EPCOT's 30th Anniversary October 1st,2012

We are back from our Fall trip and had a BLAST, especially at EPCOT's 30th celebration. 
On October 1st, we took our time to wander EPCOT from the park's opening ceremony to the park's Fantastic 30th Anniversary Illumination closing celebration. We listened to a few speeches in the afternoon, sipped on some Margaritas listening to 90's Pop group Sugar Ray, purchased some limited edition 30th Anniversary merchandise, then staked out our spot between Mexico and Norway to watch the night go out with a bang.  Take a look at some of our pictures and video of the 30th Anniversary tag to Illuminations.
This is just a sampling of the fun we had, stay tuned there is so much more to come!
Each guest through the turnstile got one of these
Crowds gathered early to mark this celebration.

The crowd sang One Little Spark before rope drop

Extra barges and fireworks were being added all day to Illuminations



It was a beautiful day
Three sets performed by Sugar Ray made the evening enjoyable

The 30th Anniversary Tag to Illumination was amazing. Here is our recording of the Tag.  There was so much going on around the lagoon, I choose to focus on the  higher fireworks.It is not the best video because of the camera trying to continually focus but the grand finale comes through just fine.










Good Bye EPCOT, thanks for the party see in Spring of 2013!
Now that we are home, we have well over 1200 pictures to sort through. So stay tuned for Photo tours of Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party, Twilight Zone of Terror 5k Haunted Trail Run, Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios,  and sooooo much more.
