My 17th WDW Trip – in 2017 too! – Day 6 (Epcot)

We began our morning by checking out of Jambo House
Then we went to Kona Cafe for breakfast at 9:00am
We drove to Epcot and arrived around 10:30am. As we entered Epcot I got to see the Sherry, the cast member who I get some inside info from Being on the job though I didn’t get any new info from her that day.
We considered using our FP+ for Spaceship Earth but that line was moving almost as slow as the standby line. We waited in it for 10 minutes and then decided our time was better spent elsewhere…tiered FP system strikes again!

So we went back to Mouse Gears for a bit and then used our FP+ for Test Track. That wait was not so bad with the FP+ (80 minutes posted without it). Another fantastic ride. Our car design crushed the opposition in power and handling…Efficiency score: 4
From there we toured the World Showcase , seeing Reflections of China, The American Adventure, and O Canada and doing some shopping in between. In Japan we got some shaved ice with sweet condensed milk drizzled on the top. Not a bad buy in the Florida heat for $5!
Around 3:30pm we bid a fond farewell to Epcot and Walt Disney World until next year

Final Thoughts:
Kidani > Jambo due to better room layout for DVC villas, better parking, and being first for bus stops going to/from the parks. The plus side to Jambo is you can book a Standard View room on points and possibly still get a Savanna view like we did (or at least a pool view). At Kidani, a standard view may still be of a parking lot. As it was, we saw zebra, wildebeest, impala, and ostrich every morning!

We got our first timer to experience many signature Disney snacks like and Zebra domes!

Lastly we only missed the following attractions which we attempted to see, but just didn’t have the time:
Flight of Passage
Maharajah Jungle Trek
Indiana Jones Stunt Show
Enchanted Tales w/ Belle
Mickey’s PhilharMagic
Mission: SPACE

Not bad only missing 6 attractions across 4 parks in 6 days in the middle of summer!
