Oldies But Goodies – Don’t Pass Up Epcot’s United States Pavilion
The United States Pavilion in Epcot’s World Showcase is one of the most under appreciated attractions there. Because most of Walt Disney World’s visitors are Americans, most of their World Showcase time is spent in the pavilions that are a bit more exotic. Because of the way we Oldies are;

Oldies But Goodies…Date Night For Oldies

Best Things I Love About Disney World: Epcot Holiday Storytellers
One of the most special Holiday events at Disney World is one that is perhaps not as well-known as the other Christmas events: Epcot’s Holidays Around the World Storytellers. But if you are visiting Walt Disney World in the next month, plan to take some time to visit World Showcase and stop by to see a few of the Storytellers if you can. You’ll be in for a treat if you do.
Oldies But Goodies…More Than Buses Part 2
Boats! Boats! Boats! In Part 1 I covered almost every alternative form of Walt Disney World transportation except my favorite and a favorite of a lot of my fellow Oldies – BOATS!!! You might be surprised by just how much boat transportation there is at Walt Disney World. Three of
Yummy Heirlooms from the United States Marketplace at Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival
Heirloom Tomatoes with Oregon Blue Cheese and Red Onions from United States Marketplace at Epcot’s International Food and Wine Festival Normally I skip the United States marketplace when traveling around the World Showcase in search of new items to try.

Best Things I Love About Disney…Morocco Pavilion
The Morocco Pavilion seems to attract less attention than a lot of the others. It’s a shame because it is one of the most intricate and beautiful pavilions in all of the World Showcase. Also, the United States has a very long history with the country of Morocco in that
Best Things I Love About Disney…Victoria Gardens
There is something of exceptional beauty that a lot of visitors seem to miss on their visits. That item is called Victoria Gardens and it is located at the Canada Pavilion in the Epcot World Showcase. As the plaque pictured above states the gardens are inspired by Butchart Gardens in

Checking Out the Segway: A Whole Different Kind of Disney Fun
You see them zipping here and there at Disney: castmembers on 2-wheel contraptions that look like a space-age cross between a bike and a scooter. Efficient, “green”, and a whole lotta fun, they are, of course, Segways. I finally had a chance to ride one on our last visit to Disney World….and am here to say that it was way fun!
