Today we went to Epcot and Animal Kingdom! We woke up early this morning to go to an educational tour at Epcot. We got there before the park opened so there weren't that many people around for most of the tour. The tour was "Evolution of Technology" and how technology has transformed in the course of millions of years. We started off with an activity about the things you need to keep in mind while building something like government, technology, social, and more. What better way to create something yourself than to go to the Test Track. The Test Track is where you can design your own car and test it out in certain conditions. Your car is ranked and you can compare it to other cars. We then tried to figure out math problems in Roman numerals. It was really complicated and I'm not sure how people could do math back then without it being so hard. But now we have calculators which we take for granted a lot. We got to see how math is incorporated by flying to Mars! It's a simulated ride where you go to Mars. We also went on the ride in the Epcot Ball, we went back in the past and got to see a glimpse of what it might be like in the future! After the tour, we traveled around the world! There are all different kinds of restaurants based on a country. After Epcot, we went to Animal Kingdom where we saw a 4D show "Tough Life for Bugs" it was really cool to feel and smell what was going on (although some things weren't very pleasant). We rode on Kali Rapids and luckily I wasn't the person who got soaked. We also went on the Yetti Roller coaster ride which was awesome, I went on it twice! We walked around so much today that my feet are sore. We ate dinner at Wendy's and called it a day. Now for another early and long (but fun) day tomorrow!

I love all of the photos you've posted! I wish more of the class did that too.
