Rebekah, Piglet and Leah
Rebekah was 14 months old and Leah was 3.5 years. This time, we stayed at the Contemporary Resort. We were booked for an outer wing room. When we arrived, we were delighted (and a bit shocked) to find ourselves with a free upgrade to the main building, 12th floor concierge. The room was modern, clean and new, and the view from our balcony was spectacular! In addition to Disney's year-long celebration of their 50th anniversary, Epcot was celebrating their annual "Flower Power" festival month, including fragrant, colorful gardens, numerous character topiaries, and several open-air concerts.
