Does anyone remember Maelstrom at EPCOT? These two carts in Disney’s Fort Wilderness Golf Cart Parade were themed to the beloved attraction that closed in 2014 to make way for Frozen Ever After. The carts even included Vikings! We always love all the creativity from campsite guests in the seasonal Fort Wilderness golf cart parades. #maelstrom #disneyhalloween #disneysfortwilderness #fortwilderness #wdw #waltdisneyworld #disneyworld #epcot #disneyresort #fortwildernesscampground #fortwildernessre

DisneyWorldTom on Instagram: "It’s been 11 years since we took our final voyage through Maelstrom 🌊🇳🇴, the beloved EPCOT boat ride that carried us through Norway’s legends, trolls, and stormy seas. On this day in 2014, the doors closed for good to make way for Frozen Ever After. ❄️ For so many, Maelstrom wasn’t just another ride, it was a journey through mystery, myth, and memories that still echo through World Showcase today. 💙 Who else remembers drifting past the trolls one last time? 👇 #
