    From the OS: Gator drags child into Seven Seas Lagoon

    If I were representing the family, I would attempt to have the fencing, new signs, etc. admitted into evidence under the exception in Rule 407 for proving, if contested, the "feasibility of precautionary measures." If I were Disney, I would attempt to get around that exception by stipulating...

    From the OS: Gator drags child into Seven Seas Lagoon

    See Rule 407 of the Federal Rules of Evidence: Subsequent Remedial Measures When measures are taken that would have made an earlier injury or harm less likely to occur, evidence of the subsequent measures is not admissible to prove: negligence; culpable conduct; a defect in a product or its...

    Soarin' Expansion and new Soarin' Around the World film

    Thanks very much for sharing this with us, TP2000. I have not been to DCA since the transformation from Condor Flats to Grizzly Peak Airfield. However, based on prior visits, the Grizzly Peak Recreation Area has been one of my favorite parts of any of the Disney theme parks in Florida and...

    Condor Flats becoming Grizzly Peak Airfield

    You're right about that concept art. I suppose the plantings up near Grizzly Peak have the benefit of forced perspective (and almost 15 years to grow), but they look awesome! Grizzly Peak Recreation Area is probably my favorite area of the park, so any expansion of the look and feel is welcome...

    A Spirited Perfect Ten

    At 5'11" I also was a giant, and I agree that the full contact queues generally were more amusing than bothersome.

    A Spirited Perfect Ten

    In addition to the spitting, there is a different mentality regarding personal space, as well. My first experience was waiting for our luggage at the airport in Beijing, literally our first moments in China. Folks kept bumping into me from behind, and I thought maybe they saw their bag on the...

    Main Street U.S.A. hub redevelopment at the Magic Kingdom

    I have only been to Disneyland a handful of times (most recently in early December), but there is a definite difference with the foliage there. In most instances, it looks and feels more organic to the park than at WDW. In particular, I am thinking about the right side of the hub as you make...

    Difference in Villas at AKL

    Right now we are booked at our home resort (Boardwalk Villas) for 4 nights just prior to Thanksgiving, but we were looking into possibly attempting to switch our reservation to Animal Kingdom Villas/Lodge at the 7 month window. It kind of looks like Jambo House with the Arusha Savanna view...

    PHOTOS - Polynesian Resort DVC construction

    It looks like they plan to dye the Seven Seas Lagoon aqua like they dye the Chicago River green on Saint Patrick's Day!

    Calling All OC Beach Experts . . .

    Awesome advice! Thanks very much. At some point earlier this week I stumbled on a website for a restaurant in Laguna Beach called "House of Big Fish and Ice Cold Beer," which led to my post adding Laguna Beach to the list. That restaurant name, a little extra research, and your write-up have...

    Maybe we should also throw Laguna Beach into the mix!

    Thanks! I really like La Jolla! For this trip, I am thinking of staying further north.

    Calling All OC Beach Experts . . .

    I have a conference at the La Quinta Resort & Club in early December. I love that place and can't wait to get there! My wife and I are going to be flying into John Wayne on Thursday late morning (thanks Southwest Companion Pass!), driving out to the desert for the conference Thursday...

    DHS DHS Soundstage 1 Renovation - Toy Storia Mania expansion

    That would be my best guess. My theory is: a) the permit covers a project to increase TSMM capacity in an area adjacent to the current ride (but maybe with a separate entrance, loading area, etc.); and b) the executives' on-site visit is to discuss a related, but more comprehensive expansion...

    DHS DHS Soundstage 1 Renovation - Toy Storia Mania expansion

    If they broke ground now, that would fit current WDW construction timelines! All kidding aside, the exec spotting and permit are fun bits of news to chew on until more details emerge.
