353/365 Christmas at Epcot

Matt surprised me with a quick trip to Epcot tonight to see the Illuminations show. It's my favorite and I love the Christmas show. We're going to put these annual passes to good use :)

We sat in England and watched from there. It's in our top three favorite places to watch, mainly because Matt loves the fish and chips.

Also - a quick library run

What a day. It began with car trouble for my father. A couple of hundred of dollars in repair later - it was solved. As if that wasn't enough of a hassle, due to the repairs taking way too long, we were late for our lunch reservation at Epcot and had to travel there in separate cars. There was a very quick run through the park by David and Matt to make sure we got the table they were holding for us and Dad didn't get there for another hour still, but finally we all made it.

Luckily we had chosen to have lunch at the German restaurant Biergarten and it was buffet style. So we had plenty of time for everyone to have some delicious food. The Christmas show was wonderful too!

Then it was off to the Candlelight Processional. Our guest speaker was Isabella Rossellini

Then we wandered around the worlds, enjoyed some hot chocolate and listened to the story tellers.

Here's the family in France.

We even got to meet Father Christmas in England.

Then we played around in the gift stores.

I love how pretty the Christmas ornaments are

They are so creative too!

Here are some pictures while we were waiting for the fireworks show to start

(Side note: After the show, we saw a young couple get in engaged in front of that tree!)

Finally it was time to get ready for my FAVORITE Disney Fireworks show - Illuminations! I love it so much, especially the holiday version with Walter Cronkite. Of course, it was the first show since his death this summer and I cried in remembrance.
