Japan

Here are some pictures from Japan in EPCOT.



I like Japan alright, but it's just too small. There's a few lovely things here though. First is the little garden area. A very quiet, nice spot to get away from it all with water used throughout.



A rock garden sits inside the land along with the massive buildings outside Teppen Edo. There are some other nice scenery around here as well with an Emperial Guard riding a horse nearby.



Now, we go inside the store. Fun stuff in here, especially the foreign treats!



Finally, who can forget the Candy Lady?

American Adventure

I give you the American Adventure from EPCOT's World Showcase.



There's not a whole lot to be honest. That grand structure is about six stories, but forced perspective is used to make it appear only three stories from a distance. The reason is because buildings in the revolutionary time were only two or three stories high, but this building needed to be as tall as everything else in the World Showcase.

As far as entertainment, if you are lucky; you can catch the Fife and Drum Corps.



You can also catch the American Adventure show staring Mark Twain and Ben Franklin. "America! Spread your golden wings!"

Get there early. You can catch the Voice of Liberty accepella group. They are wonderful. The museum there is small, but gives a nice slice of liberty.



Next door, you can get your all American cheeseburger or hot dog. Hanging on the wall are flags from the original thirteen colonies.



Here we see Virginia...



... and Georgia.
