    Jungle Cruise at night

    We rode it at night, and it was a lot of fun - a very "adventurous" feel in the dark. For me, I was particularly amused by the end of the ride. Our skipper had done a great job, and wound up the ride with some good finishing laughs just as we were approaching the dock... but there was some...

    A few tomorrowland questions.

    Just got back from my first trip to Tomorrowland since my own kid days. I miss the Skyway, that was a really fun part of my early trips - it's cool to see the park from up high, particularly when you're little and mostly looking up at everything....

    Favorite Little Kid Moments

    Just returned from being in WDW this weekend with my niece and nephew and their parents, where there were plenty of great moments. In the Magic Kingdom, my niece, 4, got mad when Mom said "No" about something or other, and made a point of *not* enjoying anything for the rest of the evening...

    Why was the EPCOT Wand removed?

    Just for the record, the hat is supposed to be permanent, right?

    Why was the EPCOT Wand removed?

    Thanks, though I have to admit the primary reason I know about them is because the All Star Squadron (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All-Star_Squadron) was based there during WWII. :) Thanks to Expo_Seeker for the great explanation of the Wand! I'm always fascinated by the way sometimes things...

    Why was the EPCOT Wand removed?

    Just curious - I've read why they put the wand there next to Spaceship Earth in the first place (to increase EPCOT's "Mouse Branding?"), but what's the reasoning behind taking it down now? Do they plan for some similar "Trylon" to go with the SEE "Perisphere," or have they elected to go back to...

    Concierge Level

    Ah, thanks, I should have figured that out....

    Concierge Level

    Looking around, I'm a little confused by what the concierge level is. Does everybody staying at the particular hotel have access to it, or is it something you have to pay extra for? (We're staying at the Wilderness Lodge, and I'm not the one who made reservations, so I'm not sure if we're...

    Bizzare scene at Philharmagic

    All I can think is that they must have been relatives of Borat. The reaction's pretty similar, too - combination of "not my problem" and bending over backwards for "Well, maybe that's how they do it in Kazakhstan?" But still... Even Borat courteously tried to find the proper disposal...

    Look At all the lazy people in the lazy river

    New to the party here... I assume Stacey is the star/host of one of the "internal" Disney World channels? Sounds like a good one.

    For all of those considering going in Oct.

    Any expectations for really early November (like, say, this coming Nov. 2-6, when we're going? :) ) Looking at historical weather and such, it seems like anything from really warm to quite chilly is a possibility, though now that the 10-day Weather Channel forecasts are kicking in, it looks...

    Just Curious: Where are The Incredibles?

    Cool, at least we'll be able to meet them! I was thinking it odd that Disney wouldn't have some sort of presence from super heroes, the one "genre" that's both underrepresented and being exploited by Universal with the Marvel characters. But on reflection, some sort of live Incredibles stage...

    Just Curious: Where are The Incredibles?

    Going to Disney World in early November with niece, nephew, and their Mom and Dad, and amassing lots of information and tips.... One thing just struck me - there don't seem to be any shows or attractions built around The Incredibles. Seems a little surprising, and made me wonder if there's a...
