PHOTO REPORT: EPCOT 8/11/21 (Mickey Mouse Takes a Swim Over at The Seas with Nemo & Friends, Garden Railway in Germany Gets Into The International Food & Wine Festival Spirit, Brand New Merchandise Debuts, and More)

Welcome world travelers to another beautiful day at EPCOT! Join us today as we venture throughout the park and discover just what’s in store for us. Let’s jump in!

We started off our day by taking a trip on the EPCOT monorail line, where we got some great views of the ongoing construction around the park.

We journeyed over to The Seas with Nemo & Friends, where we were greeted by a pleasant surprise. We found Mickey Mouse scuba diving with all of his fishy friends while also taking photos and interacting with guests. We’ve seen Mickey taking a dip here once before on World Oceans Day, and we were very happy to see him return. We hope to see Scuba Mickey again in the future.

We decided to get a more grounded look at the construction progress for the upcoming Creations Shop and re-imagined Club Cool.

Today we found the unveiled menu for the upcoming 2021 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival booth, Mac & Eats! This booth did not debut at the start of the festival, but you’ll be able to try these tasty treats starting October.

Get ready to dial in style with this Brand New Minnie Mouse iPhone 12 Pro Max Case. We found this adorable teal, marbled-style phone case this morning at Pin Traders for $34.99.

Over at Mouse Gear, we found an out of this world pair of lounge pants featuring The Mandalorian, Grogu, and Stormtroopers. We recently saw this same style over at Disneyland. These are available for $36.99.

Today we found that The Breezeway is now being painted. This area will separate Creations Shop and Club Cool from the new quick-service restaurant and Starbucks, which are set to open at a later date.

We started our journey around World Showcase with a visit to The Garden Railway in Germany! This tiny German village seems to be celebrating The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival as well! You can now see miniature banners displaying art for the festival throughout the tiny town.

Anna and Elsa greeted guests while enjoying the summer sun over in Norway.

In Italy, we found that the mysterious booth that has been around for some time has started to take shape.

During the day we saw that more lighting tests were being conducted for the upcoming Harmonious. This nighttime spectacular is set to debut October 1.
