Epcot Character Hunting!

This morning I headed to Epcot early to do an entire day of character hunting, since that was the only park I hadn't done it in yet. I saw Chip and Dale first. Then I got a FastPass for Soarin since I hadn't ridden it in I don't know how long! After that I waited in a long line to see Goofy up at the front of the park.

The only thing left in Future World was the Epcot Character Spot which I figured I'd hit it later. So, I headed to the World Show case. I saw Mary Poppins in the United Kingdom, Snow White in Germany, Aladdin and Jasmine in Morocco, Alice in the United Kingdom and Princess Aurora in France.

As I was on my way to China, I saw a whole bunch of characters out by the American Adventure. Let's see I met Gideon from Pinocchio and Captain Hook with Mr. Smee! They also had Tigger, Pooh, Donald, and Goofy. I made it per to China and saw Mulan. Despite my not liking him, I met Duffy the Disney Bear. Next was Tigger and Piglet in the United Kingdom. Finally I ended up back in France to see Belle.

Then, another surprise. I got to meet Terence (he's from the Tinkerbell movies) and Lady Treamaine, Anastasia and Drizella ( Cinderella's Stepmother and Stepsisters). I headed over to Mexico to meet Donald and then it was time for Soarin!!! After Soarin, I did the Epcot Character Spot. I met Mickey, Pluto and Minnie!

Next I tried on a whim to see if I could get in to eat at Chefs de France (I've been dying to eat there since I got here) and I walked right in!! The food was pretty good, and I know I've said this before but I love how they make sure people from whatever country actually work in that country! The best part had to be when a gentleman brings around a big silver platter. When he lifts it up Remy the rat chef from Ratatouille is there! He kinda talks to you and it is so awesome! It almost made the meal worth the price!

I decided to head out since the possibility of rain was coming. I went to Wilderness Lodge and walked around there and took pictures. Then I went to the Grand Floridian and then back to the Wilderness Lodge. I headed back to the apartment after that. We passed our final apartment inspection (no thanks to the billion boxes of beer on top of our cupboards) and I just relaxed and watched an episode of The Fosters. All in all a pretty successful day!
