Day 7 - Last EPCOT day

Sadly, our last EPCOT day.
We woke late, for us, (8ish) and headed over for a late breakfast (9:30ish).  Rebekah got the Kids Breakfast Platter (again!), I got the chocolate chip pancake platter (yea, again) and John got a small apple spice bread.

It was raining a little out, and radar showed a lot more coming, with severe thunder storms, then clearing for the rest of the day. So we tossed on our ponchos and head over to EPCOT. With the impending HARD but quick rain ALMOST here we decided to head to Ellen's Universe of Energy for a good 45 minute time span. When we were maybe 50 yards from the building, the skies OPENED up! It started POURING sideways and HARD! Within 30 seconds, even with our ponchos on, our left sides were soaked! Eh, who cares, we are still at Disney!

Once we were done in Ellen, it was petty much done raining, thankfully.

John headed to the world showcase for the day without Rebekah and I to slow him down! So Rebekah and I headed to some rides! We did Spaceship Earth, then over to Figment.

We grabbed a quick pretzel, and then hopped on Land boat ride.

 Lovely from every view!

Then we got in touch with John and met up with him in Mexico for a quick lunch. I had the Pollo Tacos (chicken taco), John had Supreme Nachos and Rebekah had the kids empanada. For a quick service, it was very good!

After lunch John headed off to more countries and Rebekah and I head into Mexico, ride the ride and do the Kidcot station. We move on to do a few countries, pin trading here and there. We just wandered in some of the countries until 4, when we had Teppen Edo reservations.

Teppen Edo was very good! Our chef was not much of a showman, but the food was amazing! I got the Filet Mignon, John got the Chicken and Rebekah got the Shrimp.

After supper Rebekah and I do a few more countries, though I do wish I had more time to do them all a little better...I did not see any of the movies or acts in any of them.

Rebekah and I head for one more ride at Figment then to Test Track for our FastPasses. When we got off we decide to do it again in the 20 minute standby, why not!

 Ope House time again!

At this point John caught back up with us and he and Rebekah headed over to the United Kingdom pavilion to watch a concert. I wandered to Spaceship Earth and rode that one last time, said my last (sad) goodbye to EPCOT and headed to the room.

 *sigh* so cool...
 More Spaceship Earth, of course...
More Spaceship Earth, of course...
 More Spaceship Earth, of course...
 Sad-face...last ride
 You are SO welcome!

 Before he left the countries, John got me a School Bread, since I really wanted to try one (very good, if you like coconut).


Steps walked: 20,128 (10.42 miles)
