Maybe Toyota or Honda will pick up Test Track. After all, they may get the corporation too.

Author? I am willing to be the prof. in question has written or is writing a book about this very topic. That book is sure to become a text for the class. Though you may not know it you may have violated one of the Great Rules of College Registration: :confused:Do not take a class where the...

AUGUST we MUST There are 2 things to know. First, the Florida public schools start mid August (it used to be early August), so the crowds may be down a little after the second full weekend. HOWEVER, that is also the beginning of the Monsoon season. If you are lucky, there will only be a storm...

Disney mature As to where to find cheap & easy Disney merchandise, try any of the many Asian or eastern European importers. They do not seem to be bothered by licensing restrictions. Imagine what you could do with some of the Disney characters! Surely you will have to include Jessica Rabbit (or...

Geo/EPCOT

Chirstmas bears I have the soundtrack to the Country Christmas Bears from a collection of Disney CDs. It is now part of my holiday :xmas: iPOD playlist, along with the Haunted Mansion / Jack Skellington soundtrack. Yo Ho Yo Ho, The Elv-ish life for me! (Oops, no Pirat-ical Christmas!)

Dole Whips - HOORAY! I like mine to be a bottom of chocolate and the top pineapple. This always gets an odd look from the castmember, but I love it. If only they could do this as a swirl. :slurp: Yummmmmm!

Speedway [FONT="Comic Sans MS"]I am AMAZED that Disney has not adapted the Speedway to a CARS theme. It seems like a lost opportunity. This ride has long lines, even in the off seasons and could use some new management. But it is one of the "old school" rides, so they may not ever change it -...

November Weather I think the reason people move to Florida is for the weather in November and May. It is the best of the whole year. The crowds at the theme parks are still low - often no lines. We live here and try to spend as much time outside as possible in all of November. Sadly, some of...

Yo Ho -- Yo Ho ...the Pirate's Life for me! Seeing CAPT. Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribean is a huge thrill. I expect this is as true for Europeans as it is for we who live here. If they are open to "the kid in all of us" they might even appreciate Small World - before the stoller...

Hit by Fairy dust Usually I am hit by the magic when I am sitting in traffic waiting to go somewhere I don't want to go. A voice syas to me - "You HAVE to go to Disney World. O' if you mean when I am actually going .. That has to be when I see The Castle. Some day - in my wildest dreams - I...

Up Front When you ride to EPCOT - or any of the monorails - ask to sit up front. It is the very best way to get the whole effect of arriving at EPCOT or the MK. Tell them Walt sent you - or Mickey.:sohappy:

The older the film, or more distant its release in DVD, the less likely it will be to see the character. I personally have a treasured photo with Phil from Hercules (see my moniker and guess why). I doubt Johnny Appleseed was ever out signing autographs.:D

Walkin' It is not how much you weigh, but how much you can walk. I find the diversity of the human form enchanting. But, for your health and well being I would focus more on how far and how easily you can walk. If you each frugally and carefully, weight loss may happen as you travel through...

Animatronic Greatness! I believe that you have all left out the greatest animatronic - the Pirates! And some of Haunted Mansion is also animatronic. There is a fine distinction between robotics like Its a Small World and animatronics that appear more lifelike.

As a group ... ...Boat captains anywhere are not known for being the most reliable sources of information. But they ARE usually very imaginative, so that makes what they say all the more fun.:lol:

"Tryin' to Reason with Hurricane Season", sings Jimmy Buffett The September dates you listed are the very height of Hurricane season. Sept 10 is the peak day, with the most storms happening within a few days of that date. That being said, the reason it is so cheap is that the weather is so...

An Unparalleled treat You are in for the best time ever! Christmas is awesome at Disney:xmas:. We have been several times, including for The Millenial Event:sohappy:. The fireworks at MK are the very best on New Years Eve. Don't miss them. We usually hit the park of choice for the day early...

Bringers of Storms! Aah, Love Bugs - not the cute VWs racing along the interstate are these. No these are Harbingers of Killer 'Cane (Hurricanes, that is). They appear as soon as Hurricane Season begins. It has been said by wise Sachems and Sages that the number of love bugs squished on your...

Vows renewed I would think the patio by the bridge just past Rose & Crown OR on the other side of the bridge, by France OR any of the many other waterside patios, just as the fireworks finale is beginning would be very nice. I guess it depends on how longwinded your uncle is (says, I - a...
