After a week of walking past SSE, I finally got to ride it today. I was a little disappointed at not hearing Irons narrating but I shrugged it off after a few minutes. Like others have already stated on here, my excitement level mimicked the ride vehicles height. My excitement level grew as we...

I was once on an Epcot bus leaving for the night when our driver clipped one of the concrete posts that mark the turns. We ended up sitting there for about an hour while they surveyed the damage and got a bus to transport the full load to. I was told that the incident meant the driver was...

Thank you for the updates Merf! Love your posts. :xmas:

Camera If you are looking for a new camera I would recommend a Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi. You can pick up the kit for about $750 now from B&H out of New York. I have used this camera for almost a year now and love it. I shoot with a Canon Zoom Telephoto EF 70-300mm and an EF 24-70mm f/2.8L...

Ok, so I have a question. I have an AP and my DW does not. We are going for 8 nights in Feb and I want to try the dining plan. If I buy the PH ticktes for our stay to get the dining plan, then can I use the money I spent on BOTH of our tickets towards her getting an AP? As long as I do not use...

I took a seven day trip on my own in January of 2000. I had a blast! As a single guy in his 20s, I hit the parks every day and PI every night. On most nights :lookaroun I stumbled back to my room at the Celebration Hotel. I woke up, slept, and ate when I wanted to. I rode every ride at least...

HAHAHA This is 6FA? Figures, I'm surprised I didn't hear about it on EITM.

142 days 20 hours 58 minutes and 30 seconds.....

I made a stop at Le Cellier today on the off chance that a seat might have opened up. I was met with a "no you idiot look" and told that Le Cellier was booked through the end of June. They said the first seat they had was in July. I don't want to give the wrong idea, the staff was very nice. I...

I was there today around 3 but I didn't ride it. It rained almost all day! I'll hop over tomorrow morning and see if I can spot any new updates.

“Sharing The Magic” In 1923, Walt Disney and his brother, Roy O. Disney, pooled their resources – Walt’s creative vision and Roy’s business sense – to form their own cartoon studio. Together, they successfully pioneered many new avenues in family entertainment. Roy O. Disney completed his...

HAHAHA, I went to MGM on May 5th and watched the "first" LMA show. I still have the AP pin and the 5/5/05 LMA pin. I did this because a CM told me that there wasn't a public event at MK. I saw the small tents being set up on the 4th while it was raining but nothing that looked like they were...

Ok, I'll take this in pieces. 1 Who said anything about "special treatment?" I wasn't asking to be let into a members only party or be given an award when one wasn't warrented. I was stating an opinion that if an event is to be publicized then it might be a good idea to hold a "public event"...

I agree that Disney is well within their right to close their gates and do what they will. It makes all the sense in the world for Disney to focus two days on the press to get their message out to the world, “even though Disney is a media giant who is totally able to get their own message out”...
