You know you're a Disney nut when your family spontaneously bursts into Capt. Rex's entire monologue on ST.
At least, that's what DH said.

I used to be a little longer than that from EPCOT. I used to live in Boca...

How were the snow birds last season on I-95 and Okeechobee (assuming you live near there)?

Hey, maybe we should try this in reverse. I just did a MapQuest and found out I'm only 43 hours and 47 minutes door to door with Cinderella's Castle. (Woohoo! I didn't think I was that close.

)
There's got to be someone farther out though. Anyone farther?

Still not sure where you are located but thinking further momeja, maybe it would be closer if you flew the other way around the world to get there?! Tell MapQuest you want to take the back roads

Hey, MadEye, if you live that close - doesn't the fireworks going off every night get annoying after a while?

... when you are at church on EASTER Sunday and there is someone playing the "hand chimes" and whenever they shake them you say in your head, "man that reminds me of Adventureland music."

This sounded interesting, so I tried it out...
I am 35 hours and 6 minutes from EPCOT (chose my fave park)
4 hours and 12 minutes from Disneyland (poo...we usually make it in around 3 1/2...depending on traffic)
... when you are at church on EASTER Sunday and there is someone playing the "hand chimes" and whenever they shake them you say in your head, "man that reminds me of Adventureland music."
funny you should mention that...I actually play them! (though we used bells and not chimes on Easter

)
