I'm so jealous you got to see the end of the Flower and Garden Festival! That is definitely on my bucket list!

Captain Barbossa · Jun 20, 2018

Omg! That second rainbow looks like it's coming out of the tower in Italy!

Cronut! Yum yum yum! I haven’t had breakfast yet and I want that cronut right now! That snack is at the top of our snack list on our July trip.

This is a really cool picture! It looks like the rainbow is coming out of the tower in Italy!! Either that, or there is a pot of gold at VIa Napoli!

It was so nice to be able to see the "leftovers" especially because we were supposed to go the week before and F & G would still be going on!

It looked like that in person, so many people were taking lots of pics! I definitely have more coming :angelic:

Epcot con't:
We were just sort of walking around since we didn't have a lot of time before Illuminations started and we weren't sure how many people were going to be in the FP area.

It was a beautiful night! It cooled down a bit but I only noticed being "cold" when it was breezy.

We noticed lots of people lining up for the FP so we got in line

Soon the sun set and we watched - although they did give everyone a warning about how the shells can sometimes fall into the viewing area especially since it was windy. I watched (in horror) as people let their children run around WITHOUT SHOES ON!!! There were lots of ash/fireworks shells that were red hot falling into the viewing area so I don't understand why people were letting their kids do that.

I only took a few pictures - but I really like this one :joyfull:

Next - the end of a great Epcot day!

Your comment about kids running around Epcot without shoes during fireworks reminded me of the time I saw a couple of kids running around the bathroom without shoes. Now I know it's not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things but it's just sooooo gross LOL. I was a child who absolutely hated wearing shoes and socks (still do actually!) but once I understood about germs and what exactly was on that floor, I started wearing shoes real quick :joyfull:

And related to that, I was in a local breakfast joint lately where two people in separate parties (one a man and the other woman) took their sandals off and then put their bare, stinky summer feet up on the bench across from them. Did I mention I don't really like looking at feet LOL?

I agree!! It is so gross - all I can think about is getting a wart or worse, someone dropped a needle in the bathroom (like for insulin/etc) or at a restaurant where 1000s of people sit!! Ahh!! So gross. I try to always keep my shoes on LOL

I don't even walk barefoot on the resort floor LOL. I always pack flip flops to wear around the room. And I disinfect the tub before I take a shower

No shoes in the bathroom makes me squirm inside. I don't even let my bare feet touch the floor when I'm changing at the gym :hilarious:

I work at a college, and there is this weird subset of students who never wear shoes like they're hippies or something. It's the most annoying, grossest thing ever. I don't hide my look of disgust when I see them, but I'm sure that's what they want...the attention :cautious:

Hahaha that totally reminds me... so I live at school and in my building I lived in last year we had an ABP on the first floor (Au Bon Pain). This kid who lived on my floor would go barefoot in his robe to get food :hungover:

like whattttttt?

becca_ · Jun 22, 2018

Finishing up at Epcot -

If you know me... you know I had to take 1000 pictures of SSE so here are a few of my "best"

And with that, we headed out.

As soon as we got there a bus pulled on up! See ya, Epcot! Showers & bed were in order for both of us!

Next - a Magic Kingdom morning!

I still cringe when I remember the women at the gym that would take a shower without shoes - in a gym shower!! The shower floor would even look dirty :hungover:
