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

[mlcar]

OK all you veteran players - we know this.

Just check your WDW WDS handbook.

See you at the fountain, and remember to bring your long straws.

[wdwoldtimer]

I'm pretty sure it's called Cindy's Bidet.

Do any of you get the feeling that you've gone back in time?

[SpectroMagic*o*]

I dont know why I cant think of the name of the fountain! I know I know it...this is gonna bother me! :)

I get to ask a question as well, so while everyone's trying to answer the last question, I'll throw out mine too!

What is Cinderella's last name?

:wizard: :pug:

[wdwoldtimer]

I don't think Cindy's last name was ever given...but her step mother's last name was Tremaine.

Of course it could be that her name was Cinder Ella and we Americans just mangled it into one word.

[mlcar]

Great answer OT. I knew you'd come up with it. And by the way, the french translation would be Cindy's Eau du Bidet - just to be classy.

[SpectroMagic*o*]

I don't think Cindy's last name was ever given...but her step mother's last name was Tremaine.

Of course it could be that her name was Cinder Ella and we Americans just mangled it into one word.

Well, I actually read somewhere that Cinderella's last name was in fact Tramaine! :earsgirl: Good job :cool1:

You get to ask a Q now? I'm still not sure how this works, oops!

:wizard: :pug:

[ksdave]

OK, here's one to make you think a little:

Based on how the Tinman holds the ax in the Wizard of Oz scene during The Great Movie Ride, is he left-handed or right-handed?

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Right Handed? (interesting question...I'm gonna take note of that next time, I'll be in MGM in 9 days).

:wizard: :pug:

[ksdave]

Yes, Spectro gets it "right".
(Just love those 50-50 questions, they go quick :) ).

Next?

[wdwoldtimer]

Along those lines...

In which hand does Mary Poppins hold her carpet bag?

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Her left hand?

:wizard: :pug:

[Princess Mindy]

I'm pretty sure it's called Cindy's Bidet.

Do any of you get the feeling that you've gone back in time?

Not quite..but really good try. You're on the right track with the words not being English...

Any other guesses? :confused3

The question again is:
What is the official name of the fountain in back of Cinderella's Castle?

[amandadaddy]

I thought her umbrella was in her left hand and her bag was in her right hand.


:earsboy:

[DisneyJen]

ADaddy I agree ... as you enter that scene Mary Poppins in on your right with her umbrella in the left hand and her bag in the right. Maybe we should all virtually ride GMR :goodvibes

[amandadaddy]

Good idea Jen! Mouse House Radio is playing alot of Disney Studios tunes this afternoon, so I'm up for a trip on the GMR!

....."One Man's Dream.....laaa,laaa, laa,la,laaa,la,laa,laaa"....... :rolleyes1

....they paid how much for the witch?!?!?!?


:earsboy:

[wdwoldtimer]

That's almost right. Mary Poppins is holding her bag with her right hand. In her left she's holding machete, not an umbrella.

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Who is the "Master" of the Haunted Mansion?

:wizard: :pug:

[DisneyJen]

OT that must have been added during a rehab ... we haven't ridden GMR in a while :rotfl:

Would that be Master Gracie?

[amandadaddy]

How about Master Gracy instead?

:earsboy:

[plutospup]

...say goodnight (Master) Gracie!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Our "Ghost Host"....don't we ALL have the elevator spiel memorized....It's SO fun to be there when EVERYBODY knows the words!!!!


:scared1: :scared1: :scared1: :scared1:

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Sorry, I was away for a while, but yes...Plutospup, AmandaDaddy, and DisneyJen all got it right... Master Gracey is the answer! very impressive! :earsgirl:

:wizard: :pug:

[plutospup]

The music "Nitrogen Boogie" can be heard outside of what attraction?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Hmmmmmm.....Rock-n-Roller Coaster????


:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[SpectroMagic*o*]

I'll say either Test Track or Autopia

:wizard: :pug:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Here's a nice and easy one while we wait for plutospup....

Where are the two places that you can smell something burning???

:bounce: :Pinkbounc :bounce:

*wow, Spectro---Looks like APRIL is your month!*

[Horizons16]

Spaceship earth and when we wake up and my sister blow drys her hair... :teeth:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Pretty good, Horizons---there's one more place IN the four Parks!!!!

:rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:


*BONUS---What is burning????*

[Horizons16]

hmm Welp I cant think of the second place but Rome is burning in Spaceship Earth

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Well...You get a Hail, Ceasar AAQ for that one...but I'm sure you KNOW the other...want a hint???


:confused3 :banana: :confused3

*Do a virtual tour and I'll check on your prgoress in the morning!

[Horizons16]

nope not yet :)

[ksdave]

Is the second place Ellen's Energy Adventure? I seem to remember a burning smell in the dino area.

[Mykelogan]

Is the second in Pirates of the Carribean? In one of the village scenes.

Mike :goodvibes

[mlcar]

I don't think we've answered that one yet.

It's a non-English answer that's not Eau du Bidet. Wow, that doesn't leave much, does it. All that French I learned in charm school is really paying off now.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Nope---not Pirates or UE.....This SMELL is very prominent!

