<\/p>I only went on one ride (The American Adventure) at Epcot. I think that older kids might enjoy it, but I think my little ones would have been bored\/not able to appreciate the history that the ride covered. (The images were amazing though \u2013 it took me a few moments to realize that they weren\u2019t actual people!)\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

For me, the two highlights at Epcot were the Party for the Senses and IllumiNations:<\/p>\n

-Party for the Senses \u2013 Eat, Drink and Celebrate was excellent (especially for a \u201cfoodie\u201d like me!). There were more than 25 chefs from all over the world. They were serving samples of their top dishes at tasting stations as well as over 70 wines and beers. What was so ironic to me was that my favorite dish at the event was from a local (NYC) visiting chef \u2013 Bill Telepan of Telepan Restaurant<\/a> in NYC. (I had written about Bill and Telepan here back in May.)<\/p>\n

\u2013 IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth was also fun. We had a beautiful view of the pyrotechnic show. There was an Earth Globe floating across the water showing \u201cwonders\u201d of the seven continents on its curved LED screens. The music, lasers and cool breeze combined to make that night truly memorable. This was the best shot that I was able to take that night:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In any event, I would like to go back to Epcot one day. There are a lot of other attractions (and food items!) that I would like to try out.<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
