Epcot’s Flower & Garden Festival • The Swan & Dolphin Hotels
17 April 2017
Learning to live with edible flowers in The Land.
The most important plant of all.
Artwork next to the elevators in the Land Pavilion encourages you to take the stairs instead.
If you can dream it, you can do it. As long as what you dream is not making the four seasons balloons move up and down again like they used to years ago.
The ever photogenic mosaics outside the pavilion.
If you keep Kleenex® in business like I do, you want this in your life.
Because…
But most of the time I forget to photograph the signs that tell me what things are. In order to annoy myself later. Because I basically don’t know one plant from another.
On the way from Future World to World Showcase on the west side…
Holy moly! This time I remember.
Don’t fence them in.
Turtlebarrow.
Babalú.
Arrival in Canada. When you stay at the Lodge, be sure to sample their moose sausage.
Flowers, Bambi, Flower.
Ersatz Château Laurier.
Northwest Mercantile.
My other dwelling is a cottage in Victoria Gardens.
Today is Totem Tongue Tuesday.
How to recognize a Canadian lumberjack, eh.
A Friendship boat takes me to the Swolphin.
Where it’s always good to meet fellow hotel lobby lizards. Who quack me up because they aren’t actually lizards.
Go home, chocolate bunny at Fresh Mediterranean Market. It’s over.
There are as many swans at the Swan as there are dolphins at the Dolphin.
I cross this bridge to get to the Boardwalk,
where there is a turn-of-the-century bicycle in a window of the Screen Door General Store. Or Thimbles and Threads. It’s all the same thing.
I believe we spoke of this view of the Boardwalk once before…
