Parks Game...Part 12! I Can't Believe We're Still Playing!

[weluvpluto]

I'm new to this game :flower: so I hope this hasn't been asked recently...

How many feet high is the Tree of Life in Animal Kingdom?

[Higgs22]

I'll venture a guess and say 190 feet....


Yes...after a long absence i have returned--good to see things are still going strong....now if life can stop getting so hectic....

[ksdave]

Higgs!! Great to "see" you. I have not been around much either, but caught the bug again recently due to my upcoming trip to Orlando.

I'll seconds Higgs guess of 190'.

[Higgs22]

Yeah Dave...I was there in October--so I have had the bug for a while...good to see you buddy....

I guess I can't third my own answer...so I'll wait here patiently for someone to tell us if we're right.... :earboy2:

[weluvpluto]

nope, but I'll give you some choices :wizard:

40 feet
145 feet
200 feet
250 feet

[tink85]

Let's go with 145, that sounds about right

[weluvpluto]

You got it tink85! :cool1:

The AAQ card goes to you :flower1:

[cra-z-4-dizney]

bumping because it was almost on the third page.......

[Higgs22]

Well to avoid being pushed down again...I'll jump in with a question....

:grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug:

Question for weluvpluto: I see you change hotels during stays----how do you like that? We're thinking about doing that sometime....

Thanks!

:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[poohpcgirl]

WeluvPluto- Yep, you got it.
Gee, that was fun. I will have to watch for this thread agian. LOL
:Pinkbounc

[weluvpluto]

:flower1:

First the question:
IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth officially debuted on ???

We usually stay for more than a week when we change hotels, and it's a step up from what we stayed at for our first part of our stay. We like to switch when we're there for 10 days or more, which most of our summer trips have become :cloud9: , it kinda feels like a whole new vacation :earboy2:

[marypops!]

im saying either 31st december 1999 or 1st january 2000
i think

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Thanks for the info weluvpluto!

The original Illuminations started in Oct 1996 for the 25th anniversary.

It's a fabulous show and I like the present soundtrack for it!

:wave: :wave: :wave:

[MickeyBabe]

IllumiNations 2000: Reflections of Earth first started showing on September 22, 1999. although the official debut wasl October 1, 1999.

SG1.... watch where you aim that thing... you nearly hit me! :earseek:


Uh..... the answer is October 1st 1971 :rolleyes:

[marypops!]

ok lets just say that the answers for this question were correct so err...
an AAQ to everyone who answered
SG1 you said kilimanjaro safari twice

[Higgs22]

LOL...that was a good question...as a follow up...which WDW attractions are based on non-Disney movies?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Let's see....

Most of The Great Movie Ride!

:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[JCTigger]

Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Show
Star Tours
Twilight Zone Tower of Terror (based on a tv show episode)

[MonorailDude]

Test Track, all of the World Showcase shows, Spaceship Earth. ::yes::

[gometros]

LOL...that was a good question...as a follow up...which WDW attractions are based on non-Disney movies?

Good one Higgs. I'll start.

Star Tours - MGM
Indiana Jones Stunt Show - MGM
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad - MK
Space Mountain - MK
Tomorrowland Transit Authority - MK
CoP - MK
Timekeeper - MK
It's A Small World - MK
Kilimanjaro Safari - AK

World Showcase - EPCOT
The Land Ride - EPCOT
Test Track - EPCOT

[ryley26]

how about primevil whirl ,wwtbamm,rock n rollercoaster tower of terror,just a few. :cool1: :cool1:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Hey Ya'll !!!

I, too, was going to list EVERYthing else not based on a Disney character or movie--------but then I re-read the question....

Can we get a ruling Higgs----does there have to BE a movie that the ride is based on or does it include EVERYthing that is not based on a DISNEY MOVIE?

HELP?????

