Epcot

We enjoyed our time at Epcot, but it doesn't seem like I took that many pictures.

The first ride we headed to was the popular ride Soarin'. This ride simulates (quite well) flying over a canyon, some mountains, a city at night, a golf course, and many other places. It was so realistic that I had to look at my lap for most of the "flight" so I wouldn't get sick. The kids enjoyed it, though.

We rode Living with the Land. The kids liked the pumpkins with the mouse ears.


The kids enjoyed watching the jellyfish while we waited to watch Turtle Talk with Crush. (It was well worth the wait.)

We also rode The Seas with Nemo & Friends (more hype than ride) and Spaceship Earth (Danielle's favorite here).

Tyler's favorite ride here was the Test Track. He talked about that non-stop for quite awhile afterwards. If you want to get him to talk about vacation, ask about this ride.

After an afternoon of swimming, we came back to Epcot to watch the IllumiNations fireworks, lights, and laser show over the pond. Danielle didn't care for the loud fireworks, but everyone else enjoyed it. The kids especially enjoyed their outrageously expensive light toys. (This was the only souvenir that really caused Ron to grumble.)

Fortunately the kids fell asleep in the van as we left the park and didn't notice we took the scenic route home when someone made a wrong turn exiting the park.

Next: Another day at the Magic Kingdom & lunch at Cinderella's Royal Table
