Epcot here we come! We took the Disney bus system to Epcot which is divided into two main parts: Future World and World Showcase. We started in Future World and did the Journey to Mars, Test Track, and the Sea, and Land exhibits. In the land section they have the Soaring Over California ride like at California Adventure at home. It is a great ride and we enjoyed it as much as ever. In the sea exhibit there is a huge circular aquarium with a large variety of sea life. I finally got to see some Florida manatee in one section of the exhibit. When we finished the Future World part of the park we walked around the enormous lake to the World Showcase. We tried to get reservations at the steakhouse in the Canada pavilion but it was booked for the rest of the week so we called and got reservations at Biergarten Restaurant in the German pavilion. We went through a couple of pavilions before it started raining again. We continued and covered about half of them. We saw the America show twice because I kept nodding off and missed so much the first time around. It was a really good show with over 35 animatronic characters on stage telling the story of America’s history. By the time we finished there it was almost time for our dinner reservations. After dinner we had to walk for about 40 minutes just to get to the exit and then make the bus connections to get home. This vacation stuff is really hard work – tomorrow we might take the day off!