:cool1: :moped: :cool1:

[MonorailDude]

Yeah, I think you are right. All of my guesses seem to be wrong then. :rolleyes: I guess I need to read it more closely. ::yes::

[gometros]

Iinteresting interpretation of Higgs' question. I'll narrow my guesses down to

Star Tours (Star Wars)
Indiana Jones Stunt Show (Indiana Jones)
Body Wars (Fantastic Voyage)
HISTA (HOney, I Shrunk the Kids)
MuppetVision 3-D (The Muppet movie series)

[Granny]

I suppose that if HISTA is correct, then HISTK Playground at MGM Studios is also an answer.

Also, isn't the PT Boat scene at Backlot Tours supposed to be based on some movie (non-Disney)?

[Higgs22]

OK...Sandy got what I meant by the question--I was looking for rides based on movies not made by Disney (but I will expand that to include a TV show--since there was also a movie based on that show)
wdwtheplacetobe--gets credit for most of the Great Movie Ride
JCTigger--gets credit for Twilight Zone Tower of Terror (the TV show/movie) Indy Jones and Star Tours
Sandy gets credit for Body Wars and Muppetvision (they weren't part of Disney when that was made...)
As for HISTA--that movie was actually made by Disney--so it doesn't count...
Also Granny, the backlot tour PT boat was re-themed to Pearl Harbor, another Disney movie...

That's all I can think of...anyone got any other guesses that I mayhave missed?

[JCTigger]

That's all I can think of...anyone got any other guesses that I mayhave missed?

If you want to be really picky then you can say universe of energy which shows Jeopardy.. which i dont think is associated with Disney... other then that i cant think of anything....

[Higgs22]

No--JCTigger that works too---Universe of Energy does revolve around Disney...good answer :earsboy:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Here's a nice easy one for a Friday morning.....

Where (specifically) in the World can you find real live Tiggers????


:hourglass :hourglass :hourglass

[ryley26]

maharaja jungle trek in animal kingdom :cool1:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

A tiggerific AAQ for you, Ryley!!!!!

:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

[Higgs22]

What??? The Tigger walking around the Magic Kingdom (and the other parks) isn't a real live Tigger??? Perish the thought!!! :rotfl:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Also TRUE!!!!!

Your next question, Higgs...

:rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

[Higgs22]

OK here's one I don't think has been asked...
On Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Play It!--what are the prizes awarded to the player in the hotseat? And what point levels do you have to reach to get those prizes?

Please note...I am basing this question on my experience in October---I'm not sure if they've changed the prizes since then...but I don't think so....

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I sort of know the partial answer....my friend was in the hot seat and won 2 years ago....

pins, hat, and t-shirt....


:wave: :wave: :wave:

[MonorailDude]

I think it is.............

$1,000- 5 pins. Baseball Cap.
$3,200- 10 pins and a T-Shirt.
$1,000,000- 15 pins, hat, T-Shirt, Disney Cruise.

At least something like this. ::yes::

[Higgs22]

I think it is.............

$1,000- 5 pins. Baseball Cap.
$32,000- 10 pins and a T-Shirt.
$1,000,000- 15 pins, hat, T-Shirt, Disney Cruise.

At least something like this. ::yes::

Thay's close enough...the $32,000 prize was a golf shirt instead of a T-shrit...but like I said, close enough--you're up
:earsboy:

[JamesD]

Well, you also get a lanyard for the pins at any level above 1000 points.
At 1 million, you also get a very nice jacket, and a 1 million point medallion!

[Higgs22]

True--I forgot the lanyard (and I should remember that one--I have one hanging beside my bed...)

[MonorailDude]

Thanks for the AAQ Card. But I'm sort of busy now. The next person who has a question that wants to ask it, may use mine. :wave: :banana:

[Higgs22]

Well...it's wide open---Anyone got a question???

[AKQJ10]

OK, I'll dust off an AAQ card:

What was the original name of the Electric Umbrella?

[Higgs22]

Communicore Gifts???

(OK a lame guess.... :rotfl: )

[AKQJ10]

Nah... not lame... ;)

Not corect, either! :p

[marypops!]

i know i know
it was stargate
btw i got your trivia book for chrimbo and love to read it when im bored
:)

[AKQJ10]

You're right, Mary!!! (and thanks for the kidn words about the book! Happy you're enjoying it!!)

A "sincere thanks for your contribution to my daughter's college fund" AAQ card to you!