I don't have any idea about the fountain.... :confused3

:earsgirl: :earsgirl: :earsgirl:

[amandadaddy]

The second place where you can smell burning is on Kali River.

Don't know the name of the fountain.....yet.


Good Morning All!


:earsboy:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

A soaking wet AAQ to you, Adaddy----What is "burning"?


:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[amandadaddy]

The rain forest is what's burning amidst the sound chain saws and such......

I'm going to cry U-N-C-L-E on the proper name for Cinderella's fountain. I can't find it called by any other name, but I can tell you all sorts of things that I never knew about it and recount stories of multiple marriage proposals by guys a hell of alot more romantic than me that took place in front of it. :teeth:

I'll toss one out:

According to Horizon's, what's the nice thing about traveling to the future?

:earsboy:

[wdwoldtimer]

The nice thing is it's just beginning.

What was the original name of the Enchanted Tiki Room?

[mlcar]

Iago and Zasu's Excellent Adventure, or it was sometime know by it's more boring name, Tropical Serenade

And who is the sponsor?

[wdwoldtimer]

The sponsor was the Florida Citrus Growers in conjunction with Sam Pak of Appliance Direct...."I LOVE appliances!"

[SpectroMagic*o*]

You mean the Tropical Serenade sponsor? That was the Florida Citrus Growers (I think I have that right?). :earsgirl:

:wizard: :pug:

[amandadaddy]

OT nailed it! ..."The journey is just begining"....

An orange aroma AAQ card to you sir!

:earsboy:

[mlcar]

OT - that's two correct answers for you (and I believe one for me).

I'm still stuck on the fountain name. How about Font du Cinderella?

[DisneyFreq]

I recall a less romantic story associated with that fountain on the "most shocking" thread....someone washing their dentures in it....or was it someone drinking from it? they all start to blend together....

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Ooh, I got it right, too, yeah!...okay, so I'm gonna ask a question cuz noone's asked one yet

What's the name of the firehouse on Main Street?

:wizard: :pug:

[DisneyFreq]

well duh, its a drinking fountain so now I feel stupid. I can't find a name for it other than "Cinderella's fountain". I found an associated question: At Cinderella's Fountain, Cinderella greets six of her animal friends but which one is different than the other five?

Now, its been years since I've been....don't think I've ever seen this fountain. Is the different one like, a three legged deer named lucky or something?

[DisneyFreq]

is it engine co. 71?

[Princess Mindy]

OT - that's two correct answers for you (and I believe one for me).

I'm still stuck on the fountain name. How about Font du Cinderella?

Oh so close. Shall I give a big hint?

[SpectroMagic*o*]

yes it is Engine Co #71 (in honor of the year Magic Kingdom opened)...good job!

:wizard: :pug:

[DisneyFreq]

oK...i'll ask an easy one.

What was the name of the shop on Main Street, closed in 1995, where one could find "gags"? And for a bonus: what current store replaces it?

[Princess Mindy]

The house of Magic, now replaced by the main street athletic shop. So sad!!
:sad:
I still have a question going, so if someone wants to cash in an AAQ..

[DisneyFreq]

I know...I used to covet the giant toothbrushes and sunglasses as a kid. A magical AAQ to you!

[DisneyFreq]

Rags to Riches

[DisneyFreq]

Ok...SHEESH this was hard: most people call it the cinderella fountain but the original name for the fountain was La Fontaine de Cendrillon (fountain of Cinderella) because she was such a popular fairy tale heroine in France and inspired the disney making of "Cinderella".

[Princess Mindy]

YAY! DisneyFreq got it!!!! :banana: :cheer2:
A great big french AAQ to you!

[DisneyFreq]

What is the name of the motion picture tribute to Mickey's debut and where in the *world* can you see it?


At least I believe you can still see it.

[wdwoldtimer]

I still think it's called Cindy's Butt Wash....

[wdwtheplacetobe]

OT---I like your answer!!! :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

Disneyfreq---is that "Steamboat Willie" playing in the Town Square Expo?


:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

[wdwoldtimer]

That Mickey movie is in the pre-show to The Mickey Mouse Review in Fantasyland.

[mlcar]

mickey's revue in Fantasyland


EDIT: Sorry OT, your fleeting fingers beat me to the punch. :blush:

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Okay, here comes another question, just to keep the pace going...

What are the names of the 2 tracks in Space Mountain?

:wizard: :pug:

[Horizons16]

Alpha and Omega

[DisneyFreq]

Let me rephrase:

What is the name of the motion picture tribute to Mickey's debut and where in the *world* could you have seen it prior to its closing in 1998?

[SpectroMagic*o*]

very good Horizons! Go ahead and ask a Q! :teeth:

:wizard: :pug:

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Let me rephrase:

What is the name of the motion picture tribute to Mickey's debut and where in the *world* could you have seen it prior to its closing in 1998?

Was it in the Animation Courtyard in MGM (sorry, I dont think I know the name of the tribute)?

:wizard: :pug:

[DisneyFreq]

Nope...I'll give a hint...the location where this film was shown is now a toy store....

seems like everything there eventually becomes a tshirt shop or a toy store tho, huh?

