I have actually been to Epcot during the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival and it is amazing!

You might be asking yourself Izzy, what is the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival? The Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival is an event where you will see some crazy good gardening work that makes plants look like Disney characters!

There will be 17 Outdoor Kitchens. Those are food booths that have Festival themed food and drinks.

Entertainment this year will include Jammin’ Gardeners at the Canada Mill Stage, Voices of Liberty at the America Gardens Theater, Mariachi Cobre who will also be at the America Gardens Theater, and a pianist in the World Showcase.

The Spike’s Pollen Nation Exploration is coming back this year! Spike, the Disney honeybee, has been pollinating all around the festivals and you can follow Spike’s trail. You can buy a map and stickers for $7.99 and fill the map while you search for which plants Spike has pollinated. Once your done, you can go to Disney Traders or World Traveler for a special prize!

Starting March 19, 2021 the Egg-Stravaganza Scavenger Hunt will start. You can buy a map and stickers for $7.99 and look for Disney character eggs all throughout the World Showcase. When you’re done don’t forget to go to Disney Traders for a special surprise!

The Goodness Garden Butterfly House Presented by GoGo Squeez will let you visit butterflies.

Also, the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival has special Festival merchandise so be sure to check that out.

I hope this guide helped you learn more about the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival!

Live Action Aladdin Review

Last year in March I watched the live action movie Aladdin in the movie theaters and when it was put on Disney+ I decided to watch it again!

I really enjoyed this movie and one of my favorite parts about the movie is how when Aladdin is in the streets of Agrabah it looks and feels like you are in the Morocco pavilion in Epcot!

Another thing I really like about this movie is the genie. The genie is really funny and I like that he has a happily ever after in the end of the movie to.

What age group do I recommend this movie to? Honestly I think anyone can watch this movie. I don’t think it matters what age you are because if you like musicals, fantasy, adventure, or romance then you will enjoy this movie!

This movie gets 5 Mickey Bars!

Star Wars: A Galaxy Far, Far Away

Are you looking for a Star Wars show where you can see your favorite Star Wars characters up close? Well, look no further!

Star Wars: A Galaxy Far, Far Away is located in Hollywood Studios and is a show outside. Star Wars: A Galaxy Far, Far Away shows you scenes from different Star Wars movies.

Different characters from Star Wars walk up on the stage too such as C3PO, R2D2, Darth Maul, Chewbacca, Boba Fett, Darth Vader, Stormtroopers, Kylo Ren, Captain Phasma, First Order Stormtroopers, BB8, and Rey. (Rey was not yet in the show yet when I took the video down below.)

My favorite part of the show is when the different Star Wars characters go on the stage because it feels like you’re in Star Wars with them.

My advice is to go to the show very early because it gets crowded before the show when people are taking spots to stand. Do not be late for Star Wars: A Galaxy Far, Far Away or else you will end up in the back with a tall person in front of you. If you remember this advice you will enjoy the show!

Kylo Ren, Captain Phasma and First Order Stormtroopers!

A Beginner’s Guide to the World Showcase: Spotlight on China

China is a pavilion that looks amazing! China has footbridges, bamboo, small waterfalls, and ponds that can help you relax with calming music. Overall the China pavilion is one of the better looking pavilions.

Food: China has a restaurant and a cafe. The last time we ate in the China pavilion we went to Nine Dragons Restaurant. I had Salt and Pepper Shrimp and a strawberry smoothie. The food and the smoothie were both really good! The other restaurant is called The Lotus Blossom Cafe. This is a quick service restaurant, but I have never eaten there.

Shopping: Did you know House of Good Fortune is one of the biggest shopping stores in the pavilions? Inside the store are jade carvings, adorable stuffed animal pandas, Chinese lanterns, pieces of crystals, and much more! Hint! The kidcot for your World Showcase passport is in House of Good Fortune.

The Jeweled Dragon Acrobats are a lot of fun!

Entertainment: China has a show called Reflections of China. It is a 360 Circle-Vision show in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest. The film shows images of many monuments in China. There is no seating but there is a railing for you to hang on to. You can also take a picture with Mulan during the day. The Jeweled Dragon Acrobats is a live show performed by kids. It is a must see!

Don’t forget to get your passport stamped!

My Favorite Restaurant at Epcot

Epcot has the most restaurants to choose from, but my favorite restaurant at Epcot is Garden Grill. The restaurant is in the Land Pavilion and the restaurant even moves! In the background you can see scenes from the Living with the Land ride.

Notice Living with the Land is behind us.

At breakfast, for kids they serve Mickey waffles. For adults there are eggs, bacon, sausage, potato barrels (tater tots), fruit and a cinnamon roll sticky bun. My favorite is the cinnamon roll sticky bun. They bring all the food to your table. If you go to Garden Grill really early for breakfast, they sometimes let you on Soarin’ Around the World early so you don’t have to wait in a long line!

For lunch and dinner they have lots of foods including salad, turkey, pot roast, macaroni & cheese, french fries and vegetables. Best part is the dessert: berry short cake with whip cream! You also get to meet characters. Mickey, Pluto, Chip and Dale all come to your table.