[marypops!]

ok a mathmatical question
i start my magic kingdom trip at 9.38 am i walk up main street and chaeck out the shops (14 mins) i walk round to adventureland and walk up to the swiss family treehouse (8 mins) i get i line for jungle cruise (5 min wait) and get on the ride go on the aladdin ride (15 min wait) get on then leave to spash mountain to get fastpass then get onto BTMRR (25 min wait) then go through the fastpass line to splash mountain (4 min walk to the ride) after this is leave to watch philarmagic (10 min wait) IASW (20 min wait) and the mad tea cups (15 min wait) then go to tommorrowland to get fastpasses for space mountain then went on TTA (2 min wait) got off and went onto space mountain (10 min wait) after a magical morning i went back to the hotel
for a rest before going to another theme park how long was it there for and what time did i leave (excluding food and characters) find out the length of the rides and give an extimated time
i know it's confusing and now i need to find out the answer too so try and find out before me
:p
EDIT: i changed the answer because i found it out also don't give the time of the rides you need to add the time of the rides to the already waiting times for thr rides

[JCTigger]

i think maybe i figured this out

i start my magic kingdom trip at 9.38 am i walk up
main street and chaeck out the shops (14 mins)
14 minutes
i walk round to adventureland and walk up to the swiss family treehouse (8 mins)
wait time 8 minute length to walk thru 15 minutes
i get i line for jungle cruise (5 min wait) and
5 min wait 9 minute ride
get on the ride go on the aladdin ride (15 min wait)
15 min wait 1minute 20 seconds
then leave to spash mountain to get fastpass
5 minutes
get onto BTMRR (25 min wait) then
25min wait 3.5 min ride
go through the fastpass line to splash mountain (4 min walk to the ride)
4minute wait 11 minute ride
after this is leave to watch philarmagic (10 min wait)
10 min wait 12 minute ride
IASW (20 min wait) and
20min wait 10.5 min ride
the mad tea cups (15 min wait)
15 minute wait 1.5 minutes
then go to tommorrowland to get fastpasses for space mountain
10 minute walk
then went on TTA (2 min wait)
2 minute wait 10 minute ride
space mountain (10 min wait)
10 minute wait 2.5 minute ride
after a magical day i went back to the hotel
after this how long was it there for and what time did i leave (excluding food) find out the length of the rides and give an extimated time

202minute 70 seconds
3hours 22minutes 70 seconds
start time 9.38 end time 1.00.70 seconds

:teacher: that one was fun but chances are im totally wrong :confused3

[marypops!]

well i didn't add the extra seconds and i got a bit lower so i guess im wrong or your wrong
depends on who agrees with you

[MickeyBabe]

:wave2: I'll agree!

:3dglasses

[marypops!]

hmmm
ill have to say it's about 10 mins lower *hint hint*
btw i can't be 70 seconds because there are 60 seconds in a min

[Higgs22]

How about 212 minutes???

hmmm
ill have to say it's about 10 mins lower *hint hint*
btw i can't be 70 seconds because there are 60 seconds in a min

[marypops!]

i said lower not higher
:p

[Higgs22]

Well...I give up---math was never my strong subject...

[JCTigger]

so about 193 minutes or 2hours and 13 minutes

when i was adding the seconds i wasnt really paying attention to the fact that i had 70 seconds not 1min 10 seconds more.....

[marypops!]

il just say your right
i got 192 and in hours i got 3hrs 12
so i would leave at 12.50 have lunch at the hotel then go to EPCOT
:p
a mathmatical "oh my head hurts i didn't know that i would be here for this long "AAQ to you then JCTigger

[DisneyBen]

Wow, over 4 days without a post in this thread. That's gotta be some kind of record!! :earseek:

I'll use an old AAQ card to get this one rolling again:
Name the 2 tracks of Space Mountain and the lengths of each (in feet).

[ksdave]

I know they're named Alpha and Omega. But any guess at lengths would be a wild one.....let's try 2,245' and 2,315'.
I won't be able to confirm since I'll be on my way to Orlando tomorrow morning :Pinkbounc

[DisneyBen]

You got part of it, Dave. The tracks are called Alpha and Omega, but your guess is too low.

