Day 7 - Friday 23rd April - EPCOT/Typhoon Lagoon/EPCOT



Today we actually got up early and made it to EPCOT park by 845am for the park opening at 9am. We planned to do the last couple of main rides that we didn’t get done the other day, so we first headed off to Soarin’ along with the masses of other people. This ride is like being in a hang glider flying over different areas of California and by 930 we had done the ride. Strangely, Bubbles was the one to feel a bit seedy after this ride, who would have guessed?

We then headed straight over to Test Track. We enjoyed the ride, but the ride kept stopping in different sections for periods of time, so it wasn’t as fun as it should have been.
Just after 10am we left the park, heading to Typhoon Lagoon again. There was less crowds today than yesterday. We did the slides that we liked best from yesterday again and spent some time in the wave pool.

We again left early afternoon and headed back to the resort for a rest.

We had a 630pm dinner booking a Coral Reef restaurant at EPCOT, so we headed back there at about 5pm. The Coral Reef restaurant has a wall of windows into a big aquarium. The meal was great and watching all the fish, rays, sharks and SCUBA divers was lots of fun.

After dinner we found a spot to watch Illuminations, a fireworks and lightshow located on lake in the world part of the park. The show was great, with the fireworks really close.
After a bit more of a wonder around the park, we headed back to the resort.

Distance walked: approx 8km.
