Yeah, I think I'm sold.
Hubby loves fish tacos. There aren't many places around here that serve them.
And, I've always wanted to eat here just for the ambience.
Here's an example or what I'm talking about. Star Wars Land. Ever since Disney bought LucasFilm (which, by the way, was how many years ago?), there's been rumor after rumor of Star Wars Land coming to DHS. It's been common knowledge since the merger that Star Wars will have an increased presence at the parks and Iger even said the company has made a strategic decision to invest in Star Wars attractions at the domestic parks. He just hasn't said what, exactly where, and when. I'm not even sure Iger knew those details himself when he said that. Remember how long it took before Avatar broke ground? Star Wars is probably on the same timetable. Meanwhile, over the N&R threads, there are people here who claim to "know" exactly these details, only to change their mind to "know" something different entirely.
Meanwhile, Comcast has committed billions of dollars for new attractions, to rehab old ones, buy more land, build more hotels, a water park, and third gate theme park for Universal's domestic resorts and parks.
Meanwhile, EPCOT Center is in really bad shape and getting worse.
Meanwhile, the EPCOT monorail is in bad shape. Meanwhile, Comcast has built a people mover connected the two USO theme parks. Meanwhile, Comcast has plans to build a monorail to the future third park.
I'm sure Disney knows they can't do nothing and get away with it. They must be planning things so they won't fall behind. It just takes years for them to figure out what they are going to do and finally announce something.
It's just logical. And you don't need to hear rumor after rumor to see what needs to be done and what will probably eventually get done!
I'm far from caught up but I'd pick Teppan Edo, a must do at least once each trip. Food always spot on.
Then there would be world peace!Better (IMO) quote of the day:
"Today me will live in the moment unless it's unpleasant in which case me will eat a cookie."
Cookie Monster
I swear I misread lapu lapus as lupus lupus.. then Dr. House rang on my mind..Now, if Teppan Edo also served Lapu Lapus...!![]()

I suppose they think this is you while you give a like:I am hesitant to give likes, because some people get nervous when they see an alert from me.![]()
Working in Brampton, home to one of the largest Indo-Canadian populations, my clients often bring me in homemade Indian food.
I bring it all home for Son #2, who loves it.
{{{HUGS}}} and thanks for all the 'likes' this evening a few of you have been doling out.![]()
This made me think of the tie-dye cheesecake at Pop Century.I just googled "rainbow colored food". Oh my...

in my last trip, it was the magic kingdom train![]()
Yeah we stayed at Boardwalk one year and the room was huge. I hope our luggage liked it since it was in the room more than us.It will most likely be just my son and me, so a value would do just fine. But now you got me thinking of a moderate. Port Orleans Riverside is one of my favorites.

We fell in love with POR too (my mother and I). It was so calm and nice to just walk around the grounds.Sounds like us. We pretty much only use the resort as a place to crash and clean up.
Can't go wrong with POR. Our favorite, so far...![]()

You're not understanding what I was trying to get at. This post has nothing to do with my opinion of management, or my opinions of what I think should be done or shouldn't be done. I was talking about the threads under rumors and why they are turning some people away. Because that's what we are discussing here. You can't have a conversation about those threads in those threads because the people in those threads generally don't see a problem there, or they wouldn't be actively involved there.Don't mean to sound like I'm picking on you Peter, but, two things.
First and foremost this is exactly the kind of thing that we don't discuss in WITWIBS. It is light hearted and not based on current conditions in any Disney Parks, personal life are OK, but not the current management decisions of Theme Park operators. Yes, occasionally a snide remark, but, no attempts to sway opinions or even attempt to have a sincere discussion. That needs to be in either General or Rumors, etc. or start a different thread. (note I didn't say thraed)
Second that question about LucasFilm... unless I have fallen asleep for a long period of time, that happened less then a year ago, didn't it? What's the hurry, it's not going anywhere.
My only issues with these kind of threads are people who take everything too personal.You're not understanding what I was trying to get at. This post has nothing to do with my opinion of management, or my opinions of what I think should be done or shouldn't be done.

The point I was making is that there's really no news (for the most part). People who claim to know anything that's not the rumor of the day are bullied and humiliated. One of the points a I was trying to make was that by looking at what the competition is doing and the state of Disney's theme parks, you can easily predict what the company could be doing. That is more accurate than all the continuously changing rumors concerning Star Wars Land, which Iger himself probably didn't know yet what the details were but somehow people know more than he does, and anyone saying differently is automatically chastised and bullied on. Truth be told, there are other projects Disney is probably more concerned about right now,
such as the deterioration of EPCOT, but that has nothing to do with Star Wars Land so people are bullied not to talk about that project because the bullies who "know everything" won't let it.
When are you going? And why have we not heard every juicy detail?Darn..just noticed Tiki Room is closed pretty much the exact days of my upcoming trip. Lame

We take the boat from DTD every trip and have a lovely walkabout.We fell in love with POR too (my mother and I). It was so calm and nice to just walk around the grounds.
