Epcot day of magic

"When I was marching down Main Street, I almost cried." "Thank goodness for Fast Passes" The BHS Msrching Band's day at Epcot proved to be the hottest day of the week, with temperatures reaching the high 80's with not a cloud in the sky. Favorite rides at Epcot included Test Track, Mission Space, and Soarin'. These rides ran out of Fast Passes by early in the evening, as the band took full advantage of waiting in shorter lines. Many of the band students got pictures with characters at Epcot, including Mickey and Minnie and Mary Poppins. Touring the world showcase gave students the chance to try out foods from various countries, including crepes from France and Japanese food from Japan at Teppan Edo (a favorite restaurant among band-ees and chaperones). The end of the day Epcot Illuminations show was amazing with fireworks, fire, laser lights, and music. The kids were more tired today from the heat and from walking the length of the park over and over. Looking forward to Animal Kingdom and the sad band departure on Friday.