Have a great time on your trip!!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Have a magical trip, Dave!!!!!


How about 2727 ft and 2927 ft????

:cool1: :confused3 :cool1:

[Higgs22]

I have no idea on the lengths...I do know that they are not using the names Alpha and Omega anymore...when I was there in October--I think they just had no names on them...

As for the lengths---how about 3,000 and 3,100 feet???

[MonorailDude]

3,186 feet & 3,196 feet
(Alpha & Omega tracks)

::yes::

[DisneyBen]

You got it, Kevin. AAQ cards to Dave (when he gets back from Orlando) and Kevin.

Sorry for the mistake, Higgs. I haven't been to WDW since the summer of 2003 :( , so I wouldn't know.

[Higgs22]

Ben...that's no problem...they still might have those names...the signs just have been taken down...

[MonorailDude]

Okay, here is an easy one...........

How many horses are on the Carrousel?

[Higgs22]

Is it 101???

[Corporal_Radar]

what about over 60 some odd horses????

[BluesTravlr00]

what are 72 horses? oh, wrong game. just '72 horses.'

[MonorailDude]

what are 72 horses? oh, wrong game. just '72 horses.'
No to all. But BluesTravlr00 is the closest so far. ::yes:: OR Higgs. ;) HINT HINT.

[Carol Ann]

82 horses?

[LindaD]

90 horses, at least that's the 'official' number!

[MonorailDude]

LindaD, your answer is probably more current than mine. It's really close anyway too. I had 87 on my source.

A galloping AAQ Card to you.

[Higgs22]

Bump.... :Pinkbounc :bounce:

[MickeyBabe]

Bump.... :Pinkbounc :bounce:


Hmmmm "Bump" .... That is a strange question. :confused3


I'll take a guess and say.... "Test track"

:p

[Higgs22]

No...Mbabe--the answer was actually Tommorowland Speedway...but since that was such a good guess...You can ask a question... :rotfl:

[Higgs22]

Quick question to bump things up....

Where in WDW can you find the drink Beverly??

[DisneyBen]

Higgs - I believe you can find Beverly at Ice Station Cool.

That is quite possibly the nastiest stuff I have ever drank in my life. However, it is funny to watch other people try it for the first time!!! ;)

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I agree, DisneyBen....



IT IS NASTY!!!!


:scared: :scared: :scared:


HAPPY VD, EVERYONE!!! :love: :love: :love:

[gometros]

WHo do I complain to? My mother's name is Beverly and she isn't nasty! :mad:

[MickeyBabe]

:rotfl:

It's from Italy Sandy... I don't know :confused3

The Pope maybe?

:p

[Higgs22]

DBen got it--that nasty stuff can be found at Ice Station Cool...

[MonorailDude]

BUMP! Who has the next question!!!!!!!

[DisneyBen]

I'll throw out a question:

The entire tank at the Living Seas holds about how many gallons of water?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Ok, DBen...I'll take a stab...


Over 6 million gallons........
:teacher: :cool1: :wave2:

[plutospup]

How about 5.7 million gallons of saltwater!

[Higgs22]

I think it's lower--I'll say 3 million gallons

[debbiedoo]

5,700,000 gallons of water.

[DisneyBen]

Plutospup, you got the correct answer first. A soggy AAQ card to you!!!

:teeth:

[plutospup]

The green roofed pavilion located on waters edge between Cinderella Castle and Tomorrowland was the dock for what MK ride?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

The Swan Boats???


:confused3 :boat: :confused3

Ya'll have a magical Saturday!

[tink85]

Sounds about right to me! I'll second that guess

[plutospup]

Happy sailing wdwtheplacetobe! The "Swan Boats" is correct. You have the next question!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

thanks much, plutospup!!!!

Here's an easy one....(keeping with water, water, everywhere)

What year was the first plunge taken into the briar patch????



:umbrella: :umbrella: :umbrella:

[debbiedoo]

opened in 1992

[Higgs22]

Just to bump this up---I'll say 1993
(but I do think it was 1992)

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Debbiedoo---It WAS 1992....

