    Weird things the "general public" say.

    When standing in line preparing to board Rockin' Roller Coaster I overheard two guys talking about the acceleration of the limos. One fellow asked the other how fast the ride took off... Guy 1: "Hey, how fast does this thing take off?" Guy 2: "Like 0 to 85 in 3 seconds." Guy 1 (thinks for...

    Rides or Attractions in the Rain

    More votes for Splash Mountain and Kali River Rapids...even when walking around the parks during a rainstorm I refuse to wear a poncho.

    Driving to WDW- what to bring...

    We used to drive about 17-18 hours from central Illinois and we used to bring TONS of cookies, chips, lunch meats, and a cooler full of drinks. I'd bring cards and small trivia games for entertainment.

    Second Time Remorse

    I was pumped up to see Lights Motors Action when it originally was opened at DHS...I thought the show was neat originally but on my second and third trips to it was extremely underwhelming and was basically a bunch of cars squealing tires and doing doughnuts.

    whishes: what is it?

    Great idea!! The only thing worse than the Main Street Electrical Parade is.....TWO Main Street Electrical Parades. The traffic around the Magic Kingdom at night is horrific. Plus 12+ hours of some folks who don't believe in Old Spice or additional hygiene products can produce a VERY pungent odor!

    "Disney Burgers"

    I haven't been on an extended Disney trip since 2008 so I haven't dined on everyone's favorite WDW hamburgers in some time. We ate at Cosmic Ray's last week and I was wondering when did the craze of putting bacon on everything start?? I was surprised at how drastically the menus were from my...

    Magic...it seems to be slipping...

    There are always going to be rude guests and negative things that happen at Disney but it's a choice of not letting it affect the fun of experiencing the magic.

    August 2011 Roll Calls

    Very manageable! We were completely surprised at how little we had to wait for attractions at Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and the Animal Kingdom. Magic Kingdom was easily the most crowded park but transportation overall was above average. We never waited longer than 45-50 minutes for any "major"...

    Magic...it seems to be slipping...

    I totally agree with the rude guests statement; we usually are at Disney at the end of July/early August and it's appalling how rude guests are and how much lack of respect the masses have for others and Disney property. I enjoy interacting with other guests and finding out where everybody is...

    How Long have you

    My first trip was in 1997 as part of the 25th Anniversary celebration of the Magic Kingdom...I returned today from my 15th visit and I always feel the magic just as I did as a kid on my first visit. Memories at Disney have been a huge part of my life and I'm grateful I still get the...

    Zip-a-dee-doo-BLAH, let's track its progress

    Over the course of the past 15 years I've never seen Splash Mountain in worse shape than it was over the last 5 days on my most recent visit. We were in line at least 3 times when the queue had to be released because of technical issues. Even during EMH on Sunday the attraction was temporarily...

    Does Anyone Have A Carousel of Progress Sign Update?

    Yep, the original sign was there yesterday afternoon..no "2011" on it though..

    favourite counter/fast food

    Good point on the last paragraph...there's a problem when you look at a place like El Pirata y el Perico and call a taco a diversified menu option!
