Re: Favorite people watching location

Curious if others do this. I have spent a lot of time sitting in random locations and just people watching. One of my favorites is the benches by the Wishing well just east of Cinderella Castle. I'd have to add just about any place in World Showcase once its late enough for the alcohol to kick in. ...

Re: Refurbishment News

Agree!!! COP is considered "lame" by some......But we love it and have to ride it every time we are there. I guess it brings back memories>>>> :D :wink: :goofy: It is pure kitsch, and I love every minute of it. It's super dated, but that's what makes it fun! I love listening to the old re...

Re: New ride closure rumors

As much as I enjoy the GMR , it's probably time to put it to rest. It's been combating relevance for at least ten years - and perhaps that's being generous. Yes, classic movies will always be classic, but not even a single syllable of adjustment to the script after all these years. A re-write of the...

Re: Must See/Do at Disney World NOT in parks?

Maybe going to Disney Quest is a bad idea. I just read a lot of very recent bad reviews on it. All the times we've been to Disney, we never went there. I'm sad and not surprised to hear that. The last time we went to Disney Quest was in 2008. It was just really.... I don't know, I hate to say it - ...

Re: Just Priced Room, Tickets & Meal Plan and Almost Died

So, YOU'RE one of those people that started calling in May, and plugged up the phone lines?! 8-) I had a similar experience booking our reservations for French Quarter.

Re: New Haunted Mansion Merch

The tarot cards really do look great! How cool! I'm always so disappointed, really, when we walk out of HM, and it's just this little cart with some shirts hanging from it. Will definitely be looking for these in August!

Re: Games In The Parks / Scavenger Hunts

I think you'd have a ton of fun with a Hidden Mickey scavenger hunt! My wife and I always try to hunt down the Mickeys when we go. There's a pretty dandy little book you can normally find in the park or purchase online, or you can just google Hidden Mickeys and there are plenty of people that have ...

Re: Tracks I would like to see added...

The Great Movie Ride pre-show. I love the part when they show clips from "Alien." I'll second others who say that this is a great idea! There's something so special about the loop of those trailers. Every time I ride Great Movie Ride, and get into the queue with the trailers playing, it's...

Re: Tracks I would like to see added...

I'm a fan of the Midway Mania queue music, including (or not including) Mr. Potato Head's songs. And as I'm typing this, I'm not 100% positive that the queue music isn't just snippets of the soundtrack. That said, if it ISN'T, I would love to see that added. Thanks! :hm_ghost: :hm_ghost: :hm_ghost:

Games In The Parks / Scavenger Hunts

(Forgive me if I topic of this nature exists elsewhere - I couldn't seem to find anything quite like it.) Heading to The World with my other half this August - my bajillionth time, his second. While we certainly have had fun on our own terms, I think it might be fun this time around to do some games...

Re: What ride/attraction won't you ride?

I know i commit disney blasphemy by not liking an icon classic like Tiki. Don't tell mickey!!!! I did rebel against rock n rollercoaster for a long time just because i can't stand Aerosmith. Turns out thats a fun ride tho. :p The other one i haven't been on in years is Peter Pans flight. But i actu...

Re: What ride/attraction won't you ride?

Mission:SPACE always creeped me out because I'm super claustrophobic, but now that I see there are two different experiences that can be had, I may attempt the mission with the Green team.

When I was a child, Haunted Mansion PETRIFIED me. Now, it's in my top three faves.

Re: 14 days of Magic - My Trip Report

Last time I went to Disney, I took my boyfriend (his first time in The World) and he was pretty much done with it after 4 days, and we stayed for 5. I cannot imagine 14 Days! THAT'S AMAZING (And Expensive...). That all said, we just planned our trip for Labor Day Weekend. Want to be there right now!...
