    30 SEPT.

    Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana - Epcot

    http://www.attractionchecklist.com - One of the newest attractions at Walt Disney World’s EPCOT is Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana.  Join us as we walk through this attraction for the first time on this episode of Attraction Checklist. Attraction audio recorded on June 2, 2024. TRANSCRIPT: Welcome to Attraction Checklist. This episode we head to Epcot to experience Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana. The Walt Disney World website describes this attraction by saying: Explore the wonders of water along a lush trail that’s fun for all ages—based on the Disney animated film Moana. There are no age or height requirements for this walk through attraction. Before we play with water, here are five fast facts about Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana. 1. Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana, was originally slated to open in 2021 as part of Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary.  The opening was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the attraction officially opened on October 16, 2023. 2. Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana is located in the World Nature neighborhood of Epcot near The Seas with Nemo and Friends. 3. Guests can take two paths as they explore Journey of Water.  Those who’d prefer not to get wet can take the dry path while those interested in interacting with the water can take the wet path. 4. Journey of Water keeps the original spirit of EPCOT alive as it teaches guests about the global water cycle and follows the journey of water from the sky to the sea and back again. 5. Several characters from the film Moana are hidden throughout the attraction, both on land and in the water.  The centerpiece of the attraction is not hidden at all and that is the 15 foot high sculpture of Te Fiti which is comprised of over 3000 pieces of foliage. Let’s go walk through Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana.  John B. deHaas is along for the journey and after we walk through we’ll give you our thoughts on this attraction.  This is a binaural recordings so if you have headphone put them on now as we experience Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana at Walt Disney World’s EPCOT.

Though it will be released at the same time a this episode as a Patreon Patron exclusive to those Patrons who want to hear.  We even included a review, of our fellow riders. But forgetting about that, here now is Test Track 2.0 and afterwards I’ll give you my thoughts on this attraction.  This is a binaural recordings so if you have headphone put them on now as we experience Test Track 2.0 at Walt Disney World’s EPCOT.
