Disney Vacation Fun: Epcot Trivia

12640416_10153433059771234_7431756683618732860_oA few weeks ago we chatted about Magic Kingdom trivia, so now it’s time to blow your friends away with these facts about EPCOT.  Now Walt had a concept for Epcot that was not fully fulfilled.  Walt originally wanted Epcot to be a place for his Cast Members to live.  If you’ve ever been to Epcot before you will know that this did not happen.  Although if you join the Disney family through the Disney College Program they do have some off site housing for you.  Enough of the background information, here’s your newest list of trivia to impress your friends.

Wordless Wednesday: Fun While Waiting in Line

No one really likes waiting in line (FastPass anyone?), but Disney has found a way to make waiting in line actually fun! On a number of rides and attractions, you will find all sorts of interactive queues…and some of them are so much fun, it might make you actually WANT to wait in that line!

Karen grew up in the Boston area and traveled to Disney World many times with her parents and sister. Always staying at the Fort Wilderness Cabins gave the trips a feeling of a home away from home. It also started the tradition of attending the Hoop Dee Doo Review on each trip! Somehow that show sparked her interest in the Disney College Program. Which she did in the fall of 2002, working as a hostess @ Captain Jacks in Downtown Disney. Now as an adult, Karen finds herself traveling to the parks on a yearly basis! Photography has always been a hobby of Karen’s, but over the past few years it has become her passion. It’s even taken her to her favorite place! The Make a Wish Foundation sent a family to Disney for a week and Karen was lucky enough to be their photographer of choice! She got to tag along and photograph their memories being made. She hopes to get that experience again someday!

This attraction is bumpy and it does jar you around so it isn’t recommended for those with back problems or if you are pregnant. However, I have found with the seat belts and holding on to the bar in front of me, it isn’t too bad! Read more
