    Juan's News and Notes of the World

    I'm off to Epcot today, so I'm going to watch out for those groups - I'm not letting the chanting ruin my day! But first, I gotta revisit my childhood Catholic shrine I've been to some times in the past, Mary Queen of the Universe! (I'm glad it's a basilica now! :D)

    Juan's News and Notes of the World

    On my last daycation to Disney this month (MK, 12/6, during the unexpected Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade taping), I didn't see any turismos (Argentinean and Brazilian tour groups) that day, but I did see a couple of Scholars (the Pop Warner kids). The longest wait that time was an hour for...

    Parks EXTREMELY busy already

    Bring it on, Brazilian tour groups Thank heavens that I wasn't there that day - I'd be ticked off thanks to the Scholars (what I call the Pop Warner kids)! I'm going to Epcot today - and it's summertime in Brazil, so bring it on, Brazilian tour groups, or in my terms, the turismos from the...

    What Disney characters do you want to see more of?

    For those wanting to see Daisy more, there's hope - the last time I saw her was in front of Spaceship Earth, while Muetti and I were at Epcot for its International Food and Wine Festival that Saturday of the Columbus Day weekend! *cue angel chorus* Now that's improvement - keep it up! Here...

    Disney Characters

    Why does WDW have Brer Bear, Brer Rabbit, and Brer Fox where they can annex Brer Frog? I'd like to see Brer Frog out and about - that would be cool!

    New meet n greet queue test

    Great Idea That sounds excellent - no Brazilian tour group mobbing a character, no crashing into Jafar - excellent! :D

    Does talking on rides bother you?

    Yes, just for imitating spiels... That Columbus Day, I was at that briefing room (aka the library) on ToT at DHS, and a handful of people around me was talking along with the televised spiel. Two days before that, some little boy was doing the English spiel on the tram after we spent the day at...

    Notorious Brazilian tour groups

    What Can I Say and HubPage I try to avoid July anywhere in any Central Florida theme park (not just Disney), but I made that mistake when I, Muetti, and my Seattle relatives went to Busch Gardens that month for two consecutive days! It's not just the Brazilian tour groups anymore - there are...

    Brazilian Tour Groups

    Amen to that - same principle with the other (fringe of WDW, as I dub it to this day) Central Florida theme parks! Muetti, some relatives from Seattle, and I were visiting Busch Gardens Tampa Bay (virtually part of the fringe of WDW) for two consecutive days on one weekend. That occurred in...

    Parking going up to $14

    Story at DHS That Columbus Day, Muetti and I didn't realize the change in the parking fee until we were about to park at Disney's Hollywood Studios. (We were also park-hopping to Epcot via boat later that day, just to continue our culinary expedition in the Epcot International Food and Wine...

    Minnie Mouse groped

    Minnie Mouse Molestation Gosh, that reminds me of that baneful "Mouse Orgy" video nearly 3 years ago, but still - that's awful, really. :brick:
