    Club Cool Closing? (FALSE RUMOR)

    I think it's just the fact that Starbucks is EVERYWHERE. They have stores across the street from each other, they probably have at least one store in your town, and now it's just people saying - really, now Disney too?

    Spirited News, Observations & Thoughts IV

    Reminds me of LucasArts, in a way. The best Star Wars game by far, IMO, is Knights of the Old Republic, which was developed by BioWare. Now that Disney has shuttered LucasArts and given the Star Wars franchise to EA (which now owns BioWare), I'm very interested to see what they do with it. I...

    Disney World Smell Memories

    With all of the fountains (Polynesian, Coronado Springs, EPCOT, etc.) and water rides, the "Disney water smell" is what I associate most with WDW.

    Amazing Projection Show On a Miniature Cinderalla Castle

    Nice, reminds me of a scaled-down version of Disney Dreams from Disneyland Paris

    Spirited News, Observations & Thoughts IV

    Pentacat, sounds like we're thinking along the same lines. The thing I''m most concerned about with NGE is that I really have no interest in using it, and because of that my WDW experience will be negatively impacted. I've been going to WDW for over 20 years now, and I rarely plan my trip...

    Spirited News, Observations & Thoughts IV

    I'm a huge monorail fan, so I actually enjoy park hopping to and from MK and EPCOT. I would rather be punched in the head by Mike Tyson in his prime than try to go from AK to DHS and back to a hotel later, or something of the like (edit - by using Disney transport). Car is definitely where it's...

    So there were some mentions of Star Wars in this thread...any news on that front that you can share?

    Eddie Sotto's take on the current state of the parks (Part II)

    I saw this actually happen on Space Mountain. A woman sat down in the coaster, but her fat was literally spilling over the sides and she couldn't get the restraint to lock. The cast members came over to help but they were also unable to get the restraint the lock in place, so they told her that...

    Interesting article about Soarin's little brother in Vancouver

    Nice read! Wish that could be in EPCOT's Canada pavilion. I liked how the seat layout is pretty much identical to Soarin'. If I'm ever in Vancouver I'll have to check it out.

    Favorite Night Time Spot

    Hmm so many - California Grill during the fireworks, maybe a nighttime stroll after as well. Monorail ride around EPCOT. Almost anywhere in MK if there aren't many people around. Tomorrowland and even Adventureland come to mind. Same thing with EPCOT, almost anywhere. World Showcase is...

    Best 30 seconds at Disney...

    hmmm too many to count, but I might have to go with pulling into the MK station on the monorail and hearing "on behalf of the cast of the Walt Disney World resort, we'd like to welcome you to the Magic Kingdom!"

    Things you haven't done...

    Ahh reading through all of these responses has made me realize some other things that I haven't done - Liberty Belle Riverboat, Tom Sawyer Island, Hall of Presidents, and Festival of the Lion King. Every time I'm there I see the boat go by and think, "we should do that...buuutttt we have our...

    Things you haven't done...

    What are some things in WDW that, for whatever reason, you always end up missing out on doing? In all the times I've been (around 20), I've never seen Fantasmic or done anything at the Boardwalk besides go to ESPN Club. Something always came up whenever I was going to see the dueling pianos at...

    Favorite restaurant

    California Grill - on top of the Contemporary, great view of Seven Seas Lagoon, MK, and the hotels, perfect view of the fireworks with the audio pumped in, and really good sushi :)

    Worth staying at a Disney hotel?

    Thanks for the responses! I was thinking along those lines as well, and the extra magic hour definitely is a big plus, especially since I will be going during a busy season. I think I will go for the Sequoia since I keep hearing good things about it, and because I will be going there just for...

    Worth staying at a Disney hotel?

    I am going to Disneyland Paris in June and still need to book my hotel and park ticket. I'm leaning towards a hotel/ticket combo at Disney's Sequoia Lodge but wanted to get everyone's opinions on here first. When I go to WDW I like staying on property because the hotels have that Disney "feel"...

    Star struck at Disney....

    I saw Beyonce as I was leaving Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin. A guide put her on the ride where everyone else was getting off :p
