Welcome Back to the American Adventure (in Photos)

Stephanie is returning to America from her European trip. Finally!

I got a call from Stephanie this morning and she is scheduled to leave from the United Kingdom and arrive back around 6:00 tonight. Since calling from the international terminal might be difficult, she said she would only give a call back if those plans changed.

As of now, I haven't recieved that call.

So, to welcome her back and get her back in the red, white, and blue spirit, 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 (for Stephanie)...



... and Georgia for most of the rest of us.



I am glad Stephanie is back. I will fill you in on her adventures later. Hope you enjoyed!

TTFN
