    Worst Attraction Fail/Malfunction you have seen?

    Worst I've seen was POTC at DL. It was closed for nearly 3 entire days (not for refurb, but unexpectedly closed) with staff out front continually saying "check back later". I actually told Jack Sparrow to stop breaking things when I saw him. He was flummoxed... We finally got to ride it at the...

    What is something you ALWAYS do in Magic Kingdom?

    Every trip is different. Must see the castle. Must take a slow stroll around Main Street. Must visit Partners. And Every trip I must see Mickey at town hall. Rides - no single "must do", but must do as much as I can.

    A day in Magic Kingdom without rides.

    I could easily spend a day loitering around the parks without going on rides. Mostly I am finding and photographing park details, but there is also lots of time for food, people watching (especially around fountains and splash areas), shopping, and some character greeting - if the the lines...

    How much does the music at Disney add to the experience for you?

    100% Love the music of the parks! I have multiple Spotify playlists that focus on the background music of the parks - and the ride music. I have always been a parks<movies Disney fan (though I love both) and the parks music can transport me back to that part of the park in an instant. A huge...

    Magic Kingdom Parade Memories - 1996

    I remember getting a purple token from one of the fireflies from Spectro as a little kiddo - sometime in the early 90's. I also remember being targeted by Ursula at the same parade and being TERRIFIED! But also loved it... Those were fun times in the parks.

    Guide to DLR for WDW Veterans!

    We're heading to DL for our first visit in 2 weeks. I can see the schedule on-line, but I have a question about Mickey's Mix Magic - does the projections run every night, or just the nights that it's mentioned on the schedule. Do the projections always have fireworks? How do I know which is...

    What's the best WDW secret you know?

    My favorite secret is at the Muppets 3D @ DHS - the sign that says "the key is under the mat" right inside the front door...check under the mat. Pay attention to the windows above Main St. Blvd. You may be surprised to see what is there! There is also a door with a sign to casting on Main...

    What Is Your Favorite Ride And/Or Attraction ❓

    Mine Train at MK is so much fun and I always have a blast! I miss Great Movie Ride. Also love all the classic rides (HM, ISM, JC, SSE, etc.) for nostalgia. They give me goosebumps every time - every one of them.

    How often do you go to Disney?

    Used to work at MK in 2005 and 2009. Before 2009 I went nearly every year. Now I live pretty far away and we don't make it back nearly as much as I'd like to. Every 3 years or so is what we have been doing. I wish it could be more - cost is the only deterrent. Flights from here are outrageous!
