Been there, NOT done that....

[G00fyDad]

What attractions have you not accomplished on previous trips? I got to looking at some old (really old) Word trip planning files and I found one that listed the things we had not done at WDW yet. I removed all of the things that we had accomplished since then and here is the left over list:

Animal Kingdom
Kids Discovery Clubs
Habitat Habit!
Conservation Station
Affection Section
The Oasis Exhibits
Cretaceous Trail
Wildlife Express Train
EPCOT
Disney's Kim Possible World Showcase Adventure
The American Adventure
Reflections of China
National Treasures
Disney's Hollywood Studios
The Magic of Disney Animation
Journey Into Narnia: Prince Caspian
Magic Kingdom Theme Park
Main Street Vehicles

Well.... you won't be going on to Journey Into Narnia: Prince Caspian..

I've gone on everything except Mission Space: Orange, I don't ever want to wait the thirty extra minutes when I can go on green and wait 20.

Mission Space green is wayyyy better!! (thats the lighter one right??)

What is National Treasures in EPCOT?

I want to do the Kim Possible thing, when does it change to Agent P? I rather do Agent P

I haven't done The Magic of Disney Animation

What is National Treasures in EPCOT?

It's a small exhibit of artifacts from the Smithsonian Institution located inside the pre show area of The American Adventure.

You are really missing out on a great experience in the American Adventure. It is one of my favorite things to do in Disney. A very well done and patriotic attraction. In my opinion easily the best show in the World Showcase.

Yeah, we're going to do it this next trip. It will have to be squeezed into the 7 days we will be on land though. We're cutting our WDW trip shorter this next go around to take a cruise.

I think I have done everything I have wanted to do. Since I won't do any spinners, I certainly have not, and will not do, Astro Orbiters, etc...

The thing about The American Adventure is that their time schedule is wrong for park touring -- I understand why they do it, but no matter which end of World Showcase you start in at 11:00 -- by the time you circle around to the American Pavilion either you are 40 minutes too early for the show (if you bypass all attractions and go there directly) or you are 10 minutes late for the next show (if you stop and do even one single attraction on the way there)....That means no matter what, you are basically waiting between 30 - 40 minutes for the next show to start, and lots of people just bypass it instead of waiting.

It's done for a reason: to keep people at that far end of the park spending money while they wait....but I think it actually results in more people bypassing the attraction than staying to watch it. In the long run, Disney really doesn't care, since people will spend money in one of the other countries instead, with all money going back to them anyway.

The American adventure is definitely one of the best attractions on property. I tear up every time I've seen it and I bet I've seen it over 50 times.

were not even american and we tear up at it!:wave:

We've never done the American Adventure but will on our next trip. We'll have our grandchildren with us and I beleive that we have a responsibility to pass on our American Heritige.

June 2012 will be my 10th trip to WDW :sohappy: and I'm somewhat embarrassed at my "been there, not done that" list.
AK: Kali River Rapids and Tricera Top Spin
Studios: Fantasmic and American Idol Adventure
MK: Astro Orbiter
Country Bear Jamboree
Magic Carpets of Aladdin
Enchanted Tiki Room
Mad Tea Party
Jungle Cruise (DH and I but not DS and DD)
Epcot: Turtle Talk With Crush
Ellen's Energy Adventure
Impressions De France
Wonders of China
Journey into Imagination with Figment

I guess I'll just have to keep going back!

The only attraction I am kinda bummed we haven't been able to do yet during our four trips is TSMM. I know it has only been open for 2 of those trips, but the wait times were crazy due to us going during our Spring Break. Maybe next time!

 

[pumpkin7]

we never did the american adventure during our last trip. i didn't know what it was tbh so we never bothered.
we didn't really explore the pavillions either around world showcase. we went in the mexico one and great britain, so i'd like to explore those some more.
i also completely missed out club cool! again, that was from not knowing what it was.

we did however, try the Hall of Presidents for the first time last trip and i really enjoyed it. all those animatronics up on stage make for a real good show (especially when they're all doing their own thing when the spot light isn't on them!)

 

[ShookieJones]

Enchanted Tiki Room
Country Bears

Only because they're classics and can't believe I've never been in all my trips.
Going to hit them both in September.

Also - I think I'd like to see a couple of the movies in the World Showcase...
O' Canada and Reflections of China

I don't know if I'm missing anything here but I feel like with all the times we've been I should have at least seen them once.

 

[surfsupdon]

never been on dumbo....

 

[G00fyDad]

never been on dumbo....

Been going every year since I was 2 (currently 34) and I've never been on Tom Sawyer Island. My parents rode it before I was born and never liked it so they never took me or my brother on it. I always say I'm going to go on it, but I never do. I always say I am going to come back to it but I never do. I get in bright and early and try to race through a bunch of rides before the crowds get in.
