Walkabout The World - A Disney Podcast - Epcot Impressions de France

Episode Date: October 26, 2022

Bonjour Travelers! Join host Josh this week in Epcot for a mid-week bonus trip to experience Impressions de France!   Disney says: "Be transported to another time and place, a land of princesses and enchanted castles, as the Loire Valley and its magnificent chateaux appear in a stunning 200-degree widescreen view.  On your virtual journey, ride along with horsemen and hunting dogs in the Cheverny Forest, reflect on the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles, visit a bustling marketplace in Normandy and see vintners and cognac makers at work.  Watch Bugattis racing in Cannes, hot-air balloons floating along the Loire and celebrate Bastille Day in grand Gallic fashion as you listen to an emotional soundtrack by French composers like Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel and Paul Dukas."   As always, use good listening devices as we always record in 4 channel surround sound.

Well hello travelers! Welcome back to Walk About the World, your weekly audio stroll through the parks and resorts of Walt Disney World and hey on occasion stroll through Disneyland in Anaheim, California. My name is Josh and once again I'm behind the mic as your co-host as we share this lovely evening. We're back at Epcot. I'd like to share tonight with you one of the last remaining original attractions here at Epcot. Anybody know what that might be, travelers? If you said Impressions de France, the movie in the France Pavilion, you'd be correct. Give yourself a pat on the back, a gold star, and a sticker. One of those scratch and sniff ones from the 80s and 90s because those were awesome. So we're going to check out the Impressions de France movie.

I'm not going to do an outro today. I'm just going to have a seat. You can sit right next to me and enjoy the wonderful French composers and their music and the original compositions as well that were created for this movie. If you've never seen it, it's a must-see. I love this film. So, without further ado,

I bid you adieu. Enjoy Impressions de France, travelers. Thank you. Among gentle spirits of the air, my France the wicked with the early dawn. and give her a little. ¶¶ The End ¶¶ ¶¶ LSp4 2.70 The true heart of my country grows on the joy of our people, from villages and family farms of the most fertile land in all Europe. Oh, my God. What a discovery. Can't you imagine? Just imagine. Imagine.
