Destination Disney-Epcot~Mexico

For years we skipped the Mexico Pavillion at World Showcase in Epcot. The boat ride hadn't changed since it opened, the restaurant isn't our kind of food and the shop is often noisy and crowded. Then in April of 2007 the ride re-opened after a lengthy closing and re-branding. The boat ride is now "Gran Fiesta Tour Starring the Three Caballeros!" The ride now features the three stars of the 1944 movie "The Three Caballeros". Disney did a great job of keeping some of the classic Mexico travelogue feel while incorporating Donald Duck, José Carioca, and Panchito into the theme. The ride is now much more child friendly as they spend most of the ride chasing Donald Duck through Mexico.
