What's at Epcot?

Well, besides the obvious and oh-so-visible golf ball, AKA Spaceship Earth, ride there's actually quite a bit to see and do at Epcot. We were so very lucky that the crowds were very tolerable, it made for an easy paced day. We had to stop and take the 'look where we are' picture......and I then had to give my brother a hard time about this one since he didn't zoom in and cut that lady out of the frame! Hey, what's one more in the picture?! She looks a little awestruck, don't you think?
Gregory tried his 'hand' at creative photography. He was very excited to tell me that he took a picture of himself holding the golf ball. Goof ball!
As soon as we got into the park we hightailed it to TestTrack and got our fast passes. The kids loved this ride and it may possibly have been the ride that we rode the most after all was said and done! Here we are NOT waiting in line....yeah!
They are buckled up and ready to test out their car.......
You know, pushing around 75lbs of child can be downright tiring. The darn stroller doesn't corner very well with that much weight either! I can't complain too much since Bill pushed most of the time. Thank goodness we had it though since everytime Laurel had to walk more than 10 feet she complained that her feet and legs hurt.
We visited England.....do you know how many people you can squeeze into a red telephone booth?
How about a couple more?
After dragging ourselves around all day...and by the way there is a LOT of walking involved with Epcot, a lot of going around the long way because there is no short way......we managed to find Pooh and Tigger ready to sign the kids autograph books. These were the first characters to sign their books since we were meanies the day before in Magic Kingdom and stopped for NO characters.

Day 1 at Epcot was fantastic and we were very glad that we had another day there planned. Next up...Hollywood Studios!

Mr. Gregory and I are trick photography kindred spirits! (I embarrassed my sister to no end making her take a thousand shots of me pretending to hold up the Leaning Tower of Piza until we got it just right.)

Show him this one and give him a 'high five' from me! :0)
