I'm going to Epcot tomorrow so this is perfect!!
Love the podcast! I didn’t think I could listen to an hour long Disney podcast as the first time I ever went to Disney was last year, but oh was I wrong … and now I look forward to each episode 🏰
Speaking of our visit, it was in August of 2022 and Biergarten was back to a buffet at that time, and the drummers were in front of the Pagoda in Japan. They were great!
Jess, I love your Walt Disney ride idea!
Disney really needs to stop with the sausages!! LOL!!!
Coco would be the best addition ever. I would live there
YES! Coffee is HUGE in all of Scandinavia — Norway included! (I used to live in Sweden — coffee is EVERYTHING there!)
Yes, Coco is The Best! I liked it a lot more than Encanto, even. (and I did like Encanto)
I believe that Animal Kingdom is actually purposefully kept 10 degrees warmer for the animals comfort.
Germany pavilion: The gift shop is my +1 especially the Christmas shoppe.
For the -1 or what I would add would be to add a Tangled ride but have it narrated with Germany facts by Flynn Rider as if we are following along rapunzels birthday lantern festival.
We just ate at the Biergarten restaurant in August and it was a buffet!
The Morocco pavilion was never actually owned by Disney. They had a contract for it, and the contract never got renewed. I wouldn't be surprised if Disney changes the entire pavilion at some point.
We just got back from Disney this weekend. We did a full Epcot day on Sunday. Answer to one of your questions it looked like the Germany restaurant is back to buffet style. We were back there getting the pretzel bread pudding and I saw people at the buffet through the window!
@thecasualpuzzler yes! i agree!!!!😅
So many great ideas! I love listening to your suggestions on how to add to each country. I really enjoyed this episode!
Idk I think what I love about the world showcase is that it’s somewhat trying to stay true to the country. So making any movie the big thing of it would take that away. And then movies will come and go and it would be harder to keep up with rather than just sticking to the country theme
I’m going to Epcot for the first time in 10 years next week so this was timed so well! Always love listening to what you guys have to say about Disney
Oh man. The news about Marrakesh bums me out so much! It was one of my favorites as a kid. My husband and I got married in 2020, and we were supposed to have a mini-moon at Disney and we had Marrakesh reservations. 2 weeks before our wedding, they announced Disney was closing for COVID. So I never got to eat at Marrakesh. And knowing that it may never reopen has me sad.
Idk if you guys have BevMo or Total Wine in Indiana but you can buy Lucky Buddha at those stores
Love this so much (and all you do). World Showcase makes my heart so happy. I went to Biergarten for the first time in December 2021 for the first time and loved it- and it was a buffet then. I was actually surprised, but enjoyed it!
There’s a gift shop in France adjacent to the quick service Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie. If memory serves me right once you’re done with the sing along that’s where you exit to. 🤔
Love this! side note: do you have a link for Tyler's shirt?
As a British person, the Rose and Crown pub being crowded is incredibly authentic – not often you go into a UK pub and it’s quiet! Usually you’re fighting for the bartenders attention 😅
They really need a Greek pavilion! Would be stunning and a great opportunity to bring Hercules in!! ❤
I wish they would open another fully indoor pavilion like Epcot and Japan! It’s so hot, they need that AC! 😅
First time commenter, long time lurker – love you both so much;
I just went to Disney at the beginning of October, my first time during spooky szn (I loved every second of it) and since COVID (so thankful to be back). My family and I went to Epcot and two things stuck with me the most.
1. I LOVED the Chinese acrobats and I was so excited to see them and THEY'RE STILL NOT BACK!! I'm not sure if it has something to do with the entire pandemic misinformation issue or if they're never coming back but I so hope that they do.
2. I had NEVER been on the Frozen ride in Norway since they changed it from Maelstrom to Frozen (lines were always long, pandemic, etc.) but I rode it for the first time and it was cute, not any where near as good as Maelstrom but cute. However, I found I was giving myself the jump scare remembering all the aspects of Maelstrom just to look over and see Olaf!! I did it atleast 4-5 times and laughed at myself the whole time.
Thank you both for yet another incredible and entertaining episode – so thankful for you both, this community and this pod!! <3
My favorite Ayn Rand quote is displayed in the American Pavilion. Great episode!
