That is what gets me. My friend's kids have the attention span of a gnat, but they can sit on their DS or any other video games for hours straight :shock: I don't get it :roll: I suppose I was the same when I was younger, but it was all about reading books and using my imagination! :figment:

I admit that I like to play games but Im also reading four book series right now including Kingdom keepers, and I'm also a honors student at my high school, but the only thing I cant remember well are things like email addresses or phone numbers.

Good for you and your parents for instilling a love of reading in you. You sound like a very bright student! As for the phone numbers and such, how are you with math? I wonder if numbers just aren't your thing?
Back on topic...I would ride the Disneyland RR all day ~ that would be relaxing :D

Im actually really good at math I dont know why i have a hard time with numbers!
but on topic again the DLRR would actually be a good choice.
but I was wondering would you count tom sawer's Island because that would be fun as well, I wouldnt do that though

ding, ding, ding! You have hit the nail on the head for a lot of the attractions, current children's attention spans are like a flea with all the electronic gear they have access to now-a-days. Wow, does that statement make me look old or what?!
I totally agree! (and not about the looking old part either... ;) ) It blows my mind what these kids have now...

Count me among those who miss America Sings. I was still young when it was taken out, but old enough to at least remember parts of it. It bothers me that the Americana music is going by the wayside...what a shame.

If I had to pick a place to spend all day, in DL it would probably be the DLRR...I find that I can just sit there for hours on end and go around and around the park. I love it when you get lucky enough to have a showdown with a monorail over by the Tomorrowland station, or waving to all the people (ok, mainly CM's) in Critter Country, or even seeing a major boat back up at IASW (and the inner demon chuckles... :twisted: ).

In DCA, it would probably be the Animation building. I love the Animation Academy, and Turtle Talk is never the exact same show and is always entertaining.

Sure, Tom Sawyer's Island could count. I'm guessing some would find that interesting enough to spend an entire day doing and seeing everything. I don't think I would like it though....
