Epcot!

Spring break would be the reason for the delays in postings, and there will definitely be a post on spring break, as we had just a wonderful week! 

Our fourth park to visit at Disney was Epcot.  I had never been to Epcot before until 2012, when we went on our very first Disney trip as a family.  I love this park!  There are so many wonderful things to see, and we always manage to find lots of characters here, so if you have little ones, it's a great place to fill up those autograph books! 

 As you can tell, the weather was just perfect for our day at Epcot.  

 And I just don't think the view of the ball ever gets old!  We had reservations at Akershus that morning, but we had time for a quick ride through the ball before breakfast! 

 One of my very favorite character meals is Akershus at Epcot.  I'll talk more about it in a later post, but this is the one where you get to meet so many of the princesses!  It's a must if you have little girls!

 We had a fast pass for the character spot at Epcot, which was so great because we got to meet so many characters! 

 We also got to meet Goofy! 

 I love this picture of our four with Minnie, so sweet! 

 Here's the whole group with Minnie! 

 Epcot doesn't really have too many rides, but our favorite by far is Soarin'! I love love love the smell of the landscape as you're Soarin' through the air.  So fun! 

 We got to meet Chip and Dale! Carter was really excited, as he had been looking forward to meeting them.  Story! Can you believe she is right in the middle of them all by herself?! We've come such a long way since our first trip! 

 I've already forgotten this cute bear's name! It will come to me.  I took these three cuties over to meet him.  

 And then, they got to walk him to his bear cave for a break! 

 I stood in line with these two girls for quite a while to meet Mulan.  She is one of Tilly's most favorites, so meeting her was a must! 

 And Belle, we really love her! I had never seen her in this costume before, only the yellow gown.  So pretty! 

 Alice was very cute and funny! Please notice Tilly! That girl! 

 Thanks to Uncle Cory, we were able to meet Jasmine and Aladdin.  We were one of the very last ones to get in to see them! 

 Each time we have been to Disney, Tinkerbell has come to see us while we sleep.  She leaves a little gift for the children, kind of like the Tooth Fairy.  She also cleans our room while we are gone each day! So fun!  One of the gifts she left the girls was a fan from China with their names written in Chinese characters.  She also left Carter a Chinese flag with his name written as well! Such a fun gift! 

 The fireworks at Epcot are really grand, too!  

One last picture of the big golf ball before we left the park! We opted to spend only one day at this park, but I could easily have spent two.  There are so many things to see and do!  Our family did sneak back over on our last day.  I'll share about that in my next post!