[Horizons16]

Im not going to be around this weekend so im going to save mine for monday morning... might take a little while to answer... not sure though :)

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Oh! Was it in the Main Street Cinema? I read about this, are you talking about "Mickey's Big Break"?

:wizard: :pug:

[DisneyFreq]

Yay! Good job spectro...Mickey's Big Break....an AAQ 4U.

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Cool, thanks DisneyFreq! Okay, here's my question...

There are 2 books on the table with the lantern in the library of the Haunted Mansion...What are they? :rolleyes:

:wizard: :pug:

[DisneyFreq]

two volumes of The National Encyclopedia with one open to the "D" section where you can find "death"

[SpectroMagic*o*]

That was so funny, I like how you added the fact about the "D"...you're good!
And by the way, as if you didnt know, your answer was right...good job!

:wizard: :pug:

[DisneyFreq]

Yay...my turn...this one I find interesting:

What kind of tree is the tree used for the Swiss Family Treehouse? Hint: Latin terminology

[DisneyFreq]

...mabey I should have said "what species" although I think it will make it a dead give away.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Disneyodendron eximus--which translates "out of the ordinary Disney tree

:cool1: :dog2: :cool1:

[DisneyFreq]

Very good wdwtheplacetobe: a tree-iffic AAQ for you.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

thanks, DisneyFreq...

Let's stay on the same subject...

How Long are the "roots"? How many "branches"? How many "leaves"? (the tree of the treehouse)

:wave: :wave: :wave:

[Princess Mindy]

"roots" 42 feet
1,400 branches
300,000 "leaves"

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Go, Princess Mindy, GO!!!

right on all tree stats!!!!

AAQ!!! You're up!

:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[DisneyFreq]

hmmm.....300,000 leaves that cost $1 each in 1971...so how much money does that translate into today?

[plutospup]

The music "Nitrogen Boogie" can be heard outside of what attraction?

Nice gueses wdwtheplacetobe, and Spectro...but wrong.
Think of something more bubbly!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Hmmmmmm....Bubbly, HUH??

How about Muppet Vision, 3-D???

:confused3 :wizard: :confused3

[DisneyFreq]

The LIVING SEAS!

[plutospup]

A wet & wild AAQ to you DisneyFreq!

[Princess Mindy]

Ok I have one:
What Fantasyland attraction was first created for the 1964-65 New York World's Fair?
:cheer2:

[DisneyFreq]

I'm going to guess its a small world...

[wdwtheplacetobe]

That's EASY--'cuz I was AT the Fair in '64---It's a Small World!!!


*GOSH!!! That must mean that I'm REALLY OLD! I was only 2 at the time!*


:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[Princess Mindy]

Correct! A world of laughter and fun AAQs go out to Disneyfreq and wdwtheplacetobe!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

No matter how many times we go thru IASW....have to visit each trip...it's pretty since refurbished!

How many bricks are in The American Adventure and what state made them?

:wizard: :wizard: :wizard:

[DisneyFreq]

1971?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Good Guess, but there are a few more!

:umbrella: :umbrella: :umbrella: (since I'm in Houston)

[DisneyJen]

I think the bricks were made in Georgia and there are 7171 of them ;)

Hope you are dry in Houston wdwtptb :sunny:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Have power now, but lost it during the night for a while..Thanks!

A Southern AAQ for the state for DisneyJen....but there are still more bricks!


:cool1: :umbrella: :cool1:

[DisneyJen]

Glad to hear you are safe and sound wdwtptb :goodvibes

How about 71,000 bricks :confused3

I'm going to hold onto this Southern AAQ until we wrap the bricks up:p

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Keep going up!

You're almost there!

:banana: :banana:

*wind still blowing...but hopefully mostly done*

[ksdave]

100,000 bricks.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Just a Little Higher!!!!

:Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

[ksdave]

107,100

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Almost! One more guess and I'll give it to you!

:umbrella: :umbrella: :umbrella:

[ksdave]

Sheesh! These number questions can be tough.

110,000. And that's my final answer, Regis.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!

A brick building AAQ to you! ksdave!!!!!!!

:teacher: :teacher: :teacher:

[ksdave]

OK, here's one to keep it moving on this slow weekend:

In COP, name the family dog for each generation shown.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Rover, Fido, Spot and Goofy....


:dog2: :dog: :pug:

[ksdave]

wdwtheplacetobe, you got the first one right.

[DisneyJen]

Is there a Nana in CoP? I think one is Buddy. :dog:

[ksdave]

Welllllll, I guess I need to give an AAQ to wdwtheplacetobe as this is a trick question. The dog is named Rover in all four generations shown!! :dog2:

Next question?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I wondered why all I could remember was Rover...the other three were purely guesses!!!

:dog2: :dog2: :dog2: :dog2:

Here's an easy one to keep going....

What is the Hunchback of Notre Dame's name?

princess: princess: princess:

[Princess Mindy]

Quasimodo

[wdwtheplacetobe]

A Bell-Ringin' AAQ to you! Princess Mindy


princess: :wizard: princess: :wizard:

[Princess Mindy]

A blast from the past question for you:
Which attractions in adventureland were operational on Opening Day 1971?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

How about Swiss Family Treehouse, Jungle Cruise, Pirates Of the Caribbean....

