Day 3 was our Epcot day and began with a 9:00am breakfast with the Princesses at Akershus. We had a nice meal that my DD's loved and then it was off to Test Track (I ran over before reservation to get FP). After that is was off to Nemo ride and Turtle Talk. We went to "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" and then spent time at Innoventions and the DD's played with all the interactive fun. The girls had lunch at McD's near Canada and then the skies started to darken. We headed back towards Innoventions and the rain let loose. We waited it out for a little while, but decided to put our ponchos on and headed for the bus back to POFQ. We rested and then decided to head for Downtown Disney for dinner (BIG MISTAKE). As we got to Downtown the skies completely opened up and it poured in buckets for about an hour. We made a run for Rainforest Cafe and were soaked when we arrived. We ate and dried off a little and then shopped a bit and headed back to POFQ to dry off and get new clothes.

Highlight: DD's faces at Princess breakfast
Lowlight: Being soaked to the bone

Goodness! You're reminding me of the trip we took when we had a few days of solid rain! Family memories created at Disney World are still good - even if they're a bit soggy!

- thanks for sharing-
We dealt with the same a few weeks ago
The rain is tough to deal with, but at times its a savior, we had our ponchos and rain coates and i think its actually easier to deal with the rain then the heat- because the crowds lighten up.

I can remember a few times that those Florida skies have opened up on us while at WDW. It is amazing how much water can come down in a very short period of time. sorry you got caught in that, but it will become a favorite family memory when you look back on it. Thanks for reporting. :mickey:
