No votes yet for Italy or Morocco... Aren't there any fettucine alfredo or couscous lovers out there? :wink:

I was about to say the same thing....I'm really suprised at Italy having none as of yet. Now Morocco...I never understood how it got a space and something like Brazil, Russia, Australia, or something didn't. Morocco is such a random country. How often does Moroccan culture come up in your daily life?

Our favorite is Norway. We love the ride and the character breakfast. The shops are cool although some of the clothing was a little (OK WAY OUT) of our price range. I also really enjoy Mexico.

A large donation from the government (aka Royal Family) of Morocco. Interesting bit of trivia: Morocco is the only pavilion in Epcot to be sponsored by its corresponding government.

Between Canada, Norway and the UK. Canada has my favorite song, Norway has the best ride and UK has the best restaurant.

Extremely tough choices, Japan and China are very peaceful and serene - often nice in the crowded and hot days. Canada has the gardens and the architecture, France has the great movie, the list goes on. But I think Mexico tops it, good food and amazing interior work with the eternal night market place!

Norway.

I normally NEVER visit world showcase when i'm at epcot, simply because it's not worth it. I love future world, but World Showcase isn't for me. Anyway, I do like norway, but only because they have a ride.
It's quite fun. I never watch the movie at the end though.

Out of curiosity, would many of you have picked America if it were included in the poll?

I haven't voted but that's only because I can't decide! I love them all for different reasons. Canada has Le Cellier (and I'm Canadian), Mexico has amazing theming and a ride, Norway has all the cute trolls (what can I say? I'm weird lol!) and an extremely amusing narrator on the ride, Germany has awesome teddy bears and really cute cm's :D and I could go on and on about all the different areas.

I would have voted for it. I can't even describe the feeling I have when I've seen the American Adventure show in person, and the Golden Dream song is playing at the end. It reminds you that even with its many faults, ours is the greatest country in the world when it comes to the ability to live your dreams.
