E-Ride Night's WDW TRIP UPDATE! 1/24/09

Hey guys, just got back from a week long WDW trip with my girlfriend. Had a blast, thought I'd share some updates with you!

MK:

- Splash Mountain was running perfectly, everything looked clean and sharp.

- CoP had some issues with the spinning of the rooms and in the second room, the host's hair was all messed up.

- Haunted Mansion was running stunningly and I'm still so impressed with the new rooms!

- Crowd levels were quite average all week at this park, despite the tripplanner's website saying it's a low week.

MGM (yes I still call it that):

- Toy Story Mania is a great ride! However, if you want a fastpass for it make sure you get there right at the park opening because they were gone in about 25 minutes!

- Sci-Fi Dine-In felt a little weak this year. The food wasn't that great tasting and the waiters didn't seem to interested in anything.

- The High School Musical thing on wheels was so rediculous. I can't stand anything about that show, and it just made me angry seeing people fake sing. Trust me, most of them are faking it. I hate teeny boppers!

AK:

- Due to the cold weather, hardly anyone was riding the KRR.

- EE was running perfectly, and yes, the mist was working.

- Corn Dog nuggets are great! You should all try em!

Epcot:

- SE was running perfectly, it didn't break down once, can you believe it! The video at the end always make me laugh and my girlfriend was cracking up like crazy! It's great that they let you email the video to yourself for free so you can download it to you computer! A great souvenir!

- The line for Figment was completely dead, I don't think anyone likes that anymore. It's a shame. I miss the old Dreamfinder version.

- All of the World Showcase had their entertainers out each day and made for an exciting time, as I've never really explored each individual country for a long period of time.


Overall, the crowd levels were quite on the low side but the fastpasses were still "sellin like hotcakes", so if anyone is planning on going, don't think you'll get away with getting FP times whenever, you still have to be aggressive about it a little bit.

Hope you all enjoyed this!

Thanks

Kyle :wave::wave:

The Yeti is in B-mode for the a while. Until something major either happens with downtime or they get that huge trap up over him. It sounds like the poster might not know the difference between A and B mode. I mean really those of us that have seen him in A mode should count ourselves lucky!

Thanks for the update!

Yes! Someone who agrees with me. My girlfriend always laughs at how much I hate that show. I always move in the opposite direction of that thing, it bothers me so much.
 
god, we go down in 6 weeks and it will be the first time for me since 1994 and the FIRST time total for my wife and kids so I hope and pray that the yeti will be working. It'll be another 5 years before we go back! :(

Gotta agree.........High School musical in HS is a total waste of time. Looked at it for about 2 minutes then moved on...

We sent home the Spaceship Earth video and it turned out great.

When we went in December you could e-mail the postcard image. I just checked them and there isn't a video link, unless it expired. Clicking on the postcard image brings you to Siemens games at the Disney website similar to the ones in the exit area of SSE.

Thank you! I'll make sure to check it out in June! :sohappy:

I know, and it seems like they will continue to exploit these talentless people by coming out with a 4th movie. But whatever. Its gotta be worth something, I mean my little cousins enjoyed the show back in July of last year. It was showcasing the mediocrity of the 2nd movie then though.

Oh man, I don't even know where to begin. You are not being unique by calling the park by the wrong name. There are many other people just as dumb and stubborn as you are.

...or maybe because since it was called MGM for almost 20 years, people got used to it and it's hard for them to think of it by another name.
