I looked at it this way, at least they brought back the actual ride to the pavilion. I have missed it very much.
Even though they did make it very kid oriented now, it is what disney is all about and I think they did a great job on it. I would have wanted to see more of the real part of the aquarium, like the parts looking straight up.
I guess the learnign parts of Epcot are slowly going away to make way of getting people back into Epcot. Its sad but a true fact, people want to be entertained, luckily Dinsey can still add the learning part into alot of the rides without anyone realizing it, hahaha.
