What am I missing if I skip Epcot?

It's funny... our "skip" park would be MGM. It 'does' have one of the COOLEST
rollercoasters ever, but IMHO, on a hot day it's the hottest park, for whatever
reason.

When our DD's were younger (they're 17 and 12 now) we'd spend most of
our time at EC -we loved the World Showcase.. eating, etc around the WS, and
watching the shows...

One of our favorite things happened when our oldest DD was somewhere around 4 or so... We were looking for characters.. and my DW asked if we
knew where Ti double gg r was today.. and my DD piped up from the stroller
with "and that spells Tigger!!!'' we laughed so hard we just about crashed the
stroller...

With younger kids, the Kidcot stuff might be lotsa fun, the shows (if your kids
like that kinda stuff) would be good.. Maelstrom in Norway, Figment,
The Living Seas (the aquarium kept our dd's entrancef for HOURS!)...
Innoventions, Universe of Energy.. Test Track (depending on age)..

Our DD's now say that EC is their favorite park......

It can be a surprisingly good park for kids...

have fun!!!

If you don't already have it, The Unofficial Guide to WDW would be a great
book to find out all the details about each attraction/ride at Epcot.
It helped me tremendously in my planning for the children.
