Day Eight-Epcot and School Bread

We woke, showered and headed to Planet Hollywood for lunch before going to Epcot. When booking through Disney, you are given a voucher for $15.00 off at Planet Hollywood. We have not eaten at Planet Hollywood in 4-5 years, so we decided to give it a try. Almost all the Planet Hollywood locations in the U.S. have closed over the course of the last few years (except a few) and we now know why. Even with a $15.00 coupon, we would not eat here again. The food is just terrible and the seating is so close together, it is uncomfortable. We did not take pictures, sorry.

After lunch, we headed to Epcot. The summer crowds started to noticeably pick up today. We did not have dinner reservations and tried our luck at Tutto Italia. No such luck, booked solid---oh well. We rode Maelstrom just before Illuminations and hit Kringla Bakeri og Cafe for a snack. I had the Lefse and my wife had The School Bread. The Lefse was potato bread with butter and brown sugar. It was horrible, definitely not my cup of tea. The School Bread was good though.

 After Illuminations, we hit a few more rides and headed out.

By the time we arrived at Port Orleans, we were hungry. We decided to try the food court. I had the make your own pasta (penne pasta, chicken, peas, broccoli, prosciutto in alfredo sauce) and a fruit cup. My wife had the cheeseburger with fries and a brownie. Both were good, much better than the meal at Planet Hollywood. After dinner, it was off to bed.
