Epcot Round 2

We headed to Epcot again for a fairly relaxed morning. We started with Space Ship Earth, which is the ride inside the giant Epcot ball. We rode in carts that moved passed scenes of major points in human history, such as the invention of fire, paper and the printing press. Sweet Pea was fascinated by this ride.




Next Grandma Trudy took Sweet Pea to get her face painted while Ross and I waited in line for the Sum of All Thrills. This ride was exactly the sort of thing that Ross and I love. You get to use a computer to design a roller coaster and then get strapped onto to the end of a huge Kuka Robotic Arm, with a virtual screen over your head which simulates tr ride.




Below is a picture of the Kuka arm. The upper left is where we were seated and then the arm waves all around to simulate the motion of your roller coaster. Next time: More Loops!



Here is Sweet Pea's lovely face painting.





We then visited wonderful playground in Pixie Hollow.



Isn't this neat?




Sweet Pea didn't want to leave. We sat inside a little dome and
pretended to bake a cake out of the rubber mulch.




After the playground, grandma Trudy went to buy a pair of sicks and we went through Bambi's Butterfly Garden.










We were supposed tower Grandma Trudy back at the Figment ride, but there was a little mix up and she got on before we arrived. After the ride, there are activity stations for kids. The idea was good, but the computers were really slow and I think the whole area needed an update. Below Amelia trying make a melody with her arms.




Once we met back up with Grandma Trudy We we're all ready to head back to the cabin. When we arrived, our mousekeeper had created another towel animal. Is this a hippo?
