Trip Report ~ Epcot (day 2–part 1)

Man, if I spread out my trip report enough, it’ll be time to go back to Disney by the time I’m done!  That would be like vacationing all the time.  Works for me.  But, I’m guessing those of you who care would like to hear about our trip NOW, right? 

Our second day was scheduled as a day at Epcot.  And, our first order of business was breakfast with the princesses at Akershus in the Norway Pavilion in World Showcase.  We had done this meal before (January of 2009, to be exact) and loved it, so we were ready to try it again.  We weren’t disappointed.

The interaction with the princesses at this meal is top-notch!  Each one takes the time to talk personally to the kids, sign autograph books, and get pictures.  In addition to Cinderella, Ariel, and Snow White, we also met Aurora during breakfast.  Upon check-in, we also had opportunity to meet with Belle and have our picture taken with her.  I love this character meal because those picture packages are INCLUDED in the price of the meal! Because we have 5 in our family, we got 2 packages – one of all of us, and one of just the kids. They aren’t my favorite pictures – but, hey, they were free! 

Another thing we all love about this dining experience is the food!  Not only is there a buffet filled with all kinds of yummy pastries and fruits (and some typical Norwegian fare – meats, cheeses, etc.), but they also bring these platters to the table:

That’s a whole lot of yumminess right there – especially the potatoes! And they’ll bring out as many of these platters as you can consume before exploding.  Seriously! 

Have you done this meal?  If so, I’d love your thoughts on it. 

More about our day at Epcot in a future post . . .
