    Tarps over Haunted Mansion

    If it is exterior refreshing, it fits with Walt's directive. The inside can be dusty and have cobwebs, but the outside must be immaculate.

    MSEP leaving WDW in October ...

    Spectromagic was the paradeof our daughters youth in the 90s, so it's very dear to us. However, MSEP has a place in my heart from years prior. It was cool to see it again when it returned in 2000, I think. But nothing is forever, or should be I suppose. So renew Spectro or develop a new parade...

    Number 1 thing to do on Arrival?????

    We normally arrive at our resort at or before noon, where we will register and then hit MK and lunch at LTT. However, this year we have lunch ressies at Yak and Yeti's on our first day. Then later in the day we will move to MK for our traditional kick off. As I enter the Town Square from under...

    We really love Christmas at our house and so we have 3 trees all in different rooms. And of course we have a dedicated Disney tree. We usually buy ours at the Downtown Disney World of Christmas store and Ye Olde Christmas shop around the corner from Liberty Tree Tavern. Must buy an ornament...

    What is your WDW touring style?

    We research park hours, EMH's etc and then plan our parks and secure our ADR's. We have can't miss attractions, but we go with the flow of the parks. If we can't see an attraction now, we'll catch in a while when it slows down. Also have to allow for swimming and relaxation time. We try to...

    Anyone ever met others in WDW from your part of the world?

    Our family was in Siesta Key, Florida for a Winter Escape back in 1988. We decided to take a day trip to Magic Kingdom. We were walking down Main Street and turned down a side street. This was before The Emporium was one large continuous building. At the end of the side street we ran into my...

    Extra Magic Hours, which park is YOUR favorite?

    1. MK 2. DHS / EPCOT 3. AK Our family has always loved staying really late at MK. Even back before EMH we would often close the park down. There is something magical about walking the paths in Adventureland on the way out. Very few people around, the lighting is awesome, the background music...

    Gran Fiesta Tour Starring The Three Caballeros. Better?

    We were not happy with the Mexico refurb at all. I miss the early Mexican history scenes as well as the funny street vendor scene before the Mexico City scene. I know that The Three Caballeros dates back to Walt's day and that is important, but I feel it could have been included in scene or two...

    Laugh Floor re-worked...

    We just returned from WDW (crying serious tears) and we really enjoyed MILF. Discussion of it's theming meshing with Tomorrowland aside, it was a cute experience. We saw it twice about 7 days apart and it was somewhat different each time. I can't compare it to any earlier version as this was the...

    E Ticket?

    Actually, the Wedway People Mover was a "D" ticket ride. I always felt it was such a bargain! And "If you had wings" and "America the Beautiful" 360 theatre were free. Great fun!:ROFLOL:

    Time to ditch the Monorail?

    Along with buying a huge tract of land and keeping MK away from the perimeter, the monorail was part of Walts attempt to prevent the ugly blight from creeping too close, as happenned in Disneyland. It also separates Mk as a truly special park in WDW. And it's a great ride in itself! Not to...
