Wednesday 27th December 2006: Epcot and Candlelight Processional
Then we went on a ride called Universe of Energy which was great fun. We wandered through the showcase, stopping for chips in the UK pavilion. Then we went a concert called the Candlelight processional, which is a Christmas concert with an orchestra and choir - it was good, but maybe a little too long as it was soooo cold!
Then we looked around the countries a bit more and finally went on Spaceship Earth (It's a ride inside the Epcot ball and it travels through time), which Celsey and Beth had been really looking forward to all day, but didn’t really like that ride as I found it rather boring.
We came back to the Commons at about 2200 and then went out again for dinner. We walked to a restaurant called Bahama Breeze, a Caribbean restaurant. In Orlando there are sprinkler systems everywhere set on a timer on the sidewalks to come on at night to water the grass. We got caught in a set of these sprinklers for about 100m. There was no way of getting round them and we literally had to keep running to get through them! It was so funny. So we arrived at Bahama Breeze at 2300 very wet! However the food was really nice so it makes up for us all getting wet.
Today is my day off thank god. So I had a bit of a lie in and then Celsey and I met Beth at Epcot after she finished work at 1545. Firstly we went to Character Connection which is where you can have your photos taken with lots of different characters. We met Mickey (The Boss), Minnie, Pluto, Goofy and Chip n' Dale. It was great!
