Epcot’s International Flower & Garden Festival 2010: Preparations Update – Photos and Video

We stopped by Epcot yesterday and were surprised to see so many Epcot Flower and Garden Festival topiaries out! Simba (below, left) is part of a Lion King display that also includes Rafiki and Nala (below, right). There isn’t much new this year, nearly everything has just been shuffled around.
