Hi Sue,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! I think you will love spending the day at Epcot. It looks like you're planning to be there so soon. I hope you plan to arrive with an empty stomach so you can enjoy all of the delights of the
Epcot International Food & Wine Festival. I visited recently and one of my favorites was the Maple Bourbon Boursin Cheesecake with Maple Bourbon Cream, Caramel, and Pecan Crunch at
The Cheese Studio hosted by Boursin Cheese. It makes my mouth water just thinking about it.
The good news for you is you do not need a theme park ticket to visit
Disney's BoardWalk. After your Epcot day, you can visit Disney's BoardWalk by exiting through the International Gateway and walking or taking a boat to the BoardWalk. We love stopping by Disney's BoardWalk to enjoy the entertainment or dine at one of the delicious restaurants. My husband and I like to stop at AbracadaBar for a tasty adult beverage and our children like to visit Ample Hills Creamery for ice cream. I'm sure you will find a lot to love at Disney's BoardWalk.
Sue, thank you for visiting us with your question. I hope you'll let us know if you have any other planning questions!
Wishing you a magical visit,
Amy H.
