Disney4me Posted Sunday at 06:53 PM Report Posted Sunday at 06:53 PM Lots of people head into EPCOT to complete the popular Drinking Around the World challenge, but during busy times of year, you may notice that some of those lines are WAY longer than you anticipated. Drinking around the world This is especially true when there’s not an EPCOT festival going on, because there are fewer spots to grab a drink, as well as in more popular pavilions, such as Mexico. If you’re looking for the lowest crowds and shortest lines, there’s one time you want to go, but we’ll warn you now — it’ll take some courage. We were in World Showcase the other day when it started to rain, as it often does during the summer afternoons in Disney World. The heat of the day often gives way to mild thunderstorms in the afternoons that leave people running for cover, and if the storm goes on long enough, you’ll likely notice that once it’s over, the crowds have thinned. It’s been happening for years, and it’s nothing new, so here’s how to use it to your advantage. No crowds! As it turns out, when it’s raining, everyone has ducked under awnings to stay protected? That’s the BEST time to walk around and grab your drinks. We walked by Choza de Margarita, one of the most popular spots in the Mexico Pavilion that often has quite the line, and there was NO ONE there, except for one person waiting for a drink. The same could be said all around the pavilion, as well as others — everyone was taking cover, not wanting to be in line while it poured. No lines anywhere This means we think it’s a great idea to grab that poncho or umbrella and brave the rain for long enough to stand in the very short line, grab your drink, and THEN take cover while you drink. This way, you don’t feel like you’re wasting time during the downpour, which can be valuable time lost on any day, but especially a day when you’re drinking around the world.
