Disney Parks
- Published on
We will be doing a more comprehensive WDW visit next may before our cruise (first time at new Fantasyland, Pandora, Toy Story Land and much more) but for this trip we decided to just have a day at Epcot to hopefully ride Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind and spend a day with some Orlando friends at the Food and Wine Festival.
We had an amazing day and we can't wait to get back in a few short months.

Hello gorgeous, it's been a long time!
We're tired, almost ready to go home, but not before an amazing day at one of our favorite theme parks ever!
While we were waiting for the rest of our crew to arrive (and our Guardians time) we had some fun in Future World (is it still called that?). I think we missed 2 versions of this, but we loved the current version.
For two special people! You know who you are.
I still freaking love this ride. Orange FTW!
Also, will make no apologies for loving this too!
Granted, our first trip to Epcot was in 2006 so we don't know any better. =)
Despite a lot of walls everywhere, the park still looks amazing!
Good Nemo! I will be taking no questions.
OMG it's happening!
Thought the queue was just ... ok.
Loved the model though! The pre-shows were fun although I will say it was obvious Rocket wasn't Bradley Cooper and it was a bit distracting. Anybody else feel that way?
This coaster currently sits at #5 on my list (out of 336 coasters). It's THAT good.
Only 50th statue we saw all day, granted, we weren't really looking. Lol.
Saturday + late October + Food and Wine = Crowds. But they were manageable and most of the lines moved very quickly.
This means you!!
I wonder how many of these they actually sell ...
This was empty when we boarded Gran Fiesta, and was packed when we got off.
I freaking love this ride
Alright, let's get some food in our belly's!!
I absolutely loved this!
Potatoes and Cheese and Bread, what's not to like?
Potatoes and Cheese and Ham, what's not to like
Apples and ... well, you know where I'm going.
Wonder what we could find in here?
I'm not even exaggerating when I say this was the best cookie I've ever had in my life.
This wasn't too bad either, but I only got one bite. Kristi wasn't sharing, I wasn't either. =)
We did Lightning Lane+ for the day, it definitely wasn't worth it. We essentially paid $22 to ride Frozen. We enjoyed it, but not THAT much.
Yes, we're the nerds who come from CA and buy hats and ears.
Really should have been called Olaf's Adventure, not that we have a problem with that.
Those barges aren't THAT bad
Gnocchi
And some frozen thing
After frozen we caught up with our crew for some beers in the UK
Take your pick!
This is why you wear a colorful shirt to Food and Wine, I didn't spill though!
Story Time ... there was some "influencer" type person trying to get the perfect phone booth pose for about 10 minutes, and yelling at either her BF or "Friendzone Friend" (most likely). Steve and I walked up and got this in 1 take.
At your service!
This was fantastic!
I thought the shrimp was just ok, the couscous was actually my favorite part
Oh Canada, why are you so yummy?
The most beautiful pavilion IMO
Lots of apple treats inside!
Wanted to see the show but this was ok too!
Some frozen vegan thing, not too shabby
Living with the Land!
Our crew, a lot of FL Team Park Journey!
You either love this ride, or you don't love awesome rides
Epcot's Mullet
Epcot NFT's > HHN NFT's
Time for some more food, the Mac and Cheese was just "ok"
The Fry Flight was a hit. I'm not usually a fan of sweet potato fries but I enjoyed these.
First time on Test Track 2.0!!
Or not. We got walked off right at the seatbelt check. Too bad, our vehicle was amazing!
Time to start saying our goodbye's to dear friends and to an amazing park
Until next May Epcot. We love you!
