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!
