Exploring Morocco at Epcot

Image
The Morocco area of Epcot is really a small labyrinth and fun to explore. The detail of  tiled areas is fascinating as I walked through this large entryway.  Wandering into this courtyard I was reminded of a movie  Hideous Kinky with Kate Winslet, it was about a fascinating trip to India. Looking up, it's a courtyard with a large open ceiling. Columns of tile and engraving hold up the second floor balcony.  The ornate buildings are huge, yet everything is on the street level. Large planters full of these beauties really caught my eye. On a earlier visit in November I had a wonderful lunch at the Tangierine Cafe  The flavors together were incredible.  This platter had chicken, a rice dish, a green vegetable that was amazing, hummus, pita and a white sauce that was delicious on everything. Exploring the corridors there were many shops. The wares displayed outdoors ...

Japan at Epcot World Showcase

JAPAN! We really explored several countries while we were at the World Showcase at Epcot.  Instead of walking around the the lake on the main thoroughfare, we went into the shops and in the nooks and crannies. I loved the Buddah Board!  Painting with water, just for the moment.  It fades away, ready for a new "moment" in minutes.  It was too hard to resist and I took one home.

July in a Nutshell

Image
So July 2012 was the month that was! We had five weekends, 3 sets of guests and gave two parties. Both my husband and I each had a trip away. A busy, wonderful, glorious month! Not without it's perils though for I had blogging issues that kept me silent for nearly two weeks!  But see?  Resolved....I'm adding photos! My last day at Disney with some very special characters at Animal World! I had to change from Firefox to Internet Explorer which was a simple fix considering all the hoops I jumped through trying to get my pictures to load using the server I've always used.  Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?  Not I.  All I know is that I can't repair things, I must just find a different path.  My Disney time during Mid July was fabulous! Ginny, Rebecca and I at Epcot Ginny and Rebecca, my best friends from Dayton OH, were weekend guests and saw my new house for the first time!  Later we all traveled to Orland...
