We were up and out of the hotel early. We drove over to Epcot. When we got there, the park had been open for about 20 minutes and the line for Soarin' was already 50 minutes. I headed over to get fast passes and then met the rest of my family to get in the standby line for Test Track. The line was only 20 minutes, so we were happy. We are a very go with the flow family, not much really upsets us in Disney. We are there a lot so we kind of just do what we can do and whatever we don't get to, will be there next time! Well, just our luck, Test Track broke down also! We hadn't actually made it onto the ride, but it did break down. We actually waited about 40 minutes to board but the trip round to track was great. Even my granparents who are in the 70's loved it! Then Chris took Zack and my mom on Mission Space. I really haven't ridden it the past few trips, I love the concept, just don't care for the feeling I get! I grabbed some waters for my grandparents and we waited inside the pavillion for the rest of the party. We saw the Dream Squad give dream fast passes to everyone who was playing the space race game. After the trip to the red planet it was time for our soarin fast passes. After a great flight over California, we grabbed some lunch from the food court and then headed over to see how the "Nemo line looked. It was 50 minutes and we had ridden it in December, so we didn't want to wait. We checked out inoventions. The rockin' Robots were experiencing technical difficulties, so they were down. We headed back to swim for a while and then met back up at Boatrights for dinner. We had a lovely meal and after Chris and I took my grandmother and all three kids back to Epcot and just did the countries. Malestom wasn't running, but we did ride the new Gran Fiesta ride. I thought the Donald Duck additions were cute. The kids all got passports and we had a great night just strolling around. WE caught illumunations and then headed home for the night. Tomorrow, we are heading to the Studios.

Wow...lots of "out of order" signs in your path, huh? Sounds like you all are taking it in stride though.

Off to read more...

Sounds like a nice mellow day.

All your technical difficulties have even made Intercot break down!

Just kidding.

Thanks for posting your trip reports. I am enjoying reading them.

I have NEVER had a breakdown. A short stop on HM for someone to load and unload, but never a breakdown. Did ride through SM on the TTA and the lights were on....weird.

Hope things get better soon.

My goodness! You certainly did manage to be right where all the "technical difficulties" were occurring!

I don't think I've ever been to Epcot when Test Track wasn't having tech. difficulty or closed for rain. We've enjoyed this ride many times, but many times we've wanted to go on this ride and couldn't because of it being closed down.

Thanks for reporting. How fun to have your grandparents there, so many generations all enjoying the World together!
