Day 6

We had not yet visited Animal Kingdom and so that was our day park. Our heads were still stuffy, so we brought our antihistamines with us - thing is, neither of us really felt sick, just stuffed up!

We rode the Safari twice - and - catastrophe! The camera stopped working! The memory battery - the little one, a button sized that could not be found in the entire park - had run down. We had a backup camera, the one that fits in our waterproof housing, but not with us. We videoed most of the rest of the stuff, knowing we can take images off the tape if we want to.

We split our time between Africa and Asia, rode Everest and Kali (hardly got damp!) and ate at Yak and Yeti, which was very good and decidedly worth the table credit. The fried wontons were amazing!

We rode Dinosaur and headed back to the resort at around four, then swam and changed and headed back to Epcot.

No bags, no tripods, just wallets and the backup camera in a tiny pouch! NO BAGS!!! We ate a decent burger at Electric Umbrella and then rode Spaceship Earth again, poked through Mousegears, did Test Track twice, and finished off with Mission Space Orange - or as the Ts we made for the occasion said, "I Survived Mission Space - Full Throttle!" And we had no real negative side effects - nothing like the first time we rode!

Firsts - Yak and Yeti (and Yum), NO BAGS AT EPCOT!!!

Tips - Bring ALL the batteries your camera might need, not just the obvious ones. Bring a backup camera if you have one!

Sorry to hear about your camera!

Isn't the "no bag" line at the entrances just great? We do our best to have no bags, just so we can get into the parks sooner

What a great day! Sorry about your camera. Wow! No bags! I can't wait for the day that we can go to Disney and not have to carry bags!! Someday...once DDs are much older. LOL

I have to agree, no bags is heaven! That's why my DW goes through the bag line and the boys and I do the no bag line!

Thanks for posting.

Thanks for the Report!

Glad you enjoyed your meal at Yak & Yeti.

I cannot tell a lie - I've never been to a park where we don't have some type of bag. How nice!

[faline]

I've never managed to enter without a bag either! Other than the battery issue, this was another lovely day!

Thanks for the report.

What a fun day. I don't know if I could make myself tour the parks without a purse. Thanks again for sharing.
