It was fantastic! far more amazing than I remembered. Test Track remains one of my favorite Disney attractions and I got to ride Soarin and Mission: Space for the first time. I have a few thoughts on those two. Mission Space was great, I love the queue and the preshow and the ride system is great. I've always loved space and Nasa so I thought it was an amazing attraction. Soarin was a different story, I like the ride system and the ride overall was great, but the queue and the preshow were terrible. The preshow was silly, it reminded me of the guy from the insurance commecials. But that was the only bad thing from the whole day. We even got a Duffy and did the Duffy meet and great, which was great. Hes a pretty cute character and I hope the Disney community warms up to him.

Anyone been to Epcot recently and if so what did you think?

Amazing. I love to hear that people had a great time (doesn't happen here that often) Lol. Went to Epcot couple weeks ago and also found it amazing. Such a big and amazing park with TONS of stuff to do. The rides in Future World except for Figment are amazing and I tend to go on all of them every time I go. Glad to hear you had a great time. =)

Yeah all the attractions were great, I had a really good time. I think Living With The Land is a very underrated attraction I really liked the second part of the ride that tours the experimental agriculture area. Also in China, The Reflections of China show was really interesting.

I think the quality is amazing with the whole park. Detailing in every park is very great. I love future world and going into the different shops and watching their shows.

So glad you had a wonderful time! Epcot is a truly wonderful place... and there is nothing else in the world like it. I love when I read things like this :)

I love EPCOT too, Future World is a little disappointing when compared to many years ago..Horizons, etc, but I do like a lot of it. But the best part is all the countries! I thought it would be boring for my 4 yr old son, but just the opposite, just got him a passport and KIDCOT at every country was the greatest! Love wandering the streets of all the countries!

Epcot by far is mine and my daughter's favorite park! We actually find it very relaxing...all the walking, looking out over the lagoon, experiencing each country differently and finding something new each year we go back, Illuminations (nothing like this event!) - Soarin, Test Track....we love Living with the Land and plan on doing a behind the scenes tour soon, Garden Grill for the yummy food - everything about Epcot is wonderful!

Forgot to add LOVE Teppan Edo also and my sister just got back and said Via Napoli pizza is to die for! lol

Thanks everyone. I think the next visit we are doing DHS, because my girlfriend hasn't been. I'm sure we'll enjoy it as much as the Epcot trip.

Oh and I alost forgot. We went to Kringla Bakeri in Norway and had the Cloudberry Horn. You should try it, its a really good pastry. its sweet but not too much and the cast in the bakeri were really nice and helped us a pick a pasty.

This was the first year I've been to Disney in 3 years, and we only went for one day, but we went to EPCOT. It was something we had to do after the recent success of my posters I designed. We went in telling ourselves that we wanted to do things we haven't done in a long time, and we had a blast doing it.
One of my favorite oldies that we hadn't done in probably 10 years was Living With the Land. I think it was because I understood it more now that I'm older. So cool to see the greenhouses. We also did more things in the World Showcase like seeing the drummers at Japan, the acrobats at China, and stopping in Germany to enjoy their holiday beers.
I will say though, that the American Adventure show is rediculously dated and boring, and I didn't enjoy Captain EO. Thought it was too strange and not very entertaining.
But otherwise, I love EPCOT!
