I’m doing my blog using voice controls standing in line to get on Soarin at Epcot. I will describe our day at Epcot little bit later.
Sleeping was horrible last night. Denise gave me a sleeping pill and I believe the sleeping pill caused me to get a very dry mouth. The same happened last night on the airplane. So at 2:30 AM I woke up to use the restroom and had a real hard time going back to sleep. But, I eventually fell back to sleep and woke up around 8 AM. Now back at our condo, food is a bit scarce. We ate snacks for breakfast, which was perfectly fine. I ate pretzels filled with peanut butter. I'm not sure what Denise ate. Michelle and Jeff get their systems going by drinking prune juice (Dr Pepper) as their morning breakfast juice.
Jeff decided this morning that his legs and feet were not doing well. They were really swollen. So he decided to stay home. Denise, Michelle and I all came to Epcot center to enjoy the day. Fortunately I put in extra clothes, some long pants and a long shirt. What a blessing that is been. It is really cold here today lots of clouds and small winds. At the end of the day, it was 47 degrees. Pretty cold here.
Upon arriving at Epcot center Michelle decided that she would get one of the jazzy scooters taking around the park. That has been pretty fun to watch. Park attendees did not know that they should have taken insurance out with her driving this thing. I've seen it hit two walls, a couple of poles keeping lines in order and so on. Definitely a crazy driver she has been but giving us all some really fun laughs along the way.
Epcot center is a slow pace as you go from country to country around this lake. We’ve enjoyed staying warm by watching all the cool movies\shows that each country has. For lunch, we had burgers and hot dogs. Yes...go figure with all the good foreign food around, that is what we ate. So embarrassing. But, it was better than what Jeff was eating. He had no car back at the condo. So he was surviving on Buffalo Pretzels, cheese crackers and Dr. Pepper. He was still alive though when we returned back.
One of the fun things that Denise and Michelle did was to go into the various shops, seek out hats pertinent to that country and then put the on and get pictures. In Canada, we saw some cool hats that the 'Cast Members' were wearing. But the guy said they no longer sell them. He offered his hat to them but after I said she had head lice, he retracted his offer. It was pretty funny watching his young face.
Naturally, cold and all, we closed the park down watching the big show over the lake. It was a really fun day in many ways, more so than I'd ever admit in public. Tomorrow...cruise day. We're all kind of excited about that!

The scooter lady! (Way too much fun!)
Hats around the world...you decide what country they are in. And ignore the photo bomber in the first pic!
