Hey folks, go easy on the original poster. I don't really see any whining, just an expression of disappointment that some of the attractions will be closed. We are all disappointed when things are closed, when the weather is bad, and when the crowds are too big, etc . . .
Yes, the rides are only one part of the Disney experience, but they are indeed a MAJOR part of it, if not the biggest reason, by far, that people come to Disney. We are all disappointed when they're closed, but I did not see any whining, threats to not go, or absurd requests to cancel refurbishments. Put all the parks together, and you have about 120 to 150 attractions, including parades and fireworks shows. A certain percentage will always be under major refurbishment that forces a closure. Some of these will be on major attractions. That's life.
An emotionally healthy person will acknowledge it, maybe pout a little, then move on. Gee, isn't that what the original poster did?
