“Life In The So-Called Space Age”
Epcot has a coke exhibit where visitors can taste coke products from all over the world. Amongst the current selections; a vegetable drink from Japan, a coke/orange mix from Germany and a carbonated watermelon drink from China. Of course the ones I tasted seemed medicinal to my palette, but KLS said some were ‘ok’ 🙂
Soarin’ is a great ride. Riders sit in seats like you see here, and are then lifted up and forward until they are suspended in front of a MASSIVE screen. Video taken from the air is then played, during which the seats bank and turn as if on a hangglider. The effect is very convincing, especially since it is coupled with wind and even smell (at one point you ‘fly’ over an orchard and orange scent is pumped in). One of the best rides in any Disney park.
I look miserable don’t I? I was angry at the outrageous cost of our measly breakfast! Oh well, that’s behind us now. This very moment we’re in line waiting to ride Soarin’, the hanggliding simulator at Epcot. We’ll be in the park until about 2pm, then we’ll return the car and head to the airport.