A wet, way back when AAQ to you! Sorry it took me so long to get back!

:flower: :flower: :flower:

[debbiedoo]

Since we are into the wet trivia here's a good one:


In 20,000 leagues under the sea, what is the name of the ship that is destroyed as the film opens?

[plutospup]

Hmmmm.....was it the Governor Higginson?...or the USS Abraham Lincoln? Now that 20K Leagues at WDW is covered with dirt we may never know!

[debbiedoo]

nope. . . .try again. . .

[Mamajules]

Relatively new DISer and new to this thread, but thought I'd have some fun with trivia. Is it the Golden Arrow?

[MickeyBabe]

Hi debbiedoo, Welcome to the Parks Game. :wave2:

... could it be the "Black Pearl"? ;)

Just a couple of notes....

To remain here on the "Theme Parks and Attractions Strategies" boards, the posts we make on the Parks Game must all be questions and answers relating directly to WDW Parks. As long as we do this the moderators here graciously allow us to remain here.

We also like to bold the Question so that the open question is easily found.

Thanks and nice to have you here at the Parks Game. We love it when new people come to play. ::yes::

:teeth:

[Higgs22]

I'll try that question...Is it the Jolly Roger?

[Granny]

How about The Columbus? The Shannon? The Helvetia? The Moravian? The Scotia? Those are the only ones I can recall! :confused3

[debbiedoo]

I guess I should asked another question Mickeybabe?? It is to the movie--let me know!!

[debbiedoo]

Relatively new DISer and new to this thread, but thought I'd have some fun with trivia. Is it the Golden Arrow?

You are correct!! a AAQ to you :wave2:

Sorry I overlooked this--I got tied up with whether or not I need to ask a new question--will remember in the WDW parks :wave2:

[MickeyBabe]

No problem Debbiedoo. I'm sure the mods won't demote us for a stray question from a newcomer. ;)

I see you have awarded your AAQ card to Mamajules. ::yes::

I'm looking forward to the next question.

:teeth:

[Mamajules]

Thanks debbiedoo - can't believe I got it right! Anyway, here goes -

How many attractions were there when WDW opened in 1971?

Good luck all!

[Higgs22]

[Mamajules]

Welcome to the game gymbomom! Nope, its not 21, but you were quite close.

[MouseClubMom]

MCMom

[Mamajules]

Long Time No SEE CCers!! :wave:

I'll guess there were 22 attractions in 1971 when the MK opened!


MCMom


Way to go MouseClubMom, you are correct! 22 attractions when WDW first opened. AAQ to you.

[Gymbomom]

bump, what is the next question???

[MonorailDude]

A BIG BUMP! Come on guys. Disney World is asking for a question. ::yes::

[MickeyBabe]

MonorailDude.... You know, you could ask a question instead of bumping, I'm sure you have an old dusty AAQ card there somewhere. :rolleyes:


What type of transportation is available at the TTC to take you to the MK?

:3dglasses

[peter pan217]

the monorail

[gometros]

and the ferry

[MickeyBabe]

peter pan217... You are correct and Welcome to the Game!!! http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Bungalow/8227/variety/misc/ani-mono.gif

Sandy the ferry is also correct/ :boat:

AAQ (Ask A Question) cards to Peter pan and Sandy. ::yes::


:wave2:

[peter pan217]

thanks here is the question

WHAT WAS WALT DISNEY'S FAVORITE ATTRACTION

sorry i couldn't put it in print

[MickeyBabe]

Peter Pan... to bold your question, when posting, just click on the B at the apper left corner of your blank writing space. A pop up box comes up. Type your question there and click [ok]. It is as easy as that.



WHAT WAS WALT DISNEY'S FAVORITE ATTRACTION?



I would guess the WDW Railroad.




(Psstttt.... The questions here must pertain to Walt Disney World attractions only so that we may remain on the WDW Theme Parks and Attractions Strategies boards)

:wave2:

[LindaD]

I would say the Carousel of Progress!

[peter pan217]

thanks mickeybabe yall had good guesses but not quite

[plutospup]

Was it "It's A Small World"? Can't you just hear the music!

