We were walking into Adventureland early last week when a mom next to us started explaining to her daughter which attractions are in this land.
She said - "the Magic Carpets, Pirates, the Jungle Cruise and the Stairs ride".
Really??!!!!!!??? Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse much???
We used that line for the rest of the trip for anything that fit. "We're going on the Stairs ride!"
Oh my!
True if that were the situation, but it wasn't, which is why I added it to the thread where most posts have us reacting like this -

We enjoyed the attraction this year at night regardless of what people call it and got beautiful pictures of the castle and Space Mtn.
One has to try and remember that not everyone is as uptight about Theme Parks as we are. I was just having this conversation with my daughter last night. When I first went to WDW it never occurred to me to research it. It was a Theme Park, big deal. You buy a ticket you go in and ride some rides see some shows and when blisters form you head back to the parking lot and go home. WDW got more complex in recent years, but, people still do not instantly think, hey I need to read up on this. It just doesn't occur to them.
Always have and always will. I've never worn anything but shorts and T's during all my February trips. Wait, I take that back. One day during the 100th Birthday of Walt, I had to wear a windbreaker cause the north wind was a little chilly. Otherwise, always t's and shorts. You have to remember that when I would leave Vermont in February, quite often it was 20 or more below zero. That is a 65 degree difference and it seemed quite comfortable to me. I did have to chuckle at the Mittens, Parkas and Knit Hats worn by the CM's though.
Just different thinking my friend. You don't understand why someone would assume that going to a "fun" theme park would require an inquisition before going there, and I don't see why it would ever occur to them that they would. As someone that has been going there for 34 years. I just don't see how I can assume that they would know that all that planning was required to take a simple vacation to a theme park. I know it does now, but, if I had never been or if I didn't frequent boards like this one I surely would not know. Those same people don't even know that Disney boards exist. Why would they if they really weren't obsessed yet?
To you and to me that does sound like an impossible thing. However, I can tell you that it has happened. Many a person has gone to Burger King and ordered a Big Mac and many have gone to McDonalds and ordered a Whopper. It happens more often then we think. It is even easier to confuse something like Harry and Disney. That is just a movie that is a lot like something Disney would do.
