Rides are what you find at the "other" parks!
To people who really like Disney, yes, and we do the non-riding attractions with as much enthusiasm as the riding attractions. But people who don't "get it" call them rides, and go from ride to ride to ride.Amy wrote:Attractions people, they're called attractions!cy1229 wrote:...next ride.Leigh wrote:Thanks for posting the link & the title of this music.

I'm guessing he is thinking of the attractions back in Dinoland. Since it is supposed to be themed to some sort of street carnival, that would make sense. Plus the carnival game booths are back there. I don't remember the CMs really acting like obnoxious carnies though.cy1229 wrote:Like what?

Yeah that's what I was thinking about, too, but the dinosaur round-and-round "Dumbo" ride and the Primeval Whirl aren't carnie rides. So I couldn't think of it.Amy wrote:I'm guessing he is thinking of the attractions back in Dinoland. Since it is supposed to be themed to some sort of street carnival, that would make sense.

Come on!! My Aunt Virgina and Uncle John owned a traveling carnival in upstate New York when I was a kid (actually my mother drove one of the trucks for them when she was pregnant with me!!Amy wrote:I'm guessing he is thinking of the attractions back in Dinoland.

). Triceratops spin is a Wild Mouse!! Disney bought that off of the shelf of a ride company!! Dinoland was done on the REALLY CHEAP!! Don't get me wrong, I grew up in Coney Island and I enjoy it, BUT FOR DISNEY?? No!! These are RIDES AND ARE NOT, LET ME REPEAT THAT, ARE NOT ATTRACTIONS!! They could have put Dinoland up on 192 and called it The Disney Carnival!!It's obvious that Dinoland was something of an after-thought.

For us it's still a half day park.cy1229 wrote:It's obvious that Dinoland was something of an after-thought. "Wow, we have a great idea with the safari and animal themed areas, and such, but what else can we add that will keep people there for a full day?"
We do the safari, EE, and shop, then definitely either FOTLK or FNTM. And, if ya do both... so we make it a full day with lunch, but not a long, exhausting day. There's a lot of "dead space" and we're not big on Dinoland.Jacca5660 wrote:For us it's still a half day park.cy1229 wrote:It's obvious that Dinoland was something of an after-thought.