:banana: :banana: pirate: pirate: :confused3 :confused3

[DisneyFreq]

all of wdwthepalcetobe's attractions PLUS tropical serenade

[Princess Mindy]

You guys got them-but Pirates was not ready for opening day, can you believe it?
A big adventuring AAQ out to Disney Freq and Wdwtheplacetobe!

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Thanks, Princess---Go for the next question---DisneyFreq!!!!


:Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc

[amandadaddy]

Goodmorning all! I think I'll dust off an old AAQ card to give us a new question.

Where in WDW can you find a porch with a chair/bench you can sit on?

Good luck to everyone!

:earsboy:

[mlcar]

that would be in MK, frontierland to be specific, just down from the saloon. sat there a spell in the old rocker on my last trip

[amandadaddy]

Mlcar gets one with Frontierland.


.......keep touring, there are loads more out there.

:earsboy:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

How about Aunt Polly's???

:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[Mykelogan]

Hmmm...

Tony's Town Square I believe is another.

Mike :)

[wdwtheplacetobe]

right outside the Hall of President's In Liberty Square

:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[amandadaddy]

Mykelogan hits with Tony's Town Square.

WDWthePlaceToBe gets two with Liberty Square and Aunt Polly's.


:earsboy:

[wdwoldtimer]

I think Ducklite has a rocker on her lanai....and that's so damn close to WDW, I think it should count.

[ksdave]

There always at least one rocker in the CC! :rotfl:

I think there is a rocker or swing on the porch of the farm house during the boat ride in The Land. But, I think they might get a little testy if you sat on that one.

[DisneyJen]

There are rockers on the porch at Crocket's Tavern over at Fort Wilderness ... ADaddy did say "WDW" :goodvibes

[amandadaddy]

Yeah Jen, I did say "WDW", but I still like your answer! :teeth:

Hey OT! What's that little guy under your signature doing?.....looks like he's smearing something on the screen......ohh that's just gross!.....where can I get one?......if you put tobasco sauce on his fingers he'll stop that.......

I love KS Dave's porch rocker on the Land, good one!

I have 8 more on my list, and I'm still touring the parks for more.....


:earsboy:

[ksdave]

Wow, eight more? This one is tough, Adaddy.

How about on the porch at Mickey's Country House in Mickey's Toontown Fair/Starland/Birthday Land/whatever? Or maybe Minnie's Country House?

Are there any on Tom Sawyer Island?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

ksdave---Aunt Polly's is the little snack shop on Tom Sawyer's island....It has LOTS of rocking chairs/benches as you wait for the "raft". I've only been there once---'cuz I'd never been over there before.

Adaddy---How about GMR---I think there's a rocking chair where the "train robber" sits waiting for the next tram????

From Pictures---looks like Playhouse Disney has a porch---do they have rocking chairs???

This one is hard because we hardly ever sit in Disney!

:wave2: :confused3 :wave2:

[amandadaddy]

KS Dave gets one with Toon Town.

I also do very little sitting at WDW, but looking for something you've seen but never really noticed is a great exercise for virtual park touring.

I'll try and narrow it down a bit for everyone: of the 7 remaining porches with chair/bench seating, 4 are at MK, and Epcot, AK and MGM each have 1, although the one I'm thinking of at MGM might be a bit of a stretch. .....also, I'm not counting any of the outside dinning areas ( such as Flame Tree BBQ ) so you can eliminate those.

Good Morning and Good Luck to all!

:earsboy:

[SpectroMagic*o*]

How about the sitting area outside of the restrooms by City Hall on Main St in MK?
Or what about the Swiss Family Tree House?
One last guess...the waiting area for the Mark Twain boat? :earsgirl:

:wizard: :pug:

[amandadaddy]

Spectro gets 2 of the 4 remaining in the MK with the Town Hall and the Swiss Family Ronbinson Treehouse.

.....we still have 1 in Epcot, 1 at AK, 1 (?) at MGM and 2 at the MK.

I'll recap the list in a little while.

:earsboy:

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Ok, I have a few more guesses, but I think after this I'm dry! :earsgirl:

MK: Country Bear Jamboree and The Walt Disney Railroad?
Epcot: The American Pavillion or the Japan pavillion?

:wizard: :pug:

[ksdave]

Hey, just thought of one. There are benches on the porch in front of the Liberty Tree Tavern in MK.

[amandadaddy]

Spectro - I didn't have Japan on my Epcot list,......but I think you're right, so it counts!

I don't remember any chairs or benches on the porch in front of the Country Bears.

Here's the list so far:

Town Hall.....Spectro
Toon Town.....KSDave
HoP.....WDWthePlaceToBe
Frontierland (close to the tavern).....Mlcar
Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse.....Spectro
Aunt Polly's.....WDWthePlaceToBe
Tony's Town Square.....Mykelogan
Japan pavillion......Spectro

Has this question slowed our beloved PGThread down, or are we just a little slow this week? If y'all wan't me to give this one up, just holler and I'll give the remaining spots up. :teeth:

:earsboy:

[amandadaddy]

KSDave snuck in there! That's absolutely correct! There are benches on the porch of the Liberty Tree Tavern, which brings the number of remaining spots in the MK down to 1!

