Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival Celebrates Spring in Orlando
If you love spectacular flower displays and have a garden that you enjoy working in, there’s no better place to be March 2nd through March 15th than in Walt Disney World Theme Parks. At Walt Disney World, the Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival will be ongoing for those dates, and a number of special garden related activities are planned for that time. Topiaries shaped like Mickey Mouse, Minnie, and Donald Duck will amaze you while the incredible butterflies in Bambi’s Magnificent Butterfly Garden will give you a colorful show to remember. After looking at each of the displays, you can meet with top horticulturalists to find out how they create these masterpieces and get the gardening tools you need to make your own. It’s an event that is not to be missed even for guests who prefer to look rather than work in a garden!
While you’re celebrating spring in Orlando with the Epcot festival, be sure to take advantage of some of the other great seasonal attractions the area has to offer like the Dolphin Encounter Tour. This tour will take you to the Gulf of Mexico where you can see dolphins in their natural habitat. During your time in the Gulf, you will get to enjoy a delicious picnic lunch before continuing with your adventure. Between seeing the dolphins and experiencing the natural scenic beauty of the Gulf of Mexico, you’re certain to make memories that will last a lifetime!
Another activity you won’t want to miss while you’re in Orlando is the Saltwater Adventures of Central Florida Fishing Charters. This charter will take you out in the open waters off the coast of Orlando to allow you to do some serious deep sea fishing. Captain Keith will show you how to catch a number of fish like redfish, mackerel, tarpon, and even sharks, so you can have a dream fishing experience. From now until December 31st, there is even a family pass available for this fishing experience, so you can save money and still have an experience that the whole family will love!

I went to Disney World as a kid and would love to be able to go back someday with my niece, when she’s a little older. She would love the topiaries.
