Why don't you like Tom Sawyer's Island? I myself don't like it ever since we were stranded over there by a big Thunderstorm one time. Too long stranded on the island! :shock: :(

I haven't been on TSI since I was kid, so I can't blame you there, yodiwan1.

That's all.
So no spinny rides for you? Are you able to ride Mission Space on the green side without problems? How about the Astro Orbitor and Dumbo?
I can do Green okay, but even sometimes if I have a headache it bothers me a touch.

Astro Orbitor made me sick as a dog so no.... I forgot about that. I can do Dumbo okay but I don't particularly like it. I have AWFUL vertigo so even the idea of spinning makes me green. :shock:

How about the spinny-twirly corridor in Buzz? Or the Fantasia spinny part in the Great Movie Ride?

I have to whittle the crowds down one by one so they're not so crowded when I go ;) :lol:
Nope, just curious what makes people tick. I'm not bothered by spinning, or heights, or scary things so I am always interested in see what does and doesn't bother others...

Be honest, I never understood why people scream when they're riding roller coasters (if anything, it makes me laugh). After a while, that screaming can get your voice hoarse.

Mission Space only because it made me very sick! The idea of it is very cool, though.

You didn't like the Finding Nemo musical? May I ask why? We saw it for the first time this past December and we were impressed. The singing was good, the sets and costumes were amazing ~ I have tons of photos!

It is really individual taste. I just never liked the Disney stage shows either. Not a fan of the Voyage of the Little Mermaid either.

I'm the same way. I'm just not a 'show' person. We like the parades, etc. but not the shows. I had thought our youngest would want to do them the last trip but thankfully he didn't.

I've got no problem with anyone enjoying Finding Nemo The Musical. It's just an opinion. In fact I didn't say it was bad, I just really don't like it at all. The puppetry was pretty cool but the whole production seems to me to be a little more preschool than other Disney shows. I just really disliked the melodies and lyrics of the songs. Maybe they shouldn't have labled the show as "Broadway Quality"...Listen, there are many shows on Broadway that aren't even Broadway quality so .......
