Magic in the Mist

9 August 2010 by Suzannah Otis 7 Comments

While visiting Epcot’s World Showcase again last night, the weather was off and on rain showers all day. The temperature was only around 78º but the “feels like” was at 105º due to the humidity. As a result, when we strolled through Japan, we were treated to a special effect from the mist that puffs out of the bamboo area of the zen garden. The fog had started to hang in the air, lingering like a shroud and making us feel as if we were actually in the Japanese countryside for a moment. It was beautiful and serene. Now if only I’d seen Totoro…

It’s these little moments that make visiting the parks in outrageous humidity worthwhile. I love stopping to appreciate them. Have you had any special experiences like this away from the hustle and bustle? I’d love to hear about them.

About Suzannah Otis

A child of the 80's, Zanna climbed trees and roller-skated till the streetlights came on. She sipped her her first iced coffee at age 10 and never looked back. Growing up outside of Boston, all of these things shaped her life, as did the original EPCOT Center, which brought her where she is today.

Zanna is the mother of 2 adult humans, an 11-year old (also human), and 3 cats. She is also the wife to one husband, who lovingly puts up with all of the above. Zanna tries to find that one little spark in everything, and thanks you very much for taking the time to read this.

    Terrific pictures, Zannah! Had it not been for the World Showcase penant in the background of the first picture, I would have never guessed this was in Epcot.

    Thanks! It was a wonderful case of being in the right place at the right time as the mist dissipated right after we took these pictures. 🙂

    Thanks, Reuben! It’s nice to find these non-theme-park-looking experiences every now and then isn’t it? 🙂
