Epcot

Things I liked...
- that my son had a good time
- the French pastries
- The British Invasion
- The World Showcase Players' Camelot
- Soarin'
- Fast Passes

Things I didn't like
- $200 Princess Dinner in Norway
- the fact that none of the "countries videos" have been updated in 20 years
- why the USA insists on painting itself in negative light, but China and France come off like cultural icons with much more sordid histories.
- the number of drunks by the end of the day...much resembled a college frat party...stumbling, cursing, toungues down each others' throats, groping, hands all over fannies...all with tons of families there...you'd think the Mouse would do something here, not encourage it.

I'm not sure the good outweighed the bad. I'll have a hard time going back to Epcot.

Epcot was my least favorite of the Disney parks we visited. I was a big fan of the newest one, though. It had the Tower of Terror and the Rock and Roller Coaster and Who Wants to Be A Millionaire.

When we were at Epcot, we didn't see any drunks. Kelsey made a comment during the ride in that big ball when they said the earth was formed millions of years ago by saying, "That's crap, dad." I'd rather have the drunks than the propoganda.

Oh, and one other thing: The Mouse is about the money. The Mouse may act like they're about family fun and such, but make no mistake, their morality will go out the window if there's a way to make a buck and look good doing it.

And there's gold in them thar drinks...especially under the guise of "touring the world" and making it look all educational.
