Overall I think this year is good except one thing that bothered me was that the topiaries are very heavily dominated to the main walkways which left most of the countries with very little to none (that and my fav ones- the pandas from China are still MIA 2 years in a row now..) ie the Dwarfs which used to be in Germany are now at the front entrance. The bad: Waited 41 minutes at 2 pm to get an order of fries at Liberty Inn. Took about 15 to order (which shouldve been my first clue) but I chalked that up to the DDP guests in front of me- I was wrong... The lady in front of me commented it had been that bad of a wait everywhere she'd gone this week.. You could tell they were running a reduced cast (though if you had a restaurant that crowded at 2 pm- how bad was it at 12...) Price sign still hasn't been changed in the Norway Bakery and the fence still hasn't been fixed near the towers The okay: Park looked great but needs a good leaf sucker/blower to make it perfect Mixed communication.. They had a "kidcot" station for F& G where you colored a plastic pot then went to Tinkerbell Garden and got seeds to plant at home.. The cast at the color station were encouraging everyone (adults and kids alike) to color a pot but when you went to the seed station they kept insisting it was kids only.. and the only way to get them was to color the "seed marker" color sheet so all adults proceeded to sit and color (which cheesed them off but it was their rules..) the seed packet is cute though... Garden Town (in Wonders) is now only open weekends.. The good: Traded for a bunch of kewl pins- Took way to many pictures Got 2 more KP missions done only 2 more to go The baby ducks near Nemo were adorable to watch! <a href="http://s157.photobucket.com/albums/t71/DL_EM/Epcot%20309/" target="_blank">http://s157.photobucket.com/al...t%20309/</a>
