    Glad to help. Your description of the coffee (over-correction) is exactly what happens to me. The key difference in telling ET from Parkinson’s tremors is that ET happens while in use, and Parkinson’s at rest. When you talk to your doctor if they say try alcohol (as treatment rather than a...

    News Splash Mountain closing for lengthy refurbishment in early 2020

    I’m sure people can pick up the phone and get RunDisney to reschedule the marathon. In our case we have 14 people traveling together, including two different grammar school schedules, a high school schedule, a college schedule, six parents with professional careers, and two retirees. No, it’s...

    News Splash Mountain closing for lengthy refurbishment in early 2020

    Our trips are usually in January. I wish they’d do something like alternate January and February.

    "One And Done" Attractions

    I haven’t seen Avatar, maybe that’d make a difference. To me it was short, had no obvious story, and only only one (albeit really good) interesting animatronic. Three Caballeros is a better boat ride.

    "One And Done" Attractions

    Navi River. Glad I didn’t have to wait for it. One of the worst attractions I’ve ever been on.

    Sony & MARVEL are friends again; Spider-Man is back in the MCU

    Do they still need to make a movie every so often to keep the rights?

    Is the Steam Trains Tour running while the trains are down?

    We did that in February too (got to go in the cab). We were probably in it five minutes each while the CM showed us all around.

    Is the Steam Trains Tour running while the trains are down?

    When are you trying to go? I know it’s only available on certain days... Here’s what main street looks like empty!

    Is the Steam Trains Tour running while the trains are down?

    We did the tour in February. It’s possible track construction, or Tron construction, is impacting the availability of the tour currently.

    Is the Steam Trains Tour running while the trains are down?

    We did the tour while the trains were down. Still got to ride the train, just not the full loop. We really enjoyed it. Bonus was getting to see main street absolutely empty! We are big train fans in general so we really enjoyed it.

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    I’ve never been to Universal, and I can’t imagine I ever will. I do hope this puts some pressure on the mouse though.

    Disney and Jon Favreau Joining Forces on “The Lion King”

    The thing I don’t understand about the remakes is why they’re releasing them on each other’s backs - I would think they might be better received if there was some space between them. If nothing else it might keep some stink from a dud off a better film.

    Just got back from my 11 day stay. We had a blast but feel extorted by Mickey Mouse.

    Exactly - if I were to drive I’d have to take two additional days of PTO too - there’s a “cost” to that as well.

    Just got back from my 11 day stay. We had a blast but feel extorted by Mickey Mouse.

    Is there anywhere on property that has chicken nuggets that aren’t “meh”?

    Next Gen Busses

    They could cut prices, rebuild 20,000 leagues, Horizons, The Great Movie Ride, build Beastly Kingdom, fix the Yeti, extend the monorail to all four parks, plus springs, and add four original e-tickets to each park, and still some people would complain.

    5th gate question?

    The 5th gate should be a clone of the Magic Kingdom; Close each down four months a year for refurb (alternating) and keep both open four months for crowds. (I kid, but it could work)

    Rumor Disneyland Tomorrowland Future - What to do?

    By that token Epcot also has Pirates of the Caribbean, it’s just called Gran Fiesta Tour. Dinosaur is a fine ride, but pals to Indy. The potential monorail reroute has me worried. As a WDW vet part of what I love about DL is how interwoven things are. I remember waiting in line at Autotopia...

    Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster to be Re-Themed?

    God I hate to suggest this, but you could even turn TOT into Muppet Labs and have the drops be because of mishaps by Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker.
