Quick Trip Report

[FatherofFour]

We just got back from a five day trip to the World without the kids. While we only did Epcot and MK, most of the time I was in meetings, playing golf, eating Sushi at Kimonos (you know business stuff).

The Flower and Garden Festival was unbelivable. We had the opportunity to take the "Garden's of the World Tour" at Epcot, and it was a great tour during the festival.

The crowds did get pretty heavy around noon, but if you stick to a plan the parks were really quite easy to navigate. During the mornings, everything was walk-on (Mission Space, Soaring, Peter Pan, Snow White, Buzz, etc...) After lunch, fastpass took care of any wait.

The only downer of the whole trip was the flight home. I will never fly on a late afternoon flight out of Orlando again. The kids (a) didn't want to leave, (b) were exhausted or (c) had done the parks all morning and were tired and fussy. So you can imagine the crying, screaming and noise.

I'll try to get a full report out later, but for now, back to work.

Thanks for sharing! I would love to check out the Flower & Garden Festival.


UhOh I just booked our late afternoon flight home!

I was at the Flower show on the day it opened, big mistake. But I went back one morning at opening through World Showcase and I took pictures and stopped and smelled the roses. I never knew there were so many kinds of roses. Are they still blooming so beautiful or are they past their peak.
