Mexico’s Dangerous Secret, Canada’s Hot Gossip, and More Facts EPCOT Cast Members Need You To Know

Sure, EPCOT has a lot of fun rides, but do we really go to EPCOT JUST for the rides?

World Showcase is BEAUTIFUL

We also go for the food (obviously), mostly because we can literally eat and drink our way around the World (Showcase) in a single day! But within each World Showcase country pavilion are Cast Members FROM that country, and some of these international Cast Members recently shared some… interesting facts with us about where they’re from.

Let’s start in Mexico (yes, we ALWAYS start in Mexico, thank you very much) where a Cast Member told us something a little scary (and not, like, La Cava-ran-out-of-tequila scary).

Let’s learn about one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world. 😲 Remind us to stick with the World Showcase version of Mexico, because we’re pretty sure there are no active volcanoes around EPCOT.

Beside Mexico is the Norway Pavilion, home to one of our favorite snacks in Disney World, School Bread. But what do we NOT know about Norway?

Norway

Believe it or not friends, Norway is, in fact, a real country — we know, we weren’t expecting this either. It seems a lot of people get confused about Norway being its own country. Here’s what Cast Members told us.

Did you know the U.K. (aka the United Kingdom) is not one but four countries?

A Cast Member broke down all four countries for us.

Over in Canada, a Cast Member made sure we knew that Canada isn’t always cold.

We’re guessing from what this Cast Member has told us that Canada probably experiences all four seasons (unlike Florida where we feel like we’re melting almost year-round).

The next time you find yourself in World Showcase, don’t miss out on talking to these amazing Cast Members. You might just learn something new and gain a new understanding of how other folks in the world live.
