Disney, Day 5 - Epcot

Our last day at Disney!  We chose to spend it at Epcot, after much debate.  The attractions didn't seem like things that our girls would necessarily be into, and didn't really excite us either.  I don't remember being the biggest fan of Epcot when I went as a kid...but, in all fairness, that was quite some time ago.  After soliciting input from friends and fellow Disney-goers, we decided to give it a shot.  Mom and Dad were fairly exhausted at this point, so we figured if the park was a fail, the worst that could happen would be that we would leave early, which was not exactly a bad outcome in our minds.

WE ARE SO GLAD WE WENT!  I didn't see this coming, but this park had some of our favorite rides of the whole trip!  We had a great day!  We did feel like we had done everything we needed to do, and seen everything we needed to see by mid-afternoon, but at that point in the trip, that was absolutely perfect.  We aren't sure if/when we'll be back at Disney World again, and we don't regret the decision to hit all four parks while we were there - not. one. bit.

A little more on our day at Epcot...

Obligatory holding up the ball pic.  Check.  (Tourists...)

Thumbs up for conquering our last Disney park!

We were there during the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival.  They had these amazing displays throughout the park.

(Disney animation created the butterflies they're holding, but shhh, don't tell them that.  They think they're magic)

The crowds at Epcot were NOTHING compared to the other parks - YAY!  We didn't have a Fastpass, but had a relatively short wait for Test Track, one of the primary attractions at the park.  This speedster designed her own vehicle, focusing strictly on power.

Lightning McQueen - made out of flowers!  How cool is that?

We love Mater

After Test Track, we went over to Nemo's Reef to enjoy the show

We had a picnic lunch, rode Soarin' (AWESOME!!, but no photography allowed), then set out to walk around the world.

Look!  We're in Paris!

We enjoyed more of the amazing floral displays along our walk.

Another autograph in the books!

We found Buzz Lightyear on our way over to Mission Space

They are just cute.

We had a blast on Mission Space!  There was no line, so we walked off and promptly turned around to ride again.

After a great day at Epcot, we cooled off in this amazing pool (at the resort we were staying).  The girls certainly did not lack for entertainment on this trip.
