The Very Nimbus Diary of zorac, Day Five

Our last day in the parks was at EPCOT, the park of two halves. In the morning, we did parts of future world, featuring (among other things), the Big Giant Golf Ball (aka Spaceship Earth), Honey, I Shrunk the Audience (yet another 3D movie thing), Body Wars (Star Tours-like motion ride with synchronised video) and the all-new Test Track - fun, if sometimes violent and very fast.

Afternoon saw us working our way around the World Showcase (a.k.a the Magic Snackdom - and yes, we did indulge). Not heavy on the rides (beyond a gentle log-flume in a Viking boat), this was more a sightseeing trip. A special mention goes to the "Human Statue" who was doing a hilarious job posing for photos with the tourists. It's all very authentic - and yet at the same time, all very fake. Dinner was at the Rose and Crown - a fair stab at faking up a British pub, where we did have an excellent view for the evening's fireworks.
