Epcot: The Future world!
This morning we left kinda late. We didn't leave until 9:15, we stopped at our resort restaurant at Port Royale for breakfast and just got something to go. Since we left so late we didn't get to the park until around 10. We went to Epcot for the day. We love Soarin so we immediately headed over there to see how long the wait was and since it was 50 minutes we just got a FastPass and left. We decided to checkout Michael Jackson in Captain EO, which is a 20 minute 3D Movie. After that it was time to head back to Soarin. Next we headed over to Innovations West to the Visa Card Members Exclusive Character Spot, in which we got to see Goofy and Minnie and get a free picture printed as well! After that we headed over to the World Showcase and we decided to play the Agent P Game in which you help Perry the Platypus beat Dr. Dofenschmiertz. Our assignment was in Mexico. It's pretty cool they give you a phone like it looks like a real cellphone and you get updates just like Perry, but it is definitely aimed for the younger crowd. After that we rode the Gran Fiesta Tour Starring the Three Caballeros also in the Mexico Pavilion, since we could smell tacos that entire time, that was what we wanted for lunch. So, we got lunch at La Cantina de San Angel and we got Tacos con carne and churroitos, really hit the spot! Then we walked all the countries from Mexico, Norway, China, the African Outpost, Germany, Italy, The American Adventure, Japan, Morocco, France, United Kingdom and Canada. Next, we went over to the Living Seas with Nemo and rode that ride! Then we want to get the souvenir pennies from Mission Space, so we walked all the way over there and it was out of order. Seriously! that was across the entire park! Then we headed towards the front of the park and got our free picture printed and finally we went on Spaceship Earth (the ride that goes through the big golf ball)At that point it was a little after 6 and we had dinner reservations for the Flying Fish Cafe at the Boardwalk Resort at 7:50 so we headed over there. We walked pretty much the whole boardwalk and then got in to the restaurant and they gave us a buzzer thing to tell us when our table was ready. Finally at 8:15 they were ready. Now, this is a restaurant that is supposed to be high end as they ask you to dress decent and what not. So, we placed our order and they brought out potato and leek bread (awful) and bringing the bread out in the first place took forever. A while later they brought out our food and my mom and I both got the strip steak with the flounder. It wasn't that great. The steak was a little to much on the crunchy side, both dips sucked, the fish was kinda blah. Our waiter only checked on us once and continued to consistently check on other tables near us more than that. Finally after someone else brought our food and took the plates, he comes back over with dessert menus. My mom ordered creme brulee which she said wasn't that great and I ordered some sorbet the flavors were raspberry, coconut mint and pineapple. The only one that wasn't to sweet was the coconut mint, so that was the only one I ate the whole scoop of, and I don't even like coconut! The fruit they had in it was bad I mean the leaves on the strawberries were partial brown, you mean to tell me you serve browning strawberries to your guests? Needless to say the Flying Fish Cafe was not worth the wait, time or money. After that we came back to our hotel and that's how today went!
