We spent our final full day at Epcot and of all the parks we went to, this one was my least favorite. Next time we go to Disney World we’ll skip Epcot and try out Animal Kingdom. If you’ve never been to Epcot it’s divided up into different countries which make up the World Showcase. Overall Epcot was a lot of walking and not a whole lot of rides.  Before heading to the park we enjoyed some Mickey Mouse waffles for breakfast and Ben took a little dip in the pool while we waited for J to finish getting ready.

Magic Kingdom was by far my favorite of the 3 parks we went to. The fall decorations were out and there wasn’t a cloud in the sky. We made our way to main street and before our eyes there it was.

Since Chef Mickey’s is a character meal it’s going to be more…

Buckle in, this is a long post. We were in Disney for 5 days from November 1st to November 5th. I was a little worried about how Ben would do on the plane ride, but the excitment of it and the activities I packed kept him pretty occupied. We had a direct flight and our plane left in the…
