Day 1: A Magical Beginning

A Walt Disney World start to this year's GCA Summer Tour made us feel like VIPs at 7 a.m.

One of the big perks to going on a GCA garden center tour is the access...the VIP access. Our first stop of the tour was a behind-the-scenes tour of Walt Disney's "show" production area and Animal Kingdom. From there we went on to visit two garden centers - Kerby's was neat and organized, while EarthScapes offered a place to escape (and plenty of places to sit).

The Disney production area was between shows, but there was still plenty of "character" behind the scenes.
