Our one-year Anniversary Trip to Orlando

We decided as a couple that we will not buy gifts for each other for our anniversary, just take a trip somewhere together. And this year, we decided to go to Orlando, Florida. We went to DisneyWorld Orlando a year after we begin dating, we had a blast. So we wanted to go to Orlando and also check out the new Universal Harry Potter theme park this time.

We were lucky, it just happens to be two special events going on at the same time, Epcot's International Food & Wine Festival and Mickey's Merry Christmas Party. This was so much fun, we loved Epcot last time because you get to drink and eat around the "world" with 10 or so countries. But with the Food & Wine Festival, this is like twice more countries! You get to sample tapas-sized dishes from each country and also their alcohol. We definitely did not expect that and spent way too much money than expected.

I tried to take a picture and the menu board from each country as we go. But you know after my 5th cup of alcohol, I don't even remember if I missed any? There were definitely countries that we skipped like China, when I can make a better Chinese food. LOL

Also they had events like cooking lessons and special bands performing duding this festival. We only had one day at Disney, so we did not get to go see everything that we wanted. But it was so fun! Definitely check it out if you ever have the chance to during that time!
