 80’s (we’re even going to drop to 70’s next week!!!!!). So, while I would love to believe we would have a cool fall season, it likely won’t happen, so fall to me includes theme…
You know it’s October in Orlando when all your friends Facebook check-ins are at Epcot Food and Wine Festival. It’s where every local spends their weekends, and their paychecks. It doesn’t matter how crowded, how hot or how many hours it takes to find your car at the end of the day, every one is going to do it. Based on my Facebook, at least 75% of my friends are at Epcot today and a few more headed there now. After I finish…
When you’re a Floridian, there are certain signs fall is here. No, it’s not the crisp air or fallen leaves, but rather the Halloween festivities at the theme parks. Yep, I knew summer was almost at it’s end when I got home from work, on what seemed to be a regular Friday, and changed into my first Halloween costume of the season. I could easy be a character from “A Bug’s Life” which made it perfectly fitting for trick-or-treating at…
Disney’s done it again…they’ve added a little more magic to my life. It all began on a beautiful morning, beneath the warm Florida sun. I climbed into the backseat of a car, but not just any car, an Amphicar. You may be wondering, what’s an Amphicar. Well, a car-boat would probably be the best way to describe it. Amphicars are able to drive on land and float in water. About 4,000 of these vehicles were manufactured back in the 1960’s…
