Disney adventure part III: Epcot


We stayed at the cheapest Disney Value Resort- Pop Century Resort, the room is clean and spacious, there is no complaint from us at all.

I had friends who asked me about the difference between staying in Disney Resorts and outside resorts which are relatively cheaper. The important difference is Disney Resort guests are able to enjoy "Magic Hours" at all Disney themeparks. Everyday there will be a specific park which either opens 1 hour earlier or closes 3 hours later than the official opening/closing hours. Only Disney Resort's guests who showed their room card will be admitted to the rides, but bear in mind there will be no fast pass available at the magic hours, you will still need to Q for 45 mins to 1 hour. And also all the parks are so big, we are exhausted by the official closing hours, the only themepark which we made use of the magic hours is EPCOT (Every Person Come Out Tired).

Epcot is made up of 2 world, the Future World and World Showcase. World Showcase feature a lagoon in the middle of pavilions which showcase different cultures of 11 countries. I like the different restaurant in each showcase, for exmple,in UK there is fish and chip, we ate at the Biergarten with its own micro-brewery in Germany. The most memorable attraction in Epcot is the IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth, it feature fireworks, lasers and water fountain at the lagoon. Kenny's fave ride is the Test Track which model after a real car test drive through braking, climbing and tight turns.
