PHOTO REPORT: EPCOT 2/10/20 (Rope Drop, Waiting for Regal Eagle Smokehouse, Hidden Mickey, and More)

Good morning from our favorite construction site, EPCOT! Let’a take a look what’s happening around the park today.

This geosphere is so iconic, I always make sure to stop and take a picture of it every time I am there. What’s your favorite park icon?

Time for rope drop! The EPCOT JAMMitors always brighten up the morning and get us moving!

03 021020 Epcot Experience Cool.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Today was a great day to enjoy a break from the heat while watching Walt Disney Imagineering Presents: The EPCOT Experience. This show really gets us excited for the future of EPCOT.

02 021020 Epcot No Epcot Eats.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

We are still patiently waiting for Eats at The EPCOT Experience to open. In the meantime, however, you can’t go wrong with a Mickey Pretzel with cheese. Yum!

03 021020 Epcot These Cranes are Different.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

These aren’t the type of cranes we are used to seeing in this park.

04 021020 Epcot Taste Track.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

We’re also patiently awaiting the arrival of Taste Track! The stylish building is in, but there’s still lots of work being in there.

05 021020 Epcot Space 220.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Another highly-anticipated food option we’re excited for (can you tell we LOVE food?) is Space 220! All was quiet over here today as we walked by.

06 021020 Epcot Almost Beautiful View.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

This is an (almost) unobstructed beautiful view of the park if you look past the building that has been sawed in half.

07 021020 Epcot Fountain.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Ah, here we go! A view without a recently demolished building in the background.

10 021020 Epcot Nemo and Friends.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

To The Seas we go!

08 021020 Epcot SCUBA Diver.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Over at Seabase, we saw a SCUBA diver in the tank! Always a treat!

09 021020 Epcot Fav Hidden Mickey.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Seabase is also the home of one of my favorite Hidden Mickeys ever!

11 021020 Epcot Coral Reef Still Broken Window.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

This mysterious wooden panel is still up over at Coral Reef Restaurant.

12 021020 Epcot Mouse Gear Sad Face.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

The former location of MouseGear is looking extra rough lately, with all of the windows being completely with black plywood. We’re hoping this store looks amazing when it emerges from its less-than-beautiful cocoon.

13 021020 Epcot Expression Section.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

This mural looks like its almost complete! We can’t wait to see what the next one is.

14 021020 Epcot Skyliner Ride.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

It was a beautiful day for a ride on the Skyliner today!

15 021020 Epcot Ratatouille.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

From the sky, you can see work on Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure in France is moving steadily along! Will you be riding this when it opens this summer?

16 021020 Epcot Another Day Waiting for Regal Eagle.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Our endless quest to enjoy all the new eateries at EPCOT brings us to Regal Eagle Smokehouse! Looks like another day without a delicious barbecue lunch for us.

17 021020 Epcot Trains.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

The winds were quiet today, so the trains in Germany were all moving around today with no trouble from Mother Nature.

18 021020 Epcot Christmas Cutie.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Would it really be a Photo Report from me without *something* about Christmas? Survey says no.

19 021020 Epcot Mushu.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

We are obsessed with these little details in every country of the World Showcase! This one has us so excited for the upcoming live-action theatrical release of Mulan.

20 021020 Epcot Photo Op Norway.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

It’s always a treat to catch this Troll in Norway without a line!

22 021020 Epcot Finale.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

That wraps up our day at EPCOT! With EPCOT International Festival of the Arts wrapping up, a new festival is just right around the corner! Are you looking forward to EPCOT International Flower and Garden?
