Epcot

One of the biggest surprises of the whole trip was how much we all LOVED ...
EPCOT!
It was awesome! Gorgeous park with fun rides, interactive exhibits, entertaining shows and movies, educational, cultural, ..... SO much fun! I think that it was just about everyones favorite park.



Finding Nemo was darling. Fun ride in a clam mobile and ends in a large aquarium. We did this 3 or 4 times. Crew is still singing the song from the ride. He is so cute! He keeps telling me that he needs to go back to Disney World. :)


My boys and I attempting to be "cool" next to the futuristic car outside of Test Track.
Mission Space was INTENSE! Chase and I were sick for about an hour after - no joke! The G Force is amazing and I was really clausterphobic. Only ride I've ever been on with freezing cold fans blowing right in your face and barf bags on every seat. Maybe we should have requested the less intense side (there are 2 options).

Crew had a blast playing in the water features while Ali and I took the big boys on a couple of rides.
Crew and Grandma also found a "Fairy Rescue Center" - which was a butterfly house.

I'm afraid Crew may have done a little more squishing and not so much rescuing. He tried to be easy!

There are character topiaries all over Epcot. Probably like 100 - no joke!

The World Showcase was awesome - 11 different countries!
We played a Kim Possible detective game. It was actually pretty fun - even though it took about an hour to find all the clues and solve the mystery.




Chase got chosen to be this guys assistant in the Italy show. My boys are not shy at all - he loved all the attention he got for being in the show. They did some pretty cool things. He gave Chase a net and threw a ball about 100 feet into the net which Chase caught! He was a good assistant.



Caden was showing off his mad hula hooping skills as we were waiting for dinner. All the ladies in the kitchen were watching him and on eof them came out and gave him a chocolate dipped Mickey rice krispie treat for being the best hula hooper of the day. He was so excited! I just LOVE Disney World!

Crew was really into taking his picture with the characters.
This was the coolest character spot. One line - indoors and air conditioned - to meet 5 different characters! All the parks should have this!

I cannot believe how much there is to do there! And how much you all did! You sure made the most of every minute you were there! I can't believe there were barf bags on the mission space ride-that is crazy!
