In my 20’s I left a bag with a souvenir in it on top of the car at the end of the evening. I realized it on a ramp out of the parking lot, parked on the side of the road, and was determined to frantically walk all the way back to look for it. I snapped out of that pipe dream when I...

The real danger here is what’s in that water, and I’m not talking about animatronic hippos either.

This is slightly off topic and anecdotal as I have no data to back this up, but I’m convinced that the app loses some of its usefulness since so many are looking at the same data and crowds tend to flock to “low wait time” attractions. If you’re not careful you can find your party traveling from...

I’ve stopped on the backward tilt before but the last time I rode my 11 year old and I got stopped on the “upside down footstep stairs” area which was both boring and infuriating for a purist like myself. (Translation: Nostalgic Gen X’er)

I think it also has to do with crowd management. Lines are people eaters and without them you have a lot more people throughout the park. On my last trip SM and BTMRR both broke down on a 10/10 crowd day and you could barely move around without those two lines managing people.

I got a sweet retro Tiki Room shirt at WDW a few weeks back. Edit: Here’s the link. Link

Also, to anyone who chose CBJ, I hate you.

Not to mention foot traffic flow on busy days.

A few pics I took last week...

Side note: Getting my first visit to Toy Story Land at the moment. Rope dropped Slinky, made it within sight of the loading area aaaaannnd, Thunderstorm stoppage. I haven’t seen enough this morning to offer an educated opinion. Hopefully this will pass and I can see it better then.

If you don’t like the commercialized experience, my family enjoys St. George Island. It’s quiet, mostly houses, and has a few resteraunts, a cute ice cream place, etc. It’s also close to Appalachicola for shopping or larger dining options. If your daughter is looking to celebrate graduation...

Maybe for people from this site for sure, but the general public will eventually respond to an increase in price. It’s simple economics. And no I don’t work for Disney. I just hate the crowds I’m going to be fighting next week. As I said, I knew my opinion would be unpopular. If I end up...

Count me in on the unpopular opinion that price needs to catch up to demand. If you’re concerned about people being left out, I’m all for having a few discounted weeks when you can pay less if you don’t mind the insane crowd. Otherwise, I’m actually in favor of raising prices across the board.

I think part of what is getting lost in translation here is that the initial concept for Alien Encounter involved using the Alien IP before plans changed. If there was that much complaining about Alien Encounter (which in and of itself was supposedly toned down after crowd testing), could you...

You know what would be a great idea? A Disney theme park based on American history. You could locate it in Northern VA. Iger is busy so maybe bring back Eisner to oversee it. ;)

Haunted Mansion and COP even with its current end scene issues.

Going in a couple of weeks and then letting it sit at least a year before we even think of trying it.

I went down to Orlando 18 years or so ago with dreams of being something cool like a Jungle Cruise skipper. The best I could get was an Innoventions demonstrator with hopes of making a lateral move after a mandatory year. I panicked the morning of the second audition and just came home...

So mine was from a college Spring Break trip, probably '99, with friends and my longtime gf at the time. Not in the parks but we were eating on a Monday night at the ESPN WWOS Grill or whatever it was at the time. It's just us and one guy at the bar, who turns out to be a (now former) ESPN...

My party will be there the last week of March, and this is our second trip during Spring Break trip (2017). I mainly agreed to go again to prove a point since my wife and sis-in-law didn't listen when I said it's not a great idea. Though not ideal, it is doable with a plan and a decent...