......want a good hint?.........the last spot at the MK is a featured photograph on this web site ;) .........


:earsboy:

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Really? There arent any outside by the Main St Railroad station? Hmmm...I'll keep thinking of that last MK one...did anyone get the AK one? I dont know AK that well.

:wizard: :pug:

[amandadaddy]

There are loads of benches and such all over the MK train station,.....but that's not the right one.

The last one at the MK is not on Main Street.

....and no one has named the AK location yet.

:earsboy:

[DisneyJen]

Don't you hate when real life gets in the way of virtual Park touring?

Are there rockers at Splash Mountain?

And in AK ... are they at Tarzan Rocks :cool1:

[amandadaddy]

I agree Jen! It is very inconsiderate of real life to interfere with our day dreams!

Nice try on Splash MT. and Tarzan Rocks!, but no cigar! :teeth:

........you walked too far in both cases........ :rolleyes1


Heading home for now, but I'll check back in later.

:earsboy:

[DisneyJen]

Hmmm... Backtracking through MK ... through the hub ...

How about at the dock for the riverboat ride?

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Okay, I feel like it's in Adventureland near Pirates of the Carribean. I remember seeing this place across the way from the entrance to Pirates, I think maybe next to that El Pirata quick service place...I'm getting a 9th grade flashback. For some reason, I feel like I have a pic of myself here from the 9th grade...

And I agree, I wish there was a job where I could write on Dis Boards AAAALLLL day! I try to keep up throughout the day though! :earsgirl:

:wizard: :pug:

[plutospup]

MGM...is it at the "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" play area?

[plutospup]

AK...benches at Camp Mickey & Minnie, Pochahontas Show, Flights of Wonder, Rafikis Planet Watch, and Train Station. Wow, that was a shotgun approach! Any correct?

[amandadaddy]

Sorry Jen and Plutospup, none of those are what I was looking for.

.....further back Jen.......

Spectro, you're also in the wrong spot, but I think I might have to add your answer to my list..........across from PoC and next to El Pirata.......kind of a stucco building next to that little fence area where characters and CMs sometimes come and go from.........I can't remember any chairs or benches there, I'll have to check it out in November :teeth:

......the one I'm looking for at MGM is part of a ride,......the one at AK isn't........and we still have one to go at Epcot.

Good Morning!

:earsboy:

[Horizons16]

looked all through the posts and didnt see this one...

I think there is a rocker in the Canada queue...

[wdwtheplacetobe]

There IS a rocker on Splash Mountain---though guests can't use it....
Brer Frog rocks (in shadow) along the queue... :rolleyes1

[Horizons16]

figured i would toss an oldie out there to keep things fresh...
cash in a dusty card from last week
According to the old Mark Twain riverboat narration, what exactlly is a Mark Twain?

[amandadaddy]

Canada is a good one Steve, but the rocker/benches/chairs are not on a porch/patio setting and therefore are not the ones I'm thinking of............

WDWthePlaceToBe.......true,....but false ;) .........Jen has already established that the location of the final fronth porch seating at the MK is closer to the entrance than the dock for the riverboat ride (well....maybe it's about even) and past Main Street.......... :rolleyes1

As for Epcot, MGM, and AK; think garden, garden, and first things first.

:earsboy:

[DisneyJen]

OK ADaddy, I am walking from the riverboat dock, past the stockade and heading left ... is the Rocker in front of the shops along the path to HM on the left-hand side?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Thanks Adaddy---there IS a Beautiful Garden in the back of the UK---danced with Tigger there one time---IT HAS BENCHES to sit and rest!!!!

:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[amandadaddy]

Sorry it took me a while to get back..........

Yes Jen (more or less) that's the right one! The name of the shop is the Yankee Trader, in it you can find all sorts of cooking accessories and such. If you check this site for Yankee Trader you can see a picture that clearly shows the chairs on the porch. The shop is on your left as you exit the HM on the corner that turns toward Fantasyland approaching PP'sF and the old Skyway station.

WDWthePlaceToBe.....I love that part of the UK pavillion too! In fact, that's the one I was looking for! So many neat little gardens and such, the sounds of the British Invasion, it's a great out of the way place to enjoy a Mickey ice cream bar or a yard of ale. :goodvibes

.....can anyone guess where at Disney Studios you might find a porch/patio with chairs/benches ina garden setting?..........how 'bout first things first ( or last things last depending on your perspective ) at AK?........


:earsboy:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

adaddy--Are you perhaps thinking of the benches thruout the Oasis in AK???

:confused3 :confused3 :confused3

[amandadaddy]

Nope! These are under the roof of a porch on a traditional building..........


:earsboy:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Adaddy---rats! I'm Clueless!!!

Horizons---is it 12ft??? (enuf water for the Riverboat not to get stuck)
6ft x 2 ---1 fathom = 6ft I think---Mark Twain=2 fathoms....

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[DisneyJen]

Are there rockers in the Backlot?

Sure enjoyed my virtual stroll through MK ADaddy :wizard:

[amandadaddy]

Sorry Jen, I don't think there's even a backlot anymore, and if it were still there, I doubt that they'd allow guests to exit the tram, run up on a porch, and sit on a prop. :teeth:

............remember, think garden...........

