Did you know that the final pavilion to enter the EPCOT Planet Showcase in Walt Disney Planet was Norway back in 1988? That is appropriate it has been 35 years considering that a new pavilion has joined the 11 nations featured in EPCOT’s centerpiece attraction! Each now and once more, 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 1 to generate fortunate quantity 12? Is quantity 12 fortunate? I do not feel it is, but perhaps, it could be!

Back to the subject at hand, I believed today’s weekend activity could be a new round of recommendations for a new Planet Showcase pavilion. I will not even cheat. Certainly, I am biased and have all my votes firmly entered for Australia nonetheless, for the sake of the challenge, I am going to go in a distinctive 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 concept. So significantly deliciousness all in 1 cuisine. If that weren’t adequate, the culture, the music, the traditions, Opa! I want it all. Visualize 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-Major-Fat-Greek-Wedding-style festival.

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