Disney Vacation '16: Photos Around Epcot

The boys enjoyed the Epcot aquarium and the Nemo ride. We got to see two matinees. It was also the wine and food festival at Epcot. We sampled from a few of the food vendors, but there were tons, so you had to be choosy!  








Disney Vacation '16: Minnie Mouse!

To complete the trio, Minnie Mouse!






Disney Vacation '16: Another Photo Op with Goofy

You can never have too much Goofy!







Disney Vacation '16: Mickey Mouse!

Thursday morning we headed back to Disney and Epcot this time. First stop, Mickey Mouse!

Disney Vacation '16: Some Ride Pictures

A few more ride pictures. I don't think all of them were working, though. I never saw any for Harry Potter or King Kong, which would have been classics. 



Disney Vacation '16: When Dinosaurs Attack!

I love ride pictures. The expressions on everyone's face is just priceless. 


This is also pretty spectacular. 

Not quite at good, but still good effort.

Disney Vacation '16: Jurassic Park

Who doesn't love dinosaurs?! Nick really wanted his picture taken in front of the gates and in front of the main building. Inside were lots of fun things to do with the dinosaurs and dino eggs. 










Disney Vacation '16: Mary's Magical Birthday Magic Show

The exit of the Harry Potter 4D ride is a gift shop (obviously) and while we were in there, a worker guy noticed our t-shirts and asked if we wanted a magical birthday magic demonstration. It was pretty cute. 


Disney Vacation '16: Hogwarts!

Yay for Hogwarts! It is definitely a very cool place. Don't let the fake snow fool you, though. It was really hot. The 'big kids' rode the Harry Potter 4D ride. Ben rode it at least 3 times. Nick wasn't tall enough, but he was more than happy with the hippogriff ride, which is a shorter version of the Mine Ride at Cedar Point. We had lunch at the 3 Broomsticks and checked the place out a bit. We escaped without purchasing any ($48!!) magic wands, thankfully!








Disney Vacation '16: Seuss Land

Nick had a little bit of a rough start to the day once we got the ticket thing handled. He suffers from a sever case of hangy and is a terrible person who miraculously changes the second you give him food. Snickers commercials have nothing on him. While he was feeding the monster, Ben and I checked out the impressive Seuss Land at Universal. It was pretty fun. Ben thought at first it was for babies, but then he got into it. They had a carousel of crazy Seuss animals and a little water pad area. And we even got to see Thing 1 and Thing 2! By then Nick had transformed back into himself again and had fun, too!