Don't give up WDWthePlaceToBe!!!!! You can do it!!!!!! chair - porch - building - first/last - = ?

[Distriv]

I can't believe the game is still going, I haven't been here in forever!

[amandadaddy]

Good to see you Distriv!

:earsboy:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I know there's a Round Bldg Outpost---the last gift shop before leaving...I don't remember any chairs...we are usually sprinting for the Safari in the morning and dragging out to the buses when we're done at AK...

Maybe there are benches by the lockers???

:confused3 :confused3 :confused3



:wave2: :wave2: :wave2:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

How about in the Gardens outside the Hollywood Tower of Terror????


:scared1: :scared1: :scared1:

[ksdave]

Are there benches in the "park" area across from the 50's Prime Time Cafe?

Hey Distriv!

[Horizons16]

Adaddy---rats! I'm Clueless!!!

Horizons---is it 12ft??? (enuf water for the Riverboat not to get stuck)
6ft x 2 ---1 fathom = 6ft I think---Mark Twain=2 fathoms....

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Guess i was a little too wordy on that one... haha Safe water was enough.

A smooth sailin AAQ to you

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Thanks, Horizon...

Let's stay with Mark Twain for a bit...

What kinds of bridges are located on Tom Sawyer's Island????


:teeth: :teeth: :teeth:

[ksdave]

Are youlooking for rope bridges?

[Distriv]

Those would be barrel bridges.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Suspension (rope) bridge and Barrel Bridge....

So.....Swingin' AAQ for ksdave and (Beer) Barrel (Polka) AAQ for distriv!!!!


:goodvibes :goodvibes :goodvibes

[Distriv]

I'll have to cash mine in tomorrow after work. Good night everyone. :goodvibes

[amandadaddy]

WDWthePlaceToBe - Yes, there are benches on the porch of the ToT up against the short walls overlooking the gardens in the que area.

.....at AK when you come to the first fork in the road (right to Dinoland, left to Camp Minnie Mickey, run like hell straight ahead and to the left to the safari thing) there are shops on either side of you. Both have wrap around "porches", (you can a charicature done on the porch of the store to your right as you turn toward Dinoland) and on those porches are benches and chairs where guests can sit and melt! You were close enough WDWthePlaceToBe.

Here's the final rundown:

Town Hall......Spectro
Toon Town.....KSDave
HoP.....WDW
Frontierland.....Mlcar
Swiss Family Treehouse......Spectro
Yankee Trader.....DisneyJen
LT Tavern....KSDave
AuntPolly's......WDW
Tony's Town Square.....Mykelogan
ToT.....WDW
AK shops.....WDW
UK pavillion.....WDW
Japan pavillion.....Spectro

A warm and comfortable AAQ card goes to each (don't put your hands underneath, there could be gum! :teeth: ).

Good morning!

:earsboy:

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Wow, good job amandadaddy on keeping track on all those, and I especially enjoyed the trip thru the park :earsgirl: ...okay, here's my question...

What town is Main Street USA loosely based on?

:wizard: :pug:

[mlcar]

the little town in Missouri where Walt Disney grew up.

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Correct Mlcar! :earsgirl: The town is called Marceline, and it's modeled after Marceline around 1910.

:wizard: :pug:

[amandadaddy]

If you get the chance to listen to MouseHouseRadio @ live365.com you might hear a recording of Walt and Roy visiting with a large group of people in Marceline, MO. trading stories of the "good ole days" there that did soo much to shape who Walt was. It sounds like it was recorded some time in the late 50's or early 60's and is really great if you're a Walt nut like me. I usually hear it in the afternoons.

..............interesting tid bit: Main Street USA was not the only reproduction Walt did of his memories of Marceline, he also built a workshop in the backyard of his last home that was modled after the barn his parents had on their Marcline farm :goodvibes ..............

:earsboy:

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Thanks AmandaDaddy...I'm actually listening to Live 365 right now, I love Mouse House Radio, it's under my faves. I'll keep an "Ear" out! :earsgirl:

:wizard: :pug:

[amandadaddy]

Yeah, I listen to live365 throughout most of the day.....it's a good Disney fix!

.......kinda slow 'round here right now.......anyone up for some more virtual park touring?

Which rides/attractions at WDW depict bedroom scenes?

......and remember, this is Disney, so keep it clean! :teeth:

:earsboy:

[DisneyJen]

Good question ADaddy :goodvibes

Starting in MK ... CoP, Peter Pan, HM ...

[Princess Mindy]

swiss family Robinson treehouse?

[ClarabelleCowFan]

Swiss Family Treehouse, Jungle Cruise (the cots in the tent..), Spaceship Earth, Cranium Command, Imagination

[metsfan11]

spaceship earth, swiss family robinson, maybe tom sawer on boat ride in mk?

[SpectroMagic*o*]

Well, I dont know if these count as attractions, but Mickeys house, Minnie's house, and Donald's boat?

:wizard: :pug:

[ksdave]

The Wizard of Oz scene in The Great Movie Ride shows Dorothy's house that falls on the Wicked Witch, and she was in the bedroom when the house fell, so the bedroom must be the room facing you in the scene (is that a stretch or what).

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Pretty Stretchy, Dave...but I like it!!!

