The Guillemette's Go To Florida - Epcot Center

For our first full day in Florida and our first day out at the parks we decided to hit up Epcot.

Although I have spent a lot of time at Disneyland throughout the years the last time I was in Disney World I was 4 and the Guillemette's hadn't been there for 15 years, so it was really fun to go back as adults with the vague memories of family trips so many years ago and see what we remembered. And it turns out that pretty much all I remembered about Epcot was the big ball!

We had a great day, enjoyed a few rides including some learning rides about the world which the nerd in me thoroughly enjoyed, explored the mini area for each country, and learned just how hot and humid it is in Florida. I mean you would think that the two of us from Texas could handle it but it turns out we spend a lot of time in air conditioning and spending all day in the sun at a park teaches you just how fast you can sweat through all your clothes haha.

But despite the heat it was a great day at Epcot and a great start to our trip! Here are a few of our many many pictures from the day!

Awkward prom pose


In one of the areas you could look up your last name and read some history about it. Look what I found...


Some yummy sweets




And then I think everyone got a little silly from the heat




All in all it was a wonderful day at Epcot and a great start to our trip!



Up next Blizzard Beach...
