    Picture of the Day Thread

    I'm a big fan of the WDW Picture of the Day Thread, as a matter of fact it's the reason I joined WDWMagic, but I have a small complaint. When people post comments about other peoples photos, which isn't a problem in itself, but people usually quote the actual post, which includes the original...

    Tomorrowland Transit Authority

    Did they ever use the exterior track that goes around Space Mountain for the TTA/People Mover, or is it just an aesthetic touch? Right before you enter Space Mountain there's always a turn-off, but it always goes straight through. I'm wondering if they've ever used this turn-off before, or if...

    Beach Club Anecdote

    This is or those of you looking for hidden treasurers and oblique nooks and crannies. Last time I was at WDW, I saw Wishes four of my seven nights. Two of those times I saw it from the Beach Club. The first time I stumbled across this, it was by chance - while just about at the top of the...

    English Listening Device for Intl' Parks

    I'm wondering if there is an Assisted Listening Device (ALD) or some headphones that play the attraction narration in pure English. I read the other thread about the language barrier, but if some narrations are in Japanese, I would assume it would be hard to get the plot of the attractions...

    General Joe Potter on EPCOT Center

    Thought this may be of interest to some of you: an interview between the US Army Corp of Engineers and General Joe Potter, and they mention the construction of EPCOT Center. There's probably more to that interview, but I am unable to find it: www.usace.army.mil/.../eng-pamphlets/ep870-1-12/c-16.pdf

    Kingdom WDW's Trip Repor'!

    When I went to California earlier this year, our tagline was "Wildfires can't stop us." Now it seems to be "Tropical Storms can't stop us." Our official vacation was supposed to be from August 20th-26th, staying at the Beach Club at the Stone Harbor Club with a standard view room. However, a...

    Theme Park Commando or Detail Noticer?

    I'm curious to see how the members here tour the parks. Are you all more concerned with getting everything done and doing everything, or rather stopping to smell the roses, or in this case, watching Talking Trashcans?

    Questions

    Just some basic info: * Canon SD750 with 2GB memory. * I have two batteries just-in-case the other one runs out. (This has happened to me many times before.) * Obsessive photo taking personality. (Not of family, are you kidding me? :lol:) While some rides pose a "No Flash Photography" rule...

    RCT2: Anyone Still Playing?

    I liked RCT2 a lot better than the third ones. Anyone else? It just seemed like the layout was simple, and offered a great interface (from a casual gamer's perspective.)

    Grand Floridian Cove

    I was walking around the GF on our last trip, but I saw near the Boca Chica building (on the beach by the Beach Pool) a sign that said "Jessica Cove" or similar name on the beach. Can anyone shed a light on why that sign was there, and who it was possibly dedicated to? (Sorry, I don't have...

    All to Yourself

    Anyone else ever fantasize about having the parks all to yourself for one day or night? I'd be walking the BTMRR mines, or exploring each scene in PotC on my own speed. I'm curious to see what everyone else comes up with.

    EPCOT Refurb Sign

    Does anyone know the dialog on the sign for the EPCOT refurb signs? It mentions Siemens in it. It's different from the "Pardon our Pixie Dust" sign, but I can't remember it.

I never had the chance or desire to go, but I could go recently, so here's my report (Pictures being upped soon): Sunday we left early and flew into San Francisco, where the air smelt of smoke, and though it looked beautiful...

    Robida Flats

    Robida's Flats, Robida Flats, I never got the name of it. My guess is that the name is referring the kind of projection used in that scene, but I always thought it was a place. Which one?

    Questions for Park History Buffs

    1. Where did the logos for the pavilions originate from? Where were they used? 2. Where was the "Feel the Flow" song from in UoE? 3. Are there any references to Future World of Old in the present Future World? I know of the Horizons logo in Mission: Space, but are there any more? Thanks...
