Actually I was busy passing through. This is the start of a 6+ National Park road trip.

I think a Wreck-It Ralph Sugar Rush indoor/outdoor overlay would be a good transition point from Fantasyland to Tomorrowland.
This reminded me of my first ever project I did on here with some other amazing Imagineers! It was for @Pi on my Cake One Little Spark Competition. We made "Digital Kingdom" with Sugar Rush being the headlining indoor/outdoor attraction and castle. Very fun project to work on. Shoutout to Team Purple!

As we come to the end of it, this Magic Kingdom day was awesome. I thought people were being facetious when they said that they felt safer at Disney World than the grocery store. Honestly, I can back that up. Cast Members are awesome and on the ball with masks and social distancing is incredibly easy. There’s this real “all in this together” vibe and it’s one of the few good contagious things.

I wonder...what should replace the Speedway at the Magic Kingdom? Given the TRON Lightcycle Run is right nearby, we can't do another big E-ticket. Plus, the Speedway doesn't really give us enough room to do anything big. All I know is I'd like to see the Alice in Wonderland ride cloned from Disneyland right nearby the Mad Tea Party, so that'd get rid of a small chunk of the Speedway track.
I like the Alice in Wonderland idea. Wouldn't have to be an exact clone of Disneyland's, but a dark ride based on the film would be a welcome addition to Fantasyland. That, or use the land for a new version of Mr. Toad.

Wait till you run into some doofus running around the bathroom without his mask 😡

Also rode Kilimanjaro Safari, and they were loading every row. I didn’t know the partitions weren’t plexiglass it was just cloth and fancy seram wrap, not very safe feeling. Throw in the family in front of me took off their masks while on the safari, and I was on edge.

At the same kudos to the rides with capacities that have remained unchanged. Mania and Saucers are both operating at full capacity every time I have gone. Makes the lines go faster.

I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t have the same experience I did.

Hey it happens, and I’ll be going back. Currently living within 10 to 15 minutes of all the major theme parks when the traffic is good.

Animal Kingdom has been the only promblem area. Studios, Epcot and Springs have been just lovely. Especially our dining experience at Jaleo the staff accommodated all of our covid safety needs such as outdoor dinning, extra cleaning, extra straws, etc.

Full grown man, at least in his 40s.
He definitely knows better than to walk around the bathroom sans mask.

I will also throw in that restrooms aren’t socially distanced. All urinals and sinks are open for use. Partitions between each sink will be very much welcome. Along with higher partitions for urinals to go up higher
Things like that are a big factor keeping me from going. Be in a place like that where enforcement and safety features are lax with an asymptomatic carrier and that could be it. Granted, I'm living with some high risk people (and even though I'm healthy and young risk factors run in my family amd I could have them and not know. Plus, not having risk factors doesn't male you free of risk) so I need to be extra careful. I can definitely understand people in a different situation from me visiting parks and I don't want to disparage that. But if there are weak spots like this I can't see myself feeling safe emough to justify it until either there's a vaccine or my local FL hospital stops having a reliably overflowing ICU. Though seeing the walk on crowds for rides sure does make it look tempting lol

Typically I wouldn’t go because back home my family is high risk, but since im with my roomates and they are going to go regardless. Might as well go because if they catch Ima end up catching it too.

So gonna just hope it just works out.

Makes sense lol. If I was in your shoes I probably would. Less crowds and it being a rule that no one can come near me? Sounds amazing!

And I really gotta give Disney and the guests credit for how good the safety standards are even there are some weak spots and belligerent guests here or there. I remember when I worked there I couldn't even get people to stop sitting on the very clearly broken rope fence while we were waiting on maintenance to fix it. Heck, my friend who work the Peter Pan ride talked about how they couldn't even reliably get people to stop going to the bathroom in cups mid-queue (three times that he saw personally in just a two month period they found cups full of...stuff... left behind). The fact that mask/safety stuff has been followed as well as it has is astounding to me! They've done about as good as could be done here.
