Today was our day at Epcot. We still haven’t had a warm enough day to shed the long sleeves, but the sun is shinning and back home it is snowing. We got to the park to see the characters singing and dancing for the opening countdown. As soon as the rope dropped every single person in that park headed to “soarin”. It is the most popular attraction and it was a race. Nobody ran, but it was a steady flow and we waited 15 minutes to get on. You sit in seats that lift up and you feel as if you are hang gliding. The screen shows you an image as if you are flying high above the mountains and water in California and you can smell oranges as you soar over the orange fields. I told Jake not to get his feet wet when we soared over the waters, so he lifted his feet up, it was so cute. It was a neat ride. We saw the talking sea turtle Crush. He was pretty cool as he was interactive and could see you and answer your questions. There were lots more rides and shows. One of the favorites was the test track where you ride in a race car and test out brakes, heat, cold, incline, curve, and speed. At noon we had reservations for a Princess Storybook dining. Because we had the dining meal plan our dining was included and we had some very neat dining experiences. Today we ate at Norway and were greeted at the table by the Disney Princess’.
For the afternoon we got a stroller to start our trip through the showcase of lands. We knew that would be the only way to keep Jake going. Turns out he liked it. We made our way through the many lands and Jayden enjoyed having her passport stamped in the different countries. She was always on the lookout for more characters to autograph her book. We spotted Marie from the movie Aristocats. This is Jacob's all time favorite movie, so he was thrilled. He even got a little extra loving from his favorite cat.
We stayed as long as we could and attempted to stay for fireworks at 9, but only made it to7.
