It occurs to me now that I must have shown up at EPCOT less than a year after it opened since my family moved from Swarthmore to Miami in 1983 and I spent several weeks in Orlando between stops with my grandparents. It seemed kinda fresh when I was there, but now that I read up a little on the place in the Wikipedia it's clear that I was there when they were just working out the kinks. No wonder I thought it was so boring the first time. Actually, I still think it's kinda boring and I'm more looking forward to watching Megan's eyes the first time she goes to the Magic Kingdom.
Speaking of the Magic Kingdom, I knew that there were tunnels at the Magic Kingdom, but I didn't know how extensive they were. Or that the tunnels are actually the ground floor and the park is actually the second floor. Turns out they used the earth from the lagoon to build up for the second floor that is the park.
