Bunnies and mooses and groupies, Oh my!!! The Wilderness Lodge groupies thread. 4.0

I was the first night time fireworks shown at Hollywood Studios waay back when it was called "Disney-MGM studios". I had a fantastic 55 foot inflatable Mickey Mouse with fireworks shooting out of fingers.

Who am I and when was I running?

Ohhh - I remember that fireworks show - but am stumped on when it began running/ ended it's run. Wasn't it called "Sorcery in the Sky" or something like that, playing on the old "Fantasy in the Sky" found at the MK?

You were Sorcerer Mickey (we loved that show) and not sure what you mean by when you ran, year? 1994 or so?

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter.

Also hope MA and RI are drying out. Poor New England...

 

[DVCGeek]

I remember that show as well, but not the name. Staying tuned for more...

 

[MiaSRN62]

I also remember Scorcerer in the Sky ! Good one !!!


I hope MA and RI are also drying out.

While not as bad, Philly also had it's share of flooding. We set records (for all the wrong reasons....lol) as well and I'm so thankful for the last few nice warm and DRY days ! We were prepared to build an ark towards the end of March !!!

You guys are too smart for me.

Yep, it was called "Sorcery in the Sky". It ran from 1980 to 1998 and was replaced by fantasmic.

Enjoy the sunshine all.

Wow, no posts to this thread for over 23 hours? Hope I didn't just break a record attempt...

Awwww. Cute kitty. Love the fish and the teapots in the previous post!

Is it too early to start planning for Christmas at the Lodge? I feel like I might jinx myself because we had to cancel last year.

Hey, we're at BLT at the same time on May 1 and 2! Well, we head to the airport on May 2 but we'll be there on May 1. I think that is our Hollywood Studios day and then plan to come back to the resort to watch fireworks at night from the lounge. It's one of the grad nights at MK so I think they'll have fireworks late for them, if I remember correctly.

Yes we will
I'm a little bummed we have to change rooms. I have a one bedroom for both nights but could only get MK view on May 1 and could only get Bay Lake view for May 2. I was on a waitlist for 45+ days....now I'm calling day by day....trying to get the same view. I don't care which view....just prefer not to have to switch rooms. Oh well...worse comes to worse, I get to experience both views and decide which I like better for future trips. We also plan to watch the fireworks from the lounge on May 1 (at least this is the agenda so far). So perhaps I'll see ya there. Yes....I did see May 1 was Grad Night. We were planning on doing Typhoon Lagoon on May 1, watching fireworks at night and then doing MK on Sunday. Then off to VB on Monday. Just a short visit for us....we're moving dd out of FSU for the summer and just couldn't not stop in WDW for a pit-stop

See ya at BLT Inkmahm ....I'll be posting on the DIS when we arrive.

There are reports of new BLT declarations so hopefully your waitlist will come thru or one of your phone calls will get a room!

Hi all, I shall be returning home in a few weeks. I am spending 2 nights at the Villas in a studio and then a 3rd night at Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato. I had been calling MS everyday trying to get at least 2 nights and the lodge and finally got lucky. I can't wait.

 

[DVCGeek]

bgraham34 - glad you got your 2 nights and have fun at the 'sandwich!

 

[Granny]

The only way I would be willing to give up our VWL points is to pry them from my cold, dead, fingers (2048 - I think. I'll let you know when I get there)

I saw this on another thread and just had to copy it over here.

Dizny Dad....YOU ROCK!!!
