Hi guys.

Have put together a challenge for myself, my BFF and my family to complete whilst in WDW and would like your opinions as to if you think this will work well. It would also be much appreciated if any of the things mentioned are no longer valid and if there are any good ones to add.

Good job - that sounds like a lot of fun!

The only one I know that has changed is #17 in MK. The ring in the concrete was removed during renovations. I looked for it in march 2007 and a CM told me it was gone.

Maybe you could replace it with "Make a wish in Cinderella's wishing well" or "Riding Cinderella's horse" (it's the only one w/a gold ribbon on it's tail on the carousel.)
