| We went on it in Jan. It is a 4 hour walking tour. It was very
interesting. Your tour guide shows how the building are constructed
to look like the same height, even if one is 4 stories another one is
2. The bricks become smaller.
The Canadian garden is planted with different flowers based on the
season. We were in Jan, so the flowers were white for snow.
At Morraco (sp), we learned that the king sent 21 of his personal
artist to build the showcase.
At Mexico, the reason it is dark inside, is because that the way it
is. If it was bright and sunshine, it would be siesta time.
Japan exhibit used to be brightly color, until the ambassador for Japan
came over and stated that was not the Japanese way. China is noted for
it bright colors, Japan is more subdule (sp).
Plus we say some interesting features that are there, but you never see
them, they are usually tuck away.
We also went behind EPCOT center. We saw the backside of EPCOT.
We saw the clothing section (65 tons of laundry a day, 9000 pieces
of clothing). Where they do hairstyling and wigs, etc.
There is a good chance you will see characters out of character,
Mickey walking with his head under his arm, no one under 16 is allowed
on the tour.
It was definitely worth it. Again, it is 4 hours with 30 minutes for
lunch, they stop by the American exhibit, so that was handy and
convient.
I would do it again. The tour holds about 20 people and your guide is
can dress in personal clothing. Do you know
that females must year shoes with heels high enough that a pencil can
slide underneath.

| Call WDW 407-560-6150. That is the Educational Service dept. or
something like that. They have all the details. It starts at 10:30,
last for 4 hours.
If we call the main number for Disney or EPCOT number, they do not know
about it. It is not very well publicized.