In the same avenue---aren't there bedrooms behind the doors in ToT???

:Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Snow White's Scary Adventures

Journey Into Imagination

:banana: :banana: :banana:

[amandadaddy]

Lot's of correct answers folks! Here are the ones I saw so far:

KSDave....GMR (yes, you can see the bedroom)
Jen.....CoP, PPsF (I don't remember a bedroom on the HM)
WDW.....SWSA
Mindy.....Swiss Family Treehouse
ClarabellCowFan.....SSE, JIYI, JC, CraniumCommand
Spectro.....Toon Town

.......I've only got one more on my list, but usually with these kind of questions someone points out one I hadn't thought of, so there could be more....

Good Morning All!

:earsboy:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

:confused3 :Pinkbounc :confused3

Is there a Poacher's camp on Kilimanjaro Safari????

There IS a village, complete with teepees, on the WDW RR near Frontierland.

[Horizons16]

Winnie the Pooh... that dream sequence when its raining... it starts in his bedroom...

i think...

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Right before the Heffalumps....I'll second Horizon on that one!

[amandadaddy]

See what I mean! .....I hadn't even thought of Pooh,......but Steve is right.

Yes WDW, there is a complete village scene on the WDW RR,.....but you can't see a bedroom, so it doesn't count.........sorry!

........there's still one more to go folks!........well,....maybe more.


:earsboy:

[Horizons16]

im sticking my neck out on this one... ha :)

Brer Frog in the qeue for Splash Mountain is in his bedroom... I BELIEVE...
i hope thats what you were looking for, if not and you count it... im sorry haha :teeth: :goodvibes

[wdwtheplacetobe]

I've got it!!!

In the House of Innoventions! Epcot Innoventions EAST

:sunny: :Pinkbounc :sunny:

[plutospup]

Mission Space...in the giant wheel thing in the que.

[amandadaddy]

This is great! You guys are forcing me to tour the parks more attentively than I had before!...........Thanks. :teeth:

Brer Frog on Splash Mountain, Innoventions East, and that big wheel thing-a-ma-bob on Mission Space are all correct!!!!!!!!............but none were on my list. :confused3 !!!!!!

I still have one more bedroom at WDW on my list........for all I know there's another dozen I've forgotten........wait a minute,.....I just thought of another....make that 2 more to go........at least 2...........

:earsboy:

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Ellen falls asleep and goes into a Dream Sequence in UE---does that count?

[amandadaddy]

Sorry WDW,.....but nope!



.............................................but you're in the right park.............


Good Morning All!


:earsboy:

[ksdave]

How about the farmhouse during the boatride in The Land?

[gometros]

Sandy stumbles into the Chalk Circle after a long absence.

Didn't either World of Motion or Horizons have a bedroom scene in it?

WHAT??? I missed the celebration. Sorry, but I hate it when things like work get in the way of visiting the DIS.

[ksdave]

Welcome back, Sandy!!

I know Horizons had a bedroom scene. Unfortunately, I think Adaddy is only looking for current attractions (although, if they are truly removing the Human Body attraction, that would be a great place for Horizons Part 2!).

[Horizons16]

it should be called

HORIZONS: The Resurection
there is will be giant pheonex in the back of the title rising up from the ashes... its going to be sweet... haha :)
Could only hope right?

But to keep things moving...

Ugh i have racked my brain... El Tiempo del Rio... River of time in mexico...

going to get some Advil :moped:

[amandadaddy]

Darn pesky work!.....keeping me away from the DIS..........

It is appropriate that KS Dave would get the last bedroom on my list,.....'cause he reminded me of it in a previous question. The 2nd floor bedroom of the farm house on the Land visible from the boat and from the Garden Grill is correct!

AAQ cards go out to KSDave, Disney Jen, WDWthePlaceToBe, Mindy, Horizons (Steve), Spectro, Pluto's Pup and ClaraBellCow.

Congrats to all!!!


...............I'll second a Horizons resurrection.....that would be welcomed.


:earsboy:

[ksdave]

OK, here's a softball to keep us going:

What is the name of the song at the end of the show in the American Pavillion? And what is the name of the group that sings in the pre-show?

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Is it "America, the Beautiful" and the Voices of Liberty???


:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

:grouphug:

[Mickey_Maniac]

I'm not real sure of the title, but I'll guess "Golden Dream". I can hear it so clear in my head...

America, spread your golden wings
Sail on freedom's wind, across the sky.
Great bird, with your golden dreams
flying high, flying high.

[plutospup]

I can hear the song, too! However, I'm not sure of the name. In the preshow along with the Voices of Liberty, isn't there another group called "American Vybe"?


...in the meantime..."America, you must keep dreaming, now..."

[ksdave]

wdw, you got the group.

Mickey_maniac, you got the song. (The version they play now is actually the second one. The first was replaced about 10 years ago with an updated version).

AAQ's to wdw and M_m!!

[amandadaddy]

How 'bout another softball?.........

Which rides at WDW move in circles?


............bump!..........

:earsboy:

[Mickey_Maniac]

AAQ's to wdw and M_m!!
Sorry, new to this thread. What are AAQ's?

[Mickey_Maniac]

How 'bout another softball?.........

