Another Magical Weekend

It had been a whole 6 weeks since we had been to Disney.  High time to remedy that.  And since Nana had just had a hip replaced, we thought we would go test it out by doing a little walking.  We were only headed up for the weekend so we had to make the most of the time we did have.  Friday night we headed over to Hollywood Studios for a quick bite to eat and to see the Fantasmic show since we had never seen it before.  We were back and snuggled in our Disney themed beds (an Airbnb just offsite) by 10 pm.  We had a full day tomorrow and wanted to be well rested.

Epcot was our park of choice for our only full day.  And we were lucky enough that we were there just before the Flower and Garden Festival started because the crowds had not yet descended but they had almost completed the decorating.  It was gorgeous.

I think my favorite part of the festival was the topiaries.  They were in each land and all along the paths.  It seemed like every character you could think of was carved out of a bush.  I will give you some of my favorites...

We rode a bunch of rides with almost no wait at all.  It is truly the best time of year to go if you can manage it.  And we stopped for some sweet treats to refuel us before riding a few more rides...

We had some refreshing drinks with our tasty dinner in France.

And then we said goodnight to Epcot.

We were at it pretty bright and early again the next morning.   We had to leave in the late afternoon so we wanted to make sure we got the most out of our trip.  We stopped for a quick shot in front of the castle before hitting some attractions.

And by luck, just after we came around the side of the castle on our way to some ice cream, we ran into this...

Another purely magical weekend!

And the weather thought so too as we saw this on the drive home...
