We went off at noon this day in Orlando to EPCOT.

The official EPCOT picture.

	At the hotel at 1000 hours, the pool is far busier than when Martin swims at 0700. The bus for our group is waiting outside the hotel.
	Martin outside the EPCOT globe. Spaceship Earth is taking us around the globe and let us look at our history as humans.
	Amund, our leader, is also queuing outside the globe. Stone age woman doing her stuff in the bad, old days.
	The Egyptians had the first cultural blips in history. Then came the Middle Ages.
	The writing was on the wall. With the printing press revolutionary the publication industry.
	End of the American Civil War, the first of the Great Wars of the 20ties century. The communication area was ushered in when the telephone was invented.
	Radio was invented. Then came the mainframe computers of the 60-ties and 70-ties.
	In the 80-ties came the personal computers. Martin and Roy floating around in space on an animation made by the system.
	The water fountain outside the globe was impressive. So was the lake near by.
	Martin likes the monorail system overhead. Time for the Mexican pavilion.
	With some Inca-inspired constructions. Our group with Roy and Magne with the white hat.
	Inca head during the trip. Donald Duck was omnipresent and superimposed on the pictures all over the show.
	Donald dressed up as a Mexican. Martin in a beer queue. You had to queue for everything here. It was very packed all day all year around.
	Then to the Norwegian pavilion with a stave church and the eye catcher. An old Norwegian bakery was portrayed as well.
	Maelstrom was a boat trip through Norwegian history and folklore. This is the starting picture. No pakkis here yet since it was made in 1970.
	One of the pictures inside. Ice bears are part of the Norwegian folklore.
	So are trolls. One is seen here. The Akershus Festning replica is a central part of the Norwegian stand on EPCOT.
	Over to the Chinese one. Normal stuff with these grave warriors dug out from ancient graves in China.
	Chinese girls counting Martin's small change. Angry ! Pouring beer the Chinese way. Impressive.
	Crowds all over the show. The German stand was next door.
	Typical German town square with beer halls. Time to shop some Norwegian vodka in one of the outlets.
	The lake is nice. Martin got too tired after 3 hours of walking around the scene.
	Time to go back to the hotel, but first a stop over at the Rainforest Bar and Restaurant. Martin enjoying a beer at The Rainforest Bar.
	Fancy beer glasses with the bottles stuck in the ice. The nice couple and Martin with the fancy beer glasses.
