Happy New Year 2012!

Happy New Year!!! Hard to believe that 2012 is here! I had a nice time last night ringing in the new year at Epcot! I walked around the world and got something to eat or drink in almost every country. I had a glass of wine in France, a beer in Japan, a bratwurst in Germany, a glass of champagne in Norway, a chicken dinner in Morocco, and pizza in Italy!  If I had to pick a favorite country at Epcot I think it might be France or maybe its because I just watched midnight in Paris and I have France on the brain. Paris is one of my favorite cities. I love the architecture.. the atmosphere..  it's such a beautiful city.

 They had 2 fireworks shows last night- one at 7 which was more of the normal show they have at Epcot and another that started at 11:40 and ended with a huge countdown and finale! I have never seen so many fireworks at once! The show was really neat in that the announcer stated "at 10am this morning Japan celebrated the new year and now we will celebrate with them" and fireworks went off behind Japan... and they did that with each country represented at Epcot until it was time for our countdown. They also had DJ's and dancing in a few of the areas. Overall it was a fun and memorable way to ring in the new year! Now I'm getting ready for work, hopefully it won't be too busy tonight. I have 4 days off in a row this week! Not sure what to do with myself! Well I hope everyone had a safe and fun New Years!

Here is a link to the finale and countdown at Epcot! Enjoy!     http://youtu.be/zf9FW0UdYlU
