We kicked off the day bright and early at Epcot, with one mission: conquer Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. We arrived about 15 minutes before opening, cruised through the line in roughly half an hour, and according to Tim it is up there as one of his all‑time favourite rides. Such fun! We then got a croque monsieur for breakfast that came with a tin of tomato soup
One of the cool things we’ve done on this Disney trip is to use a third party service called Wait Magic. It automatically optimises the Multi Passes for us – booking new rides per our preferences – which means we don’t need to be on our phones as much!
After Cosmic Rewind and thanks to some Wait Magic help, we launched into a jam‑packed Epcot sprint:
Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, Test Track, Soarin’, Figment, and Living with the Land — a full world tour before lunch.
Next stop: Animal Kingdom, where we kept the momentum going. We started with the Festival of the Lion King (still a classic), then hopped onto Kilimanjaro Safaris, braved Expedition Everest, time‑traveled on Dinosaur, Navi River Journey, and wrapped the park with the breathtaking Flight of Passage. Dinosaur was especially poignant as it going extinct in 2 days to be reimagined as an Indiana Jones ride over the next 2 years!
We closed out the night at Steakhouse 71, sipping some of the most delicious cocktails of the trip — the perfect reward after a full‑throttle Disney day.