[peter pan217]

not quite good guess

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Shotgun time.....

Dumbo, the Haunted Mansion, Or Pirates of the Carribean????


:earboy2: :scared1: pirate:

[JamesD]

Now I know why you answered with a WDW attraction, MBabe?
The answer has to be at Disneyland, since Walt never lived to see WDW!
The answer is the Enchanted Tiki Room.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

James---Weren't the Plans made BEFORE the opening??? Both Carousel of Progress and IASW were at the NY World's Fair in 1964....I saw them first there---and altho young, became Disneyfied then....

:confused3 :cool1: :confused3

But, still....am Not sure of this answer????

I guess we'll have to wait for the ruling....

Ya'll have a magical night/day!!!!

[MickeyBabe]

Yes James, you do! ;)

(I also would go with the Enchanted Tiki room as Walt's favorite DL attraction)

wdwtptb... Yes the plans were made before WDW was opened, but the atttractions themselves were opened in DL first also. From there, Walt had a favorite attraction, but it really was a Disneyland attraction at the time.

Since it relates back to the copy at WDW, I'm hoping the semantics police and mods look the other way. ;)

[peter pan217]

wdwtheplacetobe aaq you walt's favorite was pirates of the carribean

[JamesD]

wdwtheplacetobe aaq you walt's favorite was pirates of the carribean
I beg to differ with you!
http://www.justdisney.com/Features/Tiki_Room/Tiki_Room.html
I interact with someone on Tuesday nights that was close to the Disney family. I'll ask him for his opinion tonight.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

What's the scoop, James??????


pirate: pirate: pirate: or :flower: :flower: :flower:


In the end, :grouphug: --we ALL LOVE DISNEY !!!!!

:love: :love: :love:

[peter pan217]

ok then what you think

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I have no idea....I was guessing.......

just for curiousity..........what is your source peterpan????


:confused3 :confused3 :confused3

[MickeyBabe]

peter pan.... No worries. :)

Over the years, we have found that you can often find conflicting sources, especially on the net. :teacher: This is why the PG pretty much runs under the unwritten rule of "Your question, your answer" ::yes::

Since you awarded the AAQ to wdwtptb, they can now ask a question.

If wdwtptb is not ready with one, James can ask one until they are since I am sure he has plenty of AAQ cards lying around himself, he is pretty knowlegable. :teeth:

:3dglasses

[peter pan217]

well some friends told me about it that they saw it in a tv program i will contact my friend and ask what show

[AKQJ10]

Wait, wasn't it Stitch's Great Esca... oh wait... that's NO ONE's favorite attraction.

;)

[MonorailDude]

FINE! I'll ask one. (I think you know who is reading this.;)) I just don't like coming up with them. I"M SO LAZY! :p

Where did the Imagineers left their mark on Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin

[peter pan217]

on the battery he or she put were there from

[MonorailDude]

Correct-o-mundo.

A charged up AAQ Card to Peter Pan217.

[peter pan217]

thanks on the tta when they page tom morrow

what other ride is tom morrow in hint: the place were tom morrow is is not there but the ride is

[Gymbomom]

what other ride is tom morrow in hint: the place were tom morrow is is not there but the ride is

So I guess you are not looking for the TTA...
I am stumped because I would think it was the TTA.....
hmmmm....
My next guess would be, The Carousel of Progress???

[MickeyBabe]

Your hint is a bit confusing so I'll cover all of my bases....

* Tom Morrow was originally present as the Director of Operations in Mission Control for the Flight to the Moon.

* Alien Encounter, paid tribute to the former attraction in the queue area, where an upcoming lecture at the Tomorrowland Interplanetary Convention Center was entitled, "Mission to Mars: History or Hoax?" given by "Tom Morrow."

* As you mentioned Tom Morrow is paged on the TTA, he is also paged in the Star Tours queue at MGM.

* Finally the miniature robot Tom Morrow 2.0 is your technoguide to the future along "Innoventions: The Road to Tomorrow" in EPCOT.

:3dglasses

[Gymbomom]

LOL at Mickey Babe...
I felt the same way.... hopefully it is one of those. I know over in Carousel of Progress, you can hear the paging outside, but I guess he wouldn't be considered in the ride.

