permanent Puerto Rico Pavilion at Epcot

[lockedoutlogic]

Is this before the new Russian pavilion or after? Will it be next to the new Brazilian pavilion? I am still waiting for those rumors to happen

Point taken...

And no offense (stereotype alert!!!), but in my personal experience the residents from that island - though nice people - talk a big game.

I'll only trust the shovels... As always...especially in this case.

Teacher, On the contrary, a PR pavilion could have potential to be very nice; though I would prefer more of a collaboration representing many areas of the Caribbean rather than just PR. I assure you any perceived slight likely stems from my attempt to poke at some of the Epcot purist. However, I do think it is a little strange to stress the different traditions or beauty of a particular region within the USA as a reason for a pavilion. There are plenty of different regional traditions or even cultures that could make the same distinctions. Just a few examples may include the American Indians, their nations / reservations or differences between "the deep south" and Alaska or rural Texas with New England states. All are beautiful in their own way and have their own traditions but they don't have their own pavilions.

Ok then ; point taken. My apologies if I misunderstood your comment.. I do recognize that other countries also deserve a chance to represent themselves and show their own particular beauty.. But Imho I think we have enough European countries in the world and would be a good idea to add something different and extraordinary. Something that represent the Latin American countries as whole.. I don't know, it could be Brazil, Spain or Peru with their beautiful Machu Pichu. It doesn't necessarily have to be PR but I can promise you that we have a lot offer and we can proudly share with the rest of the world our traditions,culture and history..

I guess time will tell and I'll be waiting with excitement more news about this !



Good evening everyone .
