Epcot Resort Boats

Do you guys ever bother with the Epcot resort boats (the "Friendships") We usually just walk unless we're exhausted. DHS is a bit of a journey but taking the boat to Epcot just seems weird. If it's really hot then we might take the DHS boat, but otherwise we'll probably walk.

DHS is a pretty long walk, although oftentimes we just drive believe it or not. The boats can be a hassle and the walk can be bad when it's hot so we might take a car, even on such a short trip.

We had a magnificent time at Epcot (I think in 2007)!

When the captain of the boat told who want to park at Hollywood Studios. We lift up our hands and looked around...hahaha laugh ...we were the only ones that wanted to go to HS on boat!

Best Regards,

I guess the old saying It took me years to understand holds true. " I wish I had the wisdom of age and the vigor of youth." We ride ALL the boats on every trip we go the WDW. We don't need to be going anywhere. Just the boat ride is enough on it's own. Of course we stop off at one of the resorts just to walk around or maybe get a bite to eat but we never ever worry about which is the fastest way to travel or the shortest root from one place to another. We don't have that many more trips left in us and we want to let each one be the most it can be and not rush through it.

We ride the boats.
I wish I could give a classy explanation like Joe...and say something like we just love to live every moment and all that...
but..in reality we are just lazy.

laugh You're hilarious, Bella! I don't know that we're all that lazy, but we do like to ride the boats when they're not crowded. That breeze can be so nice on a hot WDW day!

We rode the boats on family trips when I was younger. It was simply too much for my grandma to walk and then in a few years it was simply too far for us to push her! The last few trips that were with friends I walked though because there is still so much to see and do while walking!

We do like walking as well. The exercise helps us to be able to eat more at the next meal!
