Good morning from EPCOT, a park in a state of constant transition. Let’s go take a look around our favorite construction zone!

With President’s Day weekend now behind us, the crowds at EPCOT this morning were significantly lower than we’ve been seeing. You can probably hear my audible sigh of relief at this point.

Sandwiched between construction walls, the crowds definitely appear to be larger, though. Will you be heading East or West for rope drop at the newly created fork in the road?

Beauty? At EPCOT? Groundbreaking! Work is well underway for the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, set to debut in just two weeks. We love the way the beautiful flower beds transform the park.

Much like the rest of Future World, these flower beds are still in transition.

10 021820 Epcot Spring Break Tees.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Spring Break is right around the corner, as well! This awesome new shirt is starting to pop up all over Walt Disney World. We found it this morning in MouseGear, blended with the St. Patrick’s Day display. You will definitely see us rocking this shirt!

11 021820 Epcot GATG Roof Panels.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

More framework has been installed on the roof of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in preparation for the return of the iconic solar panels.

12 021820 Epcot Purple Moon.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Did you hear the moon over at Mission: SPACE got a fresh coat of purple paint?

14 021820 Epcot Big News Regal Eagle.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

We were very excited to see the sign for Regal Eagle Smokehouse: Crafts Drafts & Barbecue has finally been revealed! We didn’t get to savor the delicious flavors that await us behind the planters, but this sure is a good sign that we’re getting close!

15 021820 Epcot Snack Time.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

With Festival of Arts dwindling down to single-digit days remaining (sad face), we took a quick snack break with these delicious Paint Brush Churros! Yum!

16 021820 Epcot Little Brother Mulan.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Little Brother was being his adorable self in China today! Every sighting of anything Mulan related gets us HYPED for the live action film!

These gorgeous waterfalls in Norway and Canada are beautiful spots to stop and take a breather.

19 021820 Epcot Hidden Mickey.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Do you know where this Hidden Mickey is located? Its one of my favorites in all of EPCOT!

20 021820 Epcot Christmas in UK.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

These obviously caught my attention in the Sportsman’s Shoppe in the United Kingdom Pavilion! They are so cute, I’ll definitely be picking one up before Christmas!

21 021820 Epcot Figgy So Cute.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

Any picture of Figment is a cute picture, and this portrait in Japan is no different!

22 021820 Epcot Paint in Progress.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

One of my favorite things about Festival of the Arts is not only getting to enjoy completed art pieces, but getting to watch their creation as well!

23 021820 Epcot Living Statues.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=scale&h=750&ixlib=php 1.2

These Living Statues are so fun to watch! I always wonder how hot the people in these costumes must be, though.

That wraps up our day at EPCOT! What’s your favorite thing about Festival of the Arts? I’d love to hear about in the comments!
