I’m the same way with Prince Charming Regal Carrousel…that came from an amusement park in my hometown of Maplewood, NJ and my parents told me that they took me on it at 18 months old, so I make it a point to ride it on every trip.There are a lot I would miss, but Carousel of Progress has a lot of sentimental value for me, having ridden it at the NY World's Fair as a little one.
To the folks saying Soarin’.. that’s sadly ‘been’ gone/massively downgraded since it was redone to the Around the World version. Who thought that the scent of literal dirt was an improvement over the original orange grove scent, not to mention the slow paced, completely artificial visuals, So sad what’s happened to a once fabulous attraction.
Watch & listen to its original incarnation and you’ll see what I’m talking about. (Which returns periodically at DCA, thankfully). You’ll probably be surprised to see just how much better it truly was. The only thing that’s better with around the world I’d argue is the ending CG animation of Tink. (Which ‘that’ for sure needed an upgrade) But that’s it:I never got to experience the original but this version is pretty great for me!

Except for the audio in some places. It seems very 90s audio quality.This is a tough one but I would have to say Muppet vision. As a life long Muppet fan, I would have a very hard time if (or most likely when) it gets removed. It was Jim Hensons last Muppet project and outside of Waldo being outdated, it holds up as well as any 3D show at WDW.