[peter pan217]

that is not what im looking for i'll give you another hint the answer is on www.hiddenmickeys.com sorry if i confused yall i am only 12

[marypops!]

ok im looking on this website
i searched the site and it said sorry there are no search results for Tom Morrow
so im checking the hard way
P.S im 12 too but im turning 13 in 7 days (from today which is Friday 4th March)

:)

[Gymbomom]

[peter pan217]

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I have a 2 part train question....

How long is the track at WDW RR ? And.. What did the trains haul when the Disney people found them in Mexico?

:moped: :moped: :moped:

:wizard: :wizard: :wizard:

[plutospup]

The track circling the park is 1.5 miles, and the trains I believe carried produce :banana: from the plantations on the Yucatan peninsula of Mexico.

[Gymbomom]

The trains were bought from the Yucatan Uniterd Railways in 1969 were they hauled passengers and freight in the Yucatan. :earsboy:
I have read the track is around a mile and a half. BUT, I am not sure if that is the correct anwser.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

CHOO-CHOO AAQ!!!! (TO PLUTO, FIRST) FOR A BONUS, BE MORE SPECIFIC...WHAT KIND OF PRODUCE??????


:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:


*note---trains were TAKEN to Mexico to haul freight/passengers---
BUT what were they hauling WHEN the Disney folks found them to retrieve????

[plutospup]

Dancing bannanas? :banana:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I'll give a hint---we don't think of it as "normal" produce and has an "Imperial" quality....


:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

*C'mon ya'll (in Texas)....you KNOW this one!

[plutospup]

Well...according to www.tramz.com the Yucatan United Railways often transported "henequen crop" from the plantations. On the other hand "Imperial quality" sounds like oil.

[Gymbomom]

Sugar??

[wdwtheplacetobe]

to be exact, according to Birnbaum's..........SUGARCANE!

AAQ to a fellow Texan....Gymbomom!!!!

*note---Imperial Sugar was manufactured from sugarcane in Sugarland, Texas---just South of Houston!

:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

:badpc: :badpc: :badpc: (I'm kind of a technophobe---still read BOOKS)

[Gymbomom]

Pinocchio Village Haus has SEVEN themed rooms, what are their names????
:earsboy: :earsboy: :earsboy:

[AKQJ10]

Seven, huh....

Sneezy, Sleepy, Dopey, Silly, Nutty... oh wait... wrong cartoon.;)

How about Blue Fairy, Cleo, Figaro, Jiminy Cricket, Monstro, Stromboli, and Gepetto's Workshop?

[Gymbomom]

Hey Lou! Way to go! :banana:
An AAQ to you for the right anwser. :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc
By the way, your website doesn't have Figaro on that information.

[AKQJ10]

Mom,

Thanks for pointing out the omission on the site. :)

Hmmm... a question, huh? OK:

What was the first pavilion in Future World to have a Kidcot Fun Stop?

[peter pan217]

france

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Germany...just to be different....


BTW...the Great Escape should disappear!!!!! very lame!!!!

:Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc

[plutospup]

Mexico

[JamesD]

Future World, guys!
Now, where have I heard that question before? :badpc:
Oh yeah, that's where!
It's Test Track.

[plutospup]

My daughter needs to teach me to read! :crazy: Anyway...the first Kidcot Fun Stop was in...The Land.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Duh???? That's what I get for working the weekend and skimming the boards.

How about The Living Seas???

No kids for kidcot, so don't really know.

:confused3 :boat: :confused3

[AKQJ10]

James: impressive as usual, my friend!!

A fun, speedy-but-not-worth-two-hours-in-line AAQ card to you! :)

[peter pan217]

someone ask a question please

[MonorailDude]

BUMP!!! Sorry. I would post a question. But I'm going to be busy. It's my birthday! :teeth:

ETA: Whoops. Didn't think we would both post there. :rolleyes:

[peter pan217]

james do you want to ask a question

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Ok, PeterPan, I'll use an old AAQ for an easy question....


Where (in the four theme Parks) can you find a church?

