A 3-4 day trip every year in April (NCAA Ice Hockey Championships) Usually 3-4 days to a week over Christmas (we have a toddler so fun to be home) Then 1-2 days here and there. If we're actually taking a real "vacation" and doing something/going somewhere it's usually 7-10 days total or 5-...

Chef Mickey's. To be faire, we've only done Chef Mickey's and Cape May's, but Cape May's only had 4 characters when we were there (Goofy, Minnie, Chip and Dale). That, and it wasn't too busy (we did breakfast) and the character's didn't come to us much (likely because we got sat in a far corner of t...

Where attraction has the longest track length in WDW? I'm going to say monorail. Not technically an attraction as it's the transportation system, but I think most guests think of it as an attraction. As a kid, I liked it more than most rides. If I have to guess attraction, I'm going to go with the ...

The Land foodcourt got noticeably bad after Kraft went away. I've been very disappointed since it went to being a cafeteria for the most part.

If it's not KS (which seems like a good guess to me), my guess is the place between Future World and World Showcase in Epcot, where they used to have flamingos way back when. Kinda on the left hand side as you face WS, going toward the Odyssey? That is a good guess, I'm going to agree but say if no...

The more I go to the Universal parks the more I believe that they are the new Disney. It seems like they're just getting started with "impressing". I have a stronger emotional connection to Seuss Landing than epcot at this point. I'm highly anticipating Harry Potter. If I'm not mistaken, ...

Prior getting my iPod earlier this year, I had an older MP3 player that couldn't create playlists. I wanted Christmas music on it but didn't want to add/delete it each year. So, it played it all year round - I got a lot of ribbing for that. So, no complaints from me. Happy 1/2 Festivus to the rest o...

I don't even go to the Disney Store anymore, the only one left around here is at the Mall of America. It just looks like any other kid/tween department store. I don't think these are more profitable because Disney is buying them back from Children's Place. Hopefully they'll return the fun decoratio...

Oh please, you aren't too young. You can't be that much younger than me. I am only 26 and I remember it. Okay, here is my next one. http://img172.imageshack.us/img172/2689/whereintheworld5fy9.th.jpg it's easy. Part of Illuminations at Epcot? It has to be part of one of the water shows, just not sur...

I also hope it helps manage out duplicates (folks who have reservations at multiple restaurants). They contribute to the pain in getting an ADR.

The setting issue is just urban legend, as far as I can tell. Originally, they thought about using it to "update" the rooms, but that idea was dropped before construction started. As that video showed it was a "rapid" construction technique. It's a win because you can start the ...

Notation that I've posted here before

I have a suggestion (and if this already exists and I'm just dumb, I apologize :oops: ). It would be great if the thread icons that make you aware if there are new posts (orange instead of white) and if it's a popular thread (flashing or whatever that is) could also somehow tell you if you've posted...
