Good morning Lil’ Chefs, from another beautiful day at EPCOT during the International Food & Wine Festival!
Before walking into the park, we headed over to the EPCOT Monorail platform to see a new sign in place for the line’s return this coming weekend.
Checking in on Creations Shop once inside, we saw more exterior repair and painting continuing, and another look inside at the cool CommuniCore style lighting fixtures that will be around the shop.
Working back around towards Test Track to check in on Guardians of The Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind progress, the exterior facade also progresses with more roofing and work on the exit.
Speaking of Test Track, the lines reflect the more recent crowd surges.
Just 30 minutes after park opening, standby lingered at 75 minutes, and single rider was at 30 minutes.
Deciding we would rather cool off than wait in line, we moved over to two of the Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea Company locations outside of Mission: SPACE and the promenade in World Showcase to try two of their four new drinks exclusive to the festival. Read our thoughts on these cool coffees here!
As we started around World Showcase, we found our favorite imaginative purple dragon on a MagicBand hiding at Port of Entry as an Annual Passholder festival exclusive!
New banners and window clings for the International Food and Wine Festival decorated the inside of Port of Entry.
Today’s princess cavalcade featured Princess Aurora, Mulan, and Snow White!
The Mirror de los Muertos kiosk in the Mexico Pavilion was on and fully operational, with all touchscreen points available.
The Art of Disney in The American Adventure featured select Flower & Garden prints on sale.
This kiosk on the side of the pavilion reopened today, featuring some patriotic attire after being closed since pre-pandemic.
Restaurant Marrakesh in Morocco has officially reopened, but just as a seating area.
On our way out of World Showcase, we saw some fountain testing on the center ring for Harmonious; we cannot wait until its debut!
Thanks for following along with us today!
