We slept in the next morning. When we woke up, Warner was gone. And it was pouring rain. Suddenly, the door opened, and there was Warner, with a huge bag of breakfast platters. "I felt bad, so I bought breakfast. I don't know why I feel bad though..." We filled him in on the night's events ("What happened after China?") and ate our delicious food, while waiting for the rain to let up. I'm talking monsoon rain. And thunder and lightning.
Usually in Florida the rain lets up after downpouring for a few minutes. I guess today it decided to downpour for hours. Finally, we admitted defeat and donned our ponchos to head over to EPCOT. We only had 3 ponchos, and Warner stated that "ponchos are a sign of weakness" and that he would buy one when we got to the park. Big. Mistake.

We were all soaked through on the walk to the bus stop... But we trekked on anyway so we could do the rest of EPCOT that isn't the World Showcase.
Rides we rode in EPCOT:
Soarin' (Twice!)
Mission Space (NASA Flight Simulator. Ugghhhh)
The Seas with Nemo and Friends (In this biiiig bluuuue worlllld)
Spaceship Earth
(Test Track was closed due to the rain. Sad.)

After a few hours, a lunch break, and feeling my uggs squish every time I took a step, we all decided we needed to go home and change before our dinner reservations that evening. So we went back to Saratoga Springs, put on some warm clothes and zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz... took deliciously awesome naps. (Really exciting, I know. But hey, we were on VACATION. We are allowed to relax!)
When we woke up from our naps, we all kind of hung out, looked over the pictures we'd taken so far, and slowly started getting ready for dinner (our last night). Disney Vacations always go TOO QUICKLY!!! The rain had stopped THANK GOD and so we were able to venture out sans ponchos (but I shoved them into my backpack because I did NOT want to be caught in the rain without one!). We rode the bus back to EPCOT and first headed over to Soarin' to use our fastpasses. I love that ride. I highly recommend riding it more than once, and always ask to be in the front row! Then we walked over to Coral Reef for our dinner
reservations.

We were exhausted, happy, full, and sad that our trip had to come to an end the next day. We decided to just go back to the hotel to start packing our things so we could take advantage of the time we had left in the morning.
