Disney 2008: Day 6 {Epcot}

Another late start to the day, but we managed to get ourselves over to Epcot in the early afternoon. Went on the Finding Nemo ride first thing, followed by Turtle Talk with Crush. The Nemo ride was cute but not really a whole lot to it- I thought the beach theming in the que area was better than the ride itself. Turtle talk was so great- very interactive. The boys all sat on the floor up front and Patrick got picked to ask Crush a question (the dude in the green and white shell. He asked Crush if he ate any species in the ocean.) and they really dug it. We visited the little aquarium set up they had and saw some cool fish.

At Jack’s request we ate lunch at the cantina in Mexico- and it was really, really good. Even Timmy liked the chicken and chips. While Timmy napped by the lake with Daddy, the big boys and I braved the 75 minute wait for Soarin’. They did have good games to play on the screens while waiting, but it was still a loooooooong wait. The ride itself was really good (Jack didn’t even mind the orange smell wafting in while we were flying over the California citrus farm), but we will definitely have to fast pass that one next time. There were no fast passes left by the time we got there. Live and learn. We also went to the "Honey, I shrunk the audience" show, where the boys had freaked out when they were little. Timmy did pretty well but didn’t like the "mice"- neither did the big boys this time either- or the snake. But we went over to the cool jumping water fountain thing right after the ride and that was so fun. Timmy got a little wet, but not too much. 

We went to Teppan Edo (habachi style) for dinner in Japan. The food was good and Timmy liked the steak with dip. Inatome here is much better, though. Heard Off Kilter playing on our way around the world showcase- they were really good. Picked up a pin from Norway for Jack’s assistant teacher and did some sightseeing before going back to "Epcot" (which is what Timmy calls the big ball that is spaceship earth) and finding the sparkling streets and the fiberoptic designs in the sidewalks. If we had gotten there earlier, we would have hit more of the attractions, but we were tired and done. Had some fun taking some shots in the numbers back at the hotel. One more day to go….
