I was in EPCOT this past Wednesday.
-SSE had a 20 minute wait at about 11:15. I really enjoy that ride. I just don't like Judie Dench. The narration is fine but I'd rather have another voice.
-My picture did not work on my second ride and there was no video of me to send home in Project Tomorrow.
-Someone mentioned the street scene in a window next to the now clothed sculpture was missing. Well, it's back now.
-Watched all FoN shows except Celebrate the Future. I later heard the last few seconds at about 10:15 PM
-At 8:00 PM, there was a tone such as that from a grandfather clock played in FW. At each tone, several streams of water were shot rom the FoN; 8 cues for 8 PM. I had never seen this before. Not sure if it is new or if it is hourly.
-There was a refurb wall in the far end of the FW East breezeway, no doubt for the new pavement.
-Noticed the new color schemes for the breezeways as well.
-Test Track was great. 20 minute single rider queue.
-Angler Fish was working in The Seas, as it was on my last trip.
-LwtL was all walled off but I took the Behind the Seeds Tour. Extremely informative and very well worth the small price. Although my father said it does not merit his money...
-Saw one of the Nautilus subs behind the Soarin' building.
-Soarin' was 80 minutes earlier in the day then went up. Rode it using FPs and it really is a fantastic attraction. But it made my father a bit queesy.
-Had a fantastic sandwich at Sunshine Seasons. Turkey, Munster and Chipotle Mayo on Focaccia. Mongolian Beef for dinner. Wanted to try some lamb at Tangerine Cafe but my father isn't adventureous and opted for the same thing he had for lunch at Sunshine Seasons.
-The screen on the left side of Gran Fiesta Tour just before the AA scene was blank.
-Walls were still up infront of the Tequila bar.
-Wall was up between WS Plaza and Mexico for the F&W Festival.
-Wanted to watch the 3 WS films but my father chickened out when I told him they were CircleVision 360.
-In both Mexico and the UK, there were a couple of CMs playing soccer on the promenade with some young kids.
-The torches were lit at the beginning of the RoE pre-show BGM, about 30 minutes prior to the show.
-The first and only glitch in RoE happened right off the bat. The comet launched, the 2 opening Dahlias launched, met up with the comet and just fell back in to the water. They are visible in the video that I took so it must have been a problem with the shells themselves and not the e-matches.
-After that, the show was perfect. The timing on the red strobes is better and the timing of the blue octopi during Celebration was great.
-The strobes on the Earth Barge were not used unlike the last few weeks.
-I'm sorry to say that I have yet to see the elusive overflowing trashcan. Maybe it was an off day?
EPCOT - what an amazing place.
