We loved motion, too. So much to do. Now, it's mostly festival's and food booth's. Not anything to do there. I still love the World Showcase, and love visiting the different countries. I can't fly to Europe, but I do love those countries.
I think what Disney is really lacking is something that has that universal appeal across several age groups and both genders. Star Wars as a franchise has a HUGE following, but it IS still MORE geared towards boys. I know girls who are into it, but not many and none of them are girly girls, whereas MOST of my Harry Potter fan friends are girls, and most of us are also quite girly. Harry Potter appeals to a large cross section of people...Star wars does too, but not AS broad. I am hoping they can do what Universal did with Harry Potter and make Star Wars land appealing, even to non-fans. If they rely too heavily on the characters rather than on the theming, they'll have trouble drawing in the non-fans. Then you have a problem with a family like ours where DS LOVES it and DD hates it. We have to make a choice...do we split up so that DS can get his SW fix and DD can still do something SHE likes, or do we do SW and force her to endure something she will hate, or do we skip it all together and disappoint DS? Last Summer, we split up and the only thing DD had to endure was watching the Jedi Training thing DS did.
This Star Wars is
Well, my DS wouldn't even go into HM. I checked BEFORE we got into the line that there was a parent swap. They told me there was, and to ask the next CM in the line...so we did...and they passed us on to the next CM...and that CM passed us on to the next...until we were at the doors and DS started crying hysterically saying he didn't want to go in and the CM said the parent swap was past the pre-ride thing with the entry hall, which is the scariest part. So DS freaked out before even getting to the door and we had to file back through the line because I couldn't even get him to the Parent swap area. I didn't get to go on it that night because we had waited 30 minutes in the line only to have to leave and not get to swap and I would have had to wait another 30 minutes to do it after DD and DH came out. So I went to guest relations and explained and they gave me a free fastpass for it the next day so I could go without waiting in line. DD went on it more than once...she didn't think it was scary at all.
Greece would be cool, too...a lot of history and culture there...and food!!! Africa seems under represented, as well. The only country from Africa is Morocco, isn't it? And I don't think South America is represented at all, which is why Brazil makes so much sense.
Wait, what? Did they add lights? When we were there last Summer, I brought flashlights...it was SOOOO hard to see, and I'm a clutz even with GREAT lighting.Animal Kingdom at night is awesome. I love all the lights. Help's with my night blindness!!
Next time ask to skip the stretching room. They'll take you through a doorway (where they take wheelchair/scooters through) and you'll board a Doom Buggy at the exit area.
I know a multitude of Star Wars enthusiasts of all ages and genders. Those of us who loved it as a kid passed it on to our kids and The Clone Wars/Rebels opened the door for more kids to enjoy. With strong female characters like Padme/Leia/Rey/Ahsoka/Asajj it's not geared only towards boys. I'm not getting the girly girl thing. I know girly girls (and girly guys) who are way into SW. That shouldn't be a factor.
Ill be your designated pusher, as long you pay me the trip
I think that is the point of why they pushed hard on ROGUE ONE (even if the weak beta hardcore nerd fans hated it) to have a woman main character with a very good support team.
Wait, what happened? tornados or just very strong severe storms?
believe tornadoes
We kept driving until we hit an area with power. Still rain hard. Trees uprooted. Trunks of trees without branches. Live wires everywhere. Most roads blocked. Packed suitcase and drove
I've lived here 33 years. It will not be the same for decades
