Can I ask what TJ (and Aaron) do to add to the experience?

Inquiring minds want to know! (especially inquiring minds who will never go on said attraction...)

I have never seen Cirque du Soleil - La Nouba and I can't really say that I have any plans to see it.

If you have the time, there are some pretty cool things in there to check out! It's always a good break if you need some A/C or to get out of the rain. The Segway demo is neat!
Thanks, boilerbabe. the Segway thing sounds neat. I didn't know that was there.

This might sound unbelievable, but we've never seen Wishes! Before my daughter was born, my wife and I caught Fantasy in the Sky each time we closed the Magic Kingdom. But Wishes! started after my daughter was born and she HATES fireworks. I've never seen it and I don't even know the music. All I know is "... all your wishes come true." Is it any good?

Do the fireworks scare your daughter secondstar?! I hope she likes them someday soon for your sake! Wishes is amazing!!! DH and I get choked up everytime we see it!!!!

Also, the Segway demo is pretty cool, it prompted us to actually do the Segway tour!!! I would highly recommend it. And if you go, do the early tour before WS opens! You get to go around all of the countries!

For me it is Cirque du Soleil - La Nouba, and I will probably never see it unless it's free. I'm just not into that freaky looking clown acrobatic stuff...

I don't think I've ever been over to Tom Sawyer's Island either, unless the parents took me when I was younger. I may change this soon as I have a couple of boys that like to explore.

and the Dole Whip... Which will change in a month. I think someone on this site has said that they are pretty good, so I'll give it a try. :)

Despite the fact that I've been close to 20 times in my life, there's a surprising amount of stuff I've never done, most of it on purpose. For example, I've never done Space Mountain, Tower of Terror, Rockin' Roller Coaster, Everest, or Test Track because I'm a giant thrill ride chicken. I've never ridden the teacups because I don't enjoy nausea and vomiting. I've never seen Fantasmic or the parade at Animal Kingdom.

Oh, and here's a funny story about attractions we've never done. When I was a kid my mom wouldn't let us see "The Making of Me" in the old Wonders of Life at EPCOT because she was convinced that it contained explicit content. I certainly don't feel like I missed out on anything, not having heard Martin Short tell me about human reproduction, it's just funny that my mom seriously believed that Disney would show "adult content" at any of its parks. It'd be like having Freddy Krueger as a guest on Mr. Rogers Neighborhood.

Do you hear the Dole Whip calling you, NaCler? Answer the call! It's calling you! :wink:


I also realized one thing I haven't yet done at WDW is the car stunt show at DHS. :mickey:

boilerbabe, my daughter is frightened by loud noises to the point of tears. She'll be 7 this year, but she still says "No" when it comes to fireworks.

I am DEFINITELY interested in checking out the Segway demo. That sounds great. Thanks.

Awwww, poor thing. Maybe someday then?!

I highly recommend the segway tour! DH and I have done it twice now! Next trip we're hoping to check out the one at Wildnerness Lodge!

That show wasn't there when we last went to WDW but I got to see it at DLP and it was pretty cool ~ not sure I would have to see it every trip though...