Which rides at WDW move in circles?

If you are talking about a true circle, how about CoP, Cinderella's Golden Carousel, Dumbo, Alladin, Triceratops Spin, Astro Orbiter, Mad Tea Party

Thats about all I can think of now...

[amandadaddy]

Nice shot Mickey Maniac!

All 7 of those are correct..............and I've still got 2 more on my list......

AAQ card = ask a question card. It's a rule for this thread to keep the number of open questions at any one time to a minimum. As you answer questions correctly, the player asking the question awards an AAQ card to you and you have the floor for the next question.

:earsboy:

[Princess Mindy]

doesn't primevil whirl go in a circle?

[Mickey_Maniac]

amandadaddy,
The only other two I can think of are the WDW Railroad (although its a bit of a stretch since it isn't a true circle), and Mission:Space (after all it does spin around...)

Were those the ones?

[Mickey_Maniac]

Using my AAQ from the American Adventure question, here you go...

Which rides or attractions at WDW have a dog in them?

[ksdave]

Dogs in Peter Pan's Flight, CoP, Space Mountain, Muppetvision 3D, Honey I Shrunk the Audience, (Horizons), (World of Motion), Haunted Mansion.

[mlcar]

there's a dog in Pirates of the Carribean

[AKQJ10]

I believe there's also a dog on the Liberty Square Riverboat, as you pass by one of the fisherman's shacks

[amandadaddy]

That's a clean sweep by Mickey_Maniac folks! Mission Space was the last on my list of rides that move in circles.

..........I would have said SSE before the WDW RR cause it's a spiral circle, but what the hey................

A very dizzy going no where AAQ card goes out to Mickey_Maniac!

.....no dogs on Splash Mnt or BTMRR?........I'll add Toto on the GMR.....how 'bout a representation of Cinderella's dog who becomes the coachman at the castle or on the carousel?.............maybe some sort of alien dog on Star Tours..........does Stitch count as a dog?.......I know I've seen little plastic dogs in the train set-up in the German pavillion at the WS......that's all for now.

Good morning all!


:earsboy:

[amandadaddy]

BUMP!......BUMP!.....BUMP!


:earsboy:

[Mickey_Maniac]

Sorry folks, just got home from a long day...

ksdave got several of them, as did amandadaddy (no, Stitch does NOT count as a dog!!!), mlcar got another one, and I didnt even know about the one AKQJ10 spotted on the Riverboat cruise.

I know of at least 2 more definites, as well as a few more possibles

Keep Trying

[Mickey_Maniac]

Bump, lets keep this thread going...

[jwill]

Isn't there a dog in the farm scene of The Land?

[amandadaddy]

Mas perros eh?!?!?!?

.........let's try VOTLM and the Playhouse Disney Live stuff...........what about the Italian food joint at MK based on the Bella Noche scene from Lady and the Tramp, there's probably a dog or two in there................are there any dogs at the Main Street Firehouse?.........do Heyienas count as dogs?.............

Good Morning All!


:earsboy:

[Mickey_Maniac]

jwill and amandadaddy got my last 2 definites (VOTLM and LWTL). The other possibles that I had were SSE (gotta be a dog somewhere in there) and M:S (wasn't there a dog in the first family in space?)

Good Job to all. A barking AAQ to ksdave and amandadaddy for getting the most.

[Princess Mindy]

to keep this thread going I will cash in my AAQ:

Who supplied the synthesized voice for the Main Street Electrical Parade from 1979 to 1991?

:Pinkbounc :rotfl: :banana:

[amandadaddy]

Well, I'm pretty sure this one's been out there before, but I'm not certain so here it goes:

Which rides end where they start (you can see the load from the exit)?

I actually have another question that's better....tasting...you know how you can get those Churro sticks, Funnel cakes, and those awesome Almonds at Epcot in the WS..........can you find those sort of things anywhere else?

......just wondering.........I think I just gained a pound or two....... :teeth:


:earsboy:

[Mickey_Maniac]

Which rides end where they start (you can see the load from the exit)?

Lets see... Moving Clockwise around the MK... Aladdin, JC, BTMRR, SplMtn, Riverboat, IASW, Peter Pan, Snow White, Pooh, Barnstormer, Speedway, CoP (kinda)

Epcot... TT, Universe of Energy, M:S (kinda), LWTL

Studios... Surprisingly, I dont think there are any!!!

AK... Kali (not sure), Dinosaur, Triceratops Spin, Primiveil Whirl (sp?)

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Don't forget the Wedway People Mover (aka tomorrowland transit authority)!

:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

[MickeyBabe]

:wave2: Couldn't resist, I'll add....

MK... WDWRR, Main Street Vehicles, Astro Orbiter, Cinderella's Golden Carrousel, Dumbo, Mad Tea Party

Epcot... Soarin', Maelstrom

MGM... Great Movie Ride

That'd be the correct answer!

[ksdave]

Sorry I haven't cashed in my AAQ's lately. Another business trip has me tied up.
Here's one to keep us going:

In The Great Movie Ride, which musical scene is displayed from Mary Poppins?

If I can't get back in time to verify the answer, somebody keep it going with another question.

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Chim-Chim Cheree!!!

:Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc
