Epcot

This morning we were at Epcot by 8:15 am. It was definitely worth getting there early! We parked right up front and we rode several rides before it became crowded.

Mission: SPACE was the first ride we rode. We worked as a team to go on a mission to Mars. Tucker wasn't sure about the ride at first, but then really liked it. It was empty enough that we actually rode it again.

We joined Nemo in the "Clamobile" to visit underwater friends.

Tucker was fascinated by the big "Golf Ball" and wanted to know how to get in it, so we then rode Spaceship Earth (which goes inside the "Golf Ball"). We rode a time machine vehicle to explore the story of communication on Earth. It was really interesting traveling through time. Tucker was fascinated by the huge computer system they showed to be the 1st computer.

Our favorite ride was the ride called Fast Track. It simulated a car "test driving course". We even rode it 2 times. (Thanks to using the Fastpass.)

Living with the Land was another great ride. This was a boat ride that started off questionable, but then we ended up amazed when we rode through the Greenhouses and fish farms. We saw all kinds of plants growing, such pineapple plants, coconut trees, and banana trees. They were showing inventive ways to grow plants. There was a Nine Pound lemon tree, where one huge lemon would make a gallon of lemonade! We saw tomato tree growing as well as pumpkins, eggplants and watermelon growing in the air! Tucker took over the camera during this ride, so here it is from his point of view.

Once again, thunderstorms with lightning ended our fun about 3:30. We were tired and pretty much ready to go anyway.
