ICYMI: MagicalNewsLIVE in Epcot on Memorial Day
Nick from MagialNewsLIVE took fans all over Epcot on Memorial Day…
Welp, around my section of the United States, Memorial Day was a bit of a dud, weather-wise. Overcast skies, intermittent showers, and cold (for late May) temps.
So, we hearty folk in New England sat indoors much of the weekend and warmed ourselves off the radiation of our computer screens.
That was especially so when Nick of MagicalNewsLIVE streamed from Epcot under sun-kissed blue skies.
Front to Back: Epcot on Monday
