Your favorite distinct smell from WDW

Smell is the strongest sense tied to memory. Most people can smell something once and, after years of time passed, be transported immediately back once the same scent is smelled again. It is no different for Walt Disney World, with it's large spectrum of distinct smells. For me, I can't forget that ...

Well, you can pretty much walk right across the street from the hotel to Downtown Disney (if I am remembering correctly). This eliminates the time needed to catch a shuttle from the other the resorts. I'm on the fence about whether I want to stay here or not. I've never actually stayed at one of Dis...

Gone are the days of informing the public and in are the days of entertaining and inspiring them. I agree that the overt educational aspect of Epcot is passing away, but Epcot still retains the distinctive aspect that made it famous.

I don't know if anyone has requested this before (I stopped skimming the Requests on page 10)...... .....but I would LOVE to see 'Captain EO' on the Requests page.

Walt was clearly ahead of his time in his thinking and in his business mentality. No one can deny this. The idea that hard work and "being good" in what what does can lead to perfection and (eventually) creation is a classic theme in Disney works. We as imperfect beings can only strive for...
