Day Three

As planned, we slept in and sauntered in to Epcot around Noon. It was hot and the place was packed. We went to get a Test Track Fastpass but the signs said the fastpasses for all the good rides (about three at Epcot) were all getting really late already. So we decided instead to go across the park and get a Soarin' Fastpass instead. This turned out to be a great move.

We then ate a Quick Service lunch at Seasons. NIGHTMARE! Again, the food was great but the service was a nightmare. We were packed in like sardines and the lines were screwed up because the manager was telling people to line up one way and the order-takers were telling people to do the exact opposite which was causing mass confusion.

Then we went and got in line for the Test Track. The line had gone down considerably. We were pretty lucky like this all week. In the whole week we never waited in line more than 40 minutes for anything. Most of the time we only had to wait 15-20 minutes. We kept lucking out on ride lines. (The bus lines were another story!)

We enjoyed Test Track and then went and rode Mission: Space which was really cool. We then headed to the World Showcase where you walk thru all the countries. When we got to Norway there is a ride called the Maelstrom. Do not ever waste your time on this waste of real estate.

We then strolled thru some more countries on the the way to Alfredo's where we checked in a little early for dinner. OK-this place was fantastic and delicious! You will absolutely have the best lasagna in your life if you try it. My solemn promise. Tina tried mine and agreed. She had the Fettuccine Alfredo which was also very good.

On our way out of Italy we happened upon a street showing of "Romeo and Edna" which was really funny. Our family doesn't usually enjoy stuff like that but we all agreed it was funny.

We then went thru the rest of the nations on our way to Soarin'. That was a great way to end our day at Epcot. It is a fantastic ride.

Then we went and spent a bunch of money on souvenirs and went back to the hotel around 7 pm. We did everything we wanted to at Epcot so we went to the hotel to relax and then went to bed.
