Todd and Megan's Weekend Getaway

Todd and I have talked for awhile now at the possibility of me tagging along on one of his business trips.  The prefect chance presented itself with his trip to Orlando in February.  Todd would be attending the National Golf Course Show for the first part of the week, and I could join him on Thursday and stay through the weekend.  Being the Disney Fanatics that we are, we decided to add a few Disney attractions to our itinerary.  Have a kid free schedule for a few days was great, but Todd and I missed the boys so much.  Despite all the rain, we had a great vacation and can not wait to do it again.
We decided to go to Epcot, Todd had never been, and I had gone once when I was little.  We loved it. Touring all the countries, sampling yummy food and drinks.  What is not to love.



We started our tour in Canada.  Considering that they do not sell beer in Disneyland, we did not have a clue how many drinks were available in Epcot.  Todd checked out every beer stand to see the local brews for each country.
 After Canada, we headed over to a Brew Pub in England.  





 From England, we headed over to Paris to take in the sites....



 Next stop, Morocco.


 Japan rounded out the last stop on the first part of our tour.
The tour was interrupted when we ran into all of our Disney friends.  Even without the boys, we had to get pictures there were no lines!







The tour continued - first Italy and then Germany.


 Then China - please note my latest drink choice....this was a long tour.


 Off to Norway - could not believe the line there to meet Elsa and Anna from the  movie Frozen!



 Ended the tour in Mexico - where we got a horrible photo, but proof that we hit every country while we were there!


We were thrilled that good friends of ours happened to be in Orlando that same weekend, so we had a fun dinner that evening with John and Leslie.  They thought we were crazy but we decided to go to Disneyworld the next day.  It rained pretty much throughout the day, but Todd and I had so much fun.  We mentioned the boys so many times when we were there, but it was nice to have some "couple" time.  Although Disneyworld is pretty amazing, we decided Disneyland is the way to go.  Everything is closer and easier to get to.  The big ride attractions are spread out among many parks in Florida.  I loved the trip, but this Land family will be heading back to California for our next Disney adventure!




 P.S. - please ask Todd about his picture with Belle.
