Marathon Weekend 2018

[Simba's Girl]

Happy Sunday everyone! Another week closer to Marathon Weekend 2018.

Today's Disney question:

Who is your favorite Disney character and why?

Well I'd have to say Donald Duck is my favorite. I'm not really sure why but from a young age I've always liked him because he's stubborn which I tend to be.

Phinneas and Ferb...because we all *love* summer vacation!

Happy Sunday everyone! Another week closer to Marathon Weekend 2018.

Today's Disney question:

Who is your favorite Disney character and why?

Goofy, because he is tall (which I am not) and silly like me.

 

[OldSlowGoofyGuy]

Big Al, because I got a mug with his picture on it when I was 8 and can never seem to let it go.

'There was blood on the saddle!'

My favorite Disney memories include Country Bear Jamboree with my parents and exiting into the little restaurant (which I guess evolved in Pecos Bill's) and having little cardboard cups of chili.

 

[Baloo in MI]

Today's Disney Question: Well it is no question for me. It is all about Baloo. Loved him as a kid and I still do.

Though I do have to say I have really liked the direction of the newer "princesses" like Tiana, Merida and Moana with their independence and strength. As the father of two girls got to give high second place votes to them!

 

[Sailormoon2]

Maleficent would have to be my favourite if we go by the entire shelf I have dedicted to her memorabilia. But I love "meeting" Donald, he's always the best.

 

[FelisLachesis]

I'm going with Donald Duck. As frustrated and irritated as he gets (and I get), somehow, we both figure it out at the end.

Oh, and we're not wearing any pants.

Big Al =

Roll Tide!!!

Big Al =

Roll Tide!!!

Nope I don't like that big Al. My big Al plays the guitar.

 

[baxter24]

Mickey Mouse is my favorite! Last time we were at the Magic Kingdom, we took our boys to meet the talking Mickey on Main Street. My husband said that I stood there with my mouth open with a silly grin in my face while he talked to my boys.

Good luck! Still waiting and hoping our Poly studio comes through.

Are there studios available just no one selling points?

Today's Disney question:

Maleficent!

 

[ZellyB]

Are there studios available just no one selling points?

There were studios available when we put in the request, so yeah just no one with Polynesian points I guess wanting to sell.

 

[SheHulk]

Big Hero 6 is Disney right? Then Baymax is my favorite Disney character. He's gentle, selfless, and sweet.
Dug from Up is my favorite Pixar character. I love dogs and Dug just exemplifies everything good about them.

 

[michigandergirl]

So hard to choose, but I'm going to have to say Woody and Buzz.

 

[mbwhitti]

It's a hard choice between Aladdin and Cinderella. Those are the two movies that were my favorite as a child.

 

[ChipNDale86]

Chip n Dale are clearly the best characters of all time!!!

Hamm is my last name so I also love Hamm from Toy Story. Wall-E, Pascal, & Figaro are a few other favorites of mine.

 

[CherieFran]

My favorite Disney character is Wall-E. He just makes me happy.

Belle is my favorite princess - loves books, which is totally me

But I also love Winnie the Pooh a lot - I have to go on the ride at least once every trip, and meeting Pooh has been the longest line I've stood in for anything for most of my recent trips


Also, about the Poly studios - they are booking up fast. We have that as our home resort, and I could only get partial availability for a standard studio when I looked last night. I hadn't thought it would go that quickly, and we have a placeholder trip booked in October that I didn't want to give up quite yet, so I was waiting. Looks like I was wrong on that, so we're trying to figure out if my in-laws have enough points to book us a SSR room and us book something for them later. Otherwise, we may be banking points and getting a regular room somewhere, because the lake view is really expensive!

Who is your favorite Disney character and why?

Dumbo! I have no idea why, but elephants are my favorite animal too. So glad I got the Dumbo Double Dare medal in 2015 since they dropped the Dumbo part.
