As well as looking at property to buy during our recent trip to Florida, we still found time to visit Epcot and Magic Kingdom - but so did the rest of the world, apparently! Lots of photos in the Gallery, or see these selections:
World Showcase - Japan:

The updated “The Seas” now features Nemo and friends from the animated movie - these gulls cheerfully call “Mine” ![]()

By the time we’ve queued and exited “The Seas”, it’s got dark:

Our trip to Magic Kingdom was the only day when the weather wasn’t perfect, sunny and 80s - instead it rained on and off throughout the day and evening (but it was still about 70!) … being New Years Eve, it was probably the busiest day of the year for the park!

There were long queues everywhere - some rides had queues of more than 1-1/2 hours!

We chose to do things that didn’t involve so much queueing, like riding the railroad:

We did get a “fast pass” for Splash Mountain - we spent a couple of hours elsewhere in the park till our fast pass time came, but that shortened the actual queueing time to maybe 15 minutes …

We watched a (wet) parade, Mickey’s Once Upon A ChristmasTime Parade:

We also stayed for the 8pm fireworks (no pics of them due to camera limitations) … afterwards, we joined many others exiting the park (but even more people stayed till 2am, through the second (New Years) fireworks) …
