Day 5: Epcot (I mean Ep-Pickle) - Part 1 - Video

Here we are driving into Epcot.  

For some reason, and I don't know how or why Holly decided it was called Ep-Pickle

Every time I would say Epcot, she would say, "oh do you mean Ep-Pickle?"

It was pretty cute.  We were super excited because today we were having lunch with Princesses.

At first I thought we might have trouble filling a whole day of Epcot into our schedule

But it turned out to be one of the funnest parks

Since we had some time for lunch we headed straight into Spaceship Earth

Since Holly did so well at Magic Kingdom I didn't prepare her as well and she was a little scared

In the first section its dark and you go backwards through stars, but later she liked it seeing all the scenes

Welcome to the Future - After the ride through the Spaceship Earth at Epcot Center, you get to see a cute little video of the future, here is me and Holly in our video.

Inside afterwards she enjoyed playing the games, Here we are using special power to energize a city

Afterwards we got to meet some characters

She was really excited about daisy and the wait was really short

She is a fan of Mickey Mouse Club House so she had lots of questions

But Daisy didn't talk, so she kept asking me why.  But she liked her pink shirt

Right near by was Goofy, who she also likes a lot

Because well, he is goofy and Holly has a very silly personality

After a Day at magic Kingdom Holly learned that Oma doesn't like pictures

But we made sure to drag her into them all so we could remember her there with us

It was now time to head into International row

My mom was excited about teaching Holly about all of the different countries.

The first one was Mexico and here we met Donald

Holly told me that her friend Citlali is from Mexico, and that became our routine for the day

Talking about who we know from the various countries we would see,

Also something I didn't know before arriving was that every country had a different character

So we would be meeting a lot of princesses and characters all day, that was super exciting

This is Norway and where we would be having our princess lunch

Before heading inside we rode the maelstrom which is a Viking Boat ride.  it too was a little scary

There was thunder and lightning, but we survived the high seas.

Inside the restaurant we got to take pictures first off with Belle

They gave us a beautiful 8X10 print out before we left as a keepsake which is nice

Since we had done the Enchanted Belle story two nights before

Holly decided to ask Belle how she liked her surprise party

and of course Belle told her she loved it.

We made sure to get a shot with Oma and Mommy since we didn't get pictures with Belle during her party

On our way to the table we got to wave at some princesses coming by, a preview

Holly was excited to see her Favorite Snow White for the first and only time this Trip

Before Lunch started Aurora came by and gathered all the children for a parade

Princess Parade at Lunch - As we enter Norway to Join the princesses for lunch we parade through the restaurant before we sit and eat.  One little princess looses her Mommy, but I help.

After the parade we begin lunch, there are cold appetizers at a buffet that we gather.

The food was very hardy, more traditional style Norwegian faire. I had a yummy open faced turkey Sandwich and my mom had something Roast Beef

Holly is super excited to get to talk to Aurora after following her in the parade

she has her sign her book, picking out the perfect page for her

Then she wants to show off her dress, because of course they match.

After meeting some princesses briefly at Magic Kingdom Holly is a little more comfortable with them

She is more chatty, though still very star struck.

Holly hardly had time for a bite to eat when Next comes along Snow White

She shows Holly how to properly hold her skirt and curtsy

Holly tells her she is her favorite princess

and then has Mommy join in for a photo too

It was actually quite challenging to meet everyone while also trying to eat

Next is Cinderella, who finds Holly's signature book right off

Holly gets up so she can pose with her and show her what she learned from Snow White

But Cinderella, a true princess knows just how to curtsy with a Ball gown too

Holly tells her how much she likes her Blue dress

And asks her where her mice friends are

Last is Ariel, Holly is excited because it is Ariel as a Human

She asks her about her Pink Dress which is what she wears in the Movie

And asks her if she remembers seeing her yesterday with her tale

And wants to know where her tale is.  It is all very cute.
