Our Honeymoon - Day 3

Day three was a full day of Epcot, including our Dive Quest and backstage tour.  We spent the morning riding rides: Soarin', Test Track, Mission: Space. Around lunch, we headed to the World Showcase for lunch. Here I am in Japan, the closest I'll get to it for now.


For lunch, we ate at the buffet in Germany. It was pretty reminiscent of the festivals back home. We were seated during one of the sets of the band, which reminded me of the Schauplatlers (don't know if I spelled that right....). 


In Norway, we decided to have some fun by posing like some statues there. J did a pretty good job, right?


The Dive Quest was amazing. We lucked out with a smaller group, only 5 people total diving. Everything was provided for us, except our masks. We got to spend 40 minutes exploring the Seas aquarium. Being in the tank while the park was open meant that we became cast members. So as we are swimming around, people eating in the restaurant or touring the aquarium were watching us. I found it just as much fun to wave at them as to look at everything. It was our first dive in salt water, and with sharks. Definitely an exciting experience, although nerve wracking at times. All in all, it was an experience I'm glad we decided to do.


After we finished up, we headed over to Downtown Disney for dinner at Fulton's Crab House. We tried conch fritters for the first time and found them extremely tasty. J got crab legs and I got a mix of fish, shrimp and scallops. Again, we got free dessert. This time chocolate cake; however, we were so full we had to take it with us to eat the next night. By the end of the day we were very exhausted.
