A quick photo update from Epcot this evening...

Wandered in about 4:30ish..

Spaceship Earth had a line, I knew I was in trouble. Here's the tipboard:

Ok.. Soarin is bad.. I can cope...

And Imagination has a line (they weren't kidding - they had setup their extended queue, though not in use when I wandered by)

70mins for Maelstrom? Oh dear...

Yes, it was very busy at Epcot. Made it over to the Nemo ride. Found a more accurate looking sign...

Why do I say that's more accurate than the shorter wait on the tipboard? Because of the line extends outside the building and wraps around itself.. like this:

At 4:30-5:00pm-ish, that's just not right. Poor wittle merf didn't go on anything at Epcot today. Even Imagination had a line :( Good news, i'm going back Sunday to see Wonders :)

But, I did make my way to Innoventions, which suprisingly did not have a line! The Nanotech "Too Small to See" exhibit is cute and has some nice stuff, but that's in West (where I didn't take any photos)... East is where I found this nifty setup:

It's like retro-funky-cool. Sorta lounge nifty. Here's a closeup of the lamps.

Sure, attraction #14 has nothing in it anymore but some nifty looking lamps and some couches, but I kinda like it. :cool:

I didn't take any other pictures, I know, lame.. but Candelight was packed. The Christmas Tree Lighting was identicle to last year (and just as boring)

Part of Japan came out from tarps. Most of the left tower. The Times Guides uses the entire back back side to list all of the showtimes because of the holiday performances.

Hmm.. what else? That's about it.. only spent about 3 hours in Epcot. Going back on Sunday. Must see Wonders. It was all sparkley today with its lights turned on.
 
Yep... very busy. I went and checked out Holiday Illuminations. It was quite busy. The busiest ive seen EPCOT in a while. They had EMH tonite also.

I caught the very, very end of candlelight. The white part of the chorus was walking off as I walked up there. Also Illuminations is showing at 9:30 now so the candlelight's can finish before Illuminations.

Perhaps it's pulled off of the sign when the queue reaches capacity or when The Land is busy? It's a fairly small queue and there's not an option to extend it.

Hasn't been on the tipboard in ages though... Asked a CM about it just after the rehab. I think they forgot to put it back or don't want to.. but Circle of Life instead of the boats...?

Just because it didn't have a line it doesn't mean that it wasn't packed like crazy!! All day long I had like never ending house and plastic shows. One right after the other right after the other. Toon Tag had a line that was outside the cue!!! o.o Man, I was sweating like crazy that day.

*hisses at that new retro sitting area* Those are hard as heck and it's only a new place for people to leave their mess. =/

And too small to see is tons of fun when I'm there.

Now thats a nice shot. Too bad all those people had to get in the way. There has to be anotherway to wrap that line so it doesn't block that shot, that's one of my favorite places to take a pic of SSE.

You mean like this? I took this during EMH. Nemo was a walk on and I was able to ride it twice in a row.
