Did you know that the final pavilion to enter the EPCOT Planet Showcase in Walt Disney Planet was Norway back in 1988? That is proper it has been 35 years given that a new pavilion has joined the 11 nations featured in EPCOT’s centerpiece attraction! Each and every now and once again, I like to take a moment to armchair Imagineer the subsequent pavilion that could join the lineup. Will it replace an current pavilion or be a brand new one particular to build fortunate quantity 12? Is quantity 12 fortunate? I do not believe it is, but possibly, it could be!

Back to the subject at hand, I believed today’s weekend activity could be a new round of ideas for a new Planet Showcase pavilion. I will not even cheat. Of course, I am biased and have all my votes firmly entered for Australia having said that, for the sake of the challenge, I am going to go in a diverse path altogether.

This round, my choose for a new fictional Planet Showcase pavilion is Greece! I hope you study that in a mixed-accent-sounding Olympics announcer voice. Right here is my pitch, the meals. The finish. Halloumi, Tzatziki, Calamari, Moussaka, Dolmades, Spanakopita you get the thought. So a great deal deliciousness all in one particular cuisine. If that weren’t sufficient, the culture, the music, the traditions, Opa! I want it all. Envision a mini version of Soarin’, that flies more than the Greek coastline more than the Aegean Sea and about Santorini. There would be dancing and celebration in a My-Significant-Fat-Greek-Wedding-style festival.

Quick of Australia, that is what I want to see. Greece. What would you envision for a new EPCOT Pavilion and why?