:angel: :angel: :angel:

[AKQJ10]

Just to keep things moving along:

Epcot:
Norway (Stave Church)
China (Temple of Heaven) - does that count? ;)

MGM:
The Great Movie Ride ("I'll see you alls in Choich" - spoken by the gangster CM in the Great Movie Ride. A stretch, I know, but I'm trying to be thorough). :)

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I was thinking of the Norwegian Stave Church.....


A heavenly AAQ to you, Ace!!!



:angel: :angel: :angel:

[AKQJ10]

Thanks...

Where in WDW can you find Cousin Al?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

in the country bear jamboree in MK????

[AKQJ10]

Nope, that's not the Al I'm looking for :)

That's BIG Al

"There was.....
blooooooooooooood on the saddle.....
blooooood all arouuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnd..."

[MrsT]

Thanks...

Where in WDW can you find Cousin Al?

I'm a vegatarian. It's on the menu at Whispering Canyon Cafe. It's a pasta item.

[peter pan217]

the carousel of progress i don't know good question

[AKQJ10]

Mrs. T... that's a good answer in that there IS a "Cousin Al" vegetarian pasta.... however, since this the "Parks Game", this Cousin Al must be found within one of the 4 WDW theme parks.

Nice one, though! :)

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Cousin Al is a singing bust in the Haunted Mansion!!!!


:cheer2: :wizard: :cheer2:

[AKQJ10]

You got it, WDW!!! :)

A "bust-y" AAQ card to you!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Thanks for the AAQ!

That's all I got... I ain't got no more!
:umbrella:

[plutospup]

Isn't there something at MGM near Indiana Jones where if you pull on a rope, or open a box, something special (think wet!) will happen? ...or was that somewhere else at MGM?

[plutospup]

Voyage of the Little Mermaid. When you go under the sea, the misters come on!

...and at one point on Big Thunder Mt when you're inside the mountain, water drips on you (I still remember 20 yrs ago when Mom complained about getting new hairdo wet!)

[Mykelogan]

Isn't there something at MGM near Indiana Jones where if you pull on a rope, or open a box, something special (think wet!) will happen? ...or was that somewhere else at MGM?

[MrsT]

This was in Animal Kingdom along the side of a walk path near Kali River entrance. I would have named it if it had a name.
http://www.01files.com/images/1576547164AK1.jpg

[wdwtheplacetobe]

One of ya'll is UP!!!!!

:umbrella: :umbrella: :umbrella: :umbrella:

[MrsT]

What is the name given to the CM who grabs Aerosmiths "black Les Paul" for them when they leave?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I'll take a big Guess....SALLY?

:cool1: :confused3 :cool1:

[peter pan217]

im thinking paul im not sure though :earsboy:

[MrsT]

Hint. The name is unisex. Whether the CM is male or female (and I've seen the part played by both) the name works. Now try.

[peter pan217]

is it alex

[MrsT]

Nope.

[marypops!]

sam???
(samuel and samantha)

[MrsT]

No, but it can be a shorter version of other names, or not. That's another hint.

[JamesD]

What is the name given to the CM who grabs Aerosmiths "black Les Paul" for them when they leave?
Have ya'll actually gone to WDW? It's Chris!
There used to be an actual cast member (male or female) in the real studio, that would react to the question. Now, that was an exciting job!

[MrsT]

Yes it is Chris. I remember because it's my name. I've seen it myself many times. AAQ to you, JamesD!

[marypops!]

aaawwwwww i was gonna put in chris when i got home from school because we are meant to get someone in our maths class/form called chris and while in tech a girl was looking around and it made me think of the new person and i remembered that chris can be CHRIStina and CHRIStipher (sp?)

oh well

[peter pan217]

ya marypops the same thing happens to me in school to when im in school i think a whole lot better daydreaming in math

[plutospup]

Your "Jungle Cruise" guide will spot amazing Amazon butterflies. He/She will tell you they range in size from...?

Anywhere from 12 inches all the way up to 1 foot!


Couldn't think of anything, so I stole this question from the trivia bot in the #disney-central irc channel on the irchighway server! :P

[Sanka]
