Epcot (Experimental Planned Community of Tomorrow) is the second theme park to open at Walt Disney World, focusing on future technology and world cultures. The back half of Epcot is World Showcase, which deals with cultures of eleven different nations.
The Morocco showcase is based on a bazaar in the city of Fez. I may also eat some kebabs.
I thought that the big golf ball thing at Epcot in Orlando looked pretty awesome. It almost looks like a real-life cartoon to me, so I had to take a close up photo of it.
France had these neat topiaries of French perfumes. I know the center one is supposed to be Shalimar, and the one on the left is Insolence, both by Guerlain.
Who remembers this version of the famous EPCOT ball? This was my favorite one. I actually didn't like it when they took down the 2000 and put EPCOT up there. It has grown on me over time.
I scanned this from a negative (and my scanner is not very good). Lovely authentic film grain (lol).
To All who come to this place of Joy, Hope, and Friendship WELCOME.
Epcot is inspired by Walt Disney's creative vision. Here Human achievements are celebrated through imagination, wonders of enterprise and concepts of the future that promises new and exciting benefits for all.
May EPCOT center entertain, inform, and inspire, and above all may it instill a new sense of belief and pride in man's ability to shape a world that offers hope to people everywhere.

Test Track Attraction at Epcot theme park is a high-speed vehicle-simulation ride in which big kids, teens and adults test their mettle in one of Disney's longest and fastest rides.
Step into the world of automotive testing as your 6-seat vehicle undergoes the safety and quality tests that General Motors performs on every prototype it manufactures.
As you begin this 5-minute, nearly one-mile auto escapade, strap yourself in, ascend steep terrain that's 3 stories high, then let loose downhill, blasting across a bumpy road and roaring through 50-degree banked curves and hair-pin turns that test suspension and brakes at speeds up to 60 miles per hour!
Zoom into the environmental chamber to endure the extreme heat and cold tests—at temperatures that are 100 degrees apart! Then, see if your vehicle will withstand corrosion when robots mist water upon it. Finally, face the challenge of avoiding a crash barrier… in the nick of time!
