A Spirited Perfect Ten

As many as you want, just cant BYO anymore. You can be a slobbering alcoholic wreck, you just have to pay the mouse.

This also means no consuming alcohol in public spaces.... so if you and someone wanted to enjoy a quiet glass of champagne while watching the sunset, thats verboten as well.

Speaking as someone who spent their first day doing laundry because some beer exploded in some other guys suitcase leaking onto our checked luggage, I don't know that I have as huge an issue with this one.

So is it like the soda stream stuff, where some suit said they were losing out on X amount of dollars by having said policy?

Yes, bags are x rayed and any cruise I've been on, subjected to search. Hate to admit I've had mine searched several times. Once because of a curling iron and once for a bottle of Listerine.

metal detectors as well in the Alaska cruise going from Vancouver.

Or apples to oranges.

Oh yeah, right. I got ya. Because 7DMT is family coaster themed to going underground to see little people and treasure. And Gringott's is a family coaster themed to going underground to see little people and treasure. Totally different.

But when you go to settle your bill at the end of you cruise and find you have an $850 bar tab that was missed between the wife's new found love for $25 ice cream drinks and magic bands.

Just buy multiple packs and pour all the contents into a ziploc bag then duct tape it into a nice square form.

You forgot the wicked witch, they both have a wicked witch. Oh and both of them are too proud of themselves, seriously both rides do not deserve the fanfare they give themselves in the end.

I love Bellatrix.

Nintendo Land would be pretty much the perfect thing to go between SWL and TSL. I know, I know, it doesn't fit with the theme of DHS but it would it would be a great family section with the potential for a great E-ticket...

Yes and it's coming to Universal. Your point is moot. You'll get to visit it if you want to.

Moving on.....

What was I thinking. Levels of intensity almost the same. You could probably completely swap them for each other and never know the difference.

So why did Animation need to close at DHS? Nothing was announced for that area, right?

I'm surprised that the DHS changes weren't presented as a re-imagining of the park a la DCA's redo. I guess the execs prefer dribbling out the new stuff in Florida. Still, they could've vaguely promised new shows, new entertainment, etc.

Launch Bay is expected to go in there.

 

[Next Big Thing]

You're assuming that. You're assuming that its only two rides despite a small and rather vocal group of us saying otherwise.

The amount of sheer overreaction on these forums has gone to plaid.

It would be 3 rides actually since Star Tours will be included.

Considering that ground breaking is still a long ways off, I'm not concerned. Gotta think there's more.

I definitely think there's more to the land, i'm not sure if we'll see another ride or not, but there's definitely more to be announced for DHS in general.

We admittedly drink more than most on our Disney Cruise ( never, ever sloppy) and we've only seen one sloppy couple on 3 7-days. We bought most of our drinks from the ship, but had 1-2 late evening cocktails on the limited carry on liquor we brought normally after all of the bars had closed. So DCL wasn't losing any money. But now...they likely will. if they want to increase on-board liquor sales they should continue to improve over 21 evening activities.

We did the same thing on the Wonder. We enjoyed our evenings in the Cadillac Lounge, and then after closing we made cocktails in our cabin to bring up on deck in the adult section.

Movies have yet to come out between now and groundbreaking - they may be holding back to announce a couple more rides for perhaps the next SW gathering/convention and/or the next D23.

If you're a die hard fan of the franchise, rides are awesome but in a way, the stores and restaurants (and perhaps roaming characters) are attractions themselves - as long as they're done on the theming level as high as Uni's Harry Potter.

Hmmm... Wondering what SW themed bathrooms will be like?

7DMT is actually a more intense coaster than Gringott's.

 

[Next Big Thing]

7DMT is actually a more intense coaster than Gringott's.

I disagree if only because of the launch near the end of the ride.

Overall, I expect Slinky's to be more intense than every WDW coaster except E:E and RNRC. Obviously WDW isn't known for intense coasters, but it should be a fun little coaster that will probably have terrible capacity if it's anything like FireChaser at Dollywood (750 riders per hour).

I am thinking terrible capacity too. There are only 2 blocks, so three trains at a time max. And the length doesn't appear to be much longer than 7DMT.
