The SalTals Do Disney: Day 3

Day three was glorious because we finally got to sleep in and just kind of chillax in the morning. We had done most of the things on my "Must Do" list so we could take it easy and basically do whatever we felt like. We decide to mosey on through EPCOT because the International Food and Wine Festival was in full swing. Well, that was...uhh, interesting. Let me explain a little first for the Disney novice, EPCOT is broken up into two separete areas, one is Future World where there are attractions focusing on technologies and advances in the future and the other is World Showcase where 11 different countries are represented around a lagoon that you can walk through and see similar architecture, foods, goods, and even people from those countries. During the Food and Wine Festival little stands are set up around the lagoon (this year there were 28 stands) each representing a specific country offering samplings of food and beverage from said country. It's pretty epic, it's also very crowded. It also gets pretty stupid. When people set up drinking teams whose main goal it is is to consume alcohol at every stand, the festival kind of loses it's charm. I don't find people slobbering drunk at 2 in the afternoon that much fun to be around. I'm all for drinking and all that jazz but with kids in strollers nearby and families trying to enjoy their vacation it doesn't seem like the most appropriate venue.

Moving on, we decided to head over to the Boardwalk to catch the boat to Hollywood Studios where we had dinner reservations at 50's Prime Time Cafe. We had a bit of time before we had to be at dinner so we walked around a bit, cruised the shops and tried to ride the new Toy Story Ride but the wait was 70 minutes, yeah, thanks, but no thanks. Dinner was amazing, I had pot roast and my dad was spoon fed at the table by our waiter, ahh, memories. I'm sure some of you are confused, but the premise behind the restaurant is that it's set up like a traditional 50's kitchen. It has old TV sets that play clips from shows at the time and your waiter is some sort of relative (Mom, Dad, Uncle, Cousin etc.). You have to set the table, keep your elbows down and finish your meal if you want dessert. Well, as you can guess my dad didn't finish so our waiter spoon fed him a bit off his plate. It was hilarious, I should have recorded it.

The rest of the night was relaxing and more window shopping downtown.

Up next: Day 4 and some dirty signs.
