Disney Day 6: EPCOT

Our day at EPCOT started with breakfast in Norway with the Princesses!

Belle greets you upon arrival!
A little blurry (thanks photopass photographer) but the 5 of us with Belle
Cinderella with Cara
Ariel with Cara
and Aurora with Cara
This international Christmas tree was beautiful
These Minnie and Mickey Christmas topiaries were really neat
My parents have a Disney rewards Visa so they had a special photo op for those cardholders so we waited 45 minutes to see Minnie and Goofy ?! Kind of disappointed but they wouldn't tell you which characters were in there!
Mr and Mrs Claus were in "America". While Daddy waited in line for us to see the Candlelight Processional we waited in line to see them.
The candlelight processional was beautiful! A large orchestra with a 200+ choir , narrated by a celebrity (on this night it was Corbin Bernsen). They read the story of Jesus' birth and sing songs and it was beautiful.
I am sure the later it is the more stunning the candlelight choir is, but we chose to go to an earlier showing hoping it would not be as crowded
Then we went to "Italy" to meet Befana, the Christmas witch. She fills stockings on Jan 6th. Aunt Cyndi sent Cara a book about Befana so we can learn about the traditions on Italy.
We bought Gingerbread cookies!
"oops, I bit his head off"! This was the yummiest gingerbread I have ever tasted!
