Disney "Bucket List"

we're thinking the character breakfast at the 1900 Park Place restaurant in the Grand Floridian would be the best way for us to spend time with Alice and Mary Poppins. I understand that it isn't a "proper" tea, but its close enough to count as far as I'm concerned!

It is indeed an excellent character breakfast -- featuring mostly British characters. :thumbsup2 I suppose you could have some tea there, but it would be even nicer if these characters would appear at the afternoon tea event.
 
I'd also be interested in doing both of these. Can anyone tell me how?

Especially, has anyone been able to get a clear picture of the last scene in the Haunted Mansion where a hitchhiking ghost is in your doom buggy with you? Unless you're lucky enough that the ride stops when you're at that scene, how else can you get a good picture of that? I know the flash would totally wipe it out, but without it I end up with just a fuzzy blur.

They are adding a ride photo to the HM and I'm wondering if the hitchhiking ghosts will be the photo! Of course this project has been delayed but hopefully not for too long :sad:



Reading through everyone's list has made me a little surprised to know I have accomplished things on someone else's bucket list. It makes me feel kind of special. For my bucket list:

1. 4 parks in one day - and totally agree you need a t-shirt for it.
2. Become a DVC owner - some day
3. Arrive at rope drop and stay until the kiss goodnight at MK
4. Stay at a Polynesian over water bungalow (I'll keep dreaming)
5. Stay at a DVC Villa

Already accomplished:
1. Stay at the WL during Christmas time
2. Attend MVMCP & MNSSHP

That would be awesome -- maybe in time for my trip this October? I understand they have another ghosts picture at MNSSHP where you pose outdoors and they add the ghosts in afterwards. A picture in the doom buggy would be even better. But still, I'd like to know how I can actually take one of these pictures myself, if possible -- has anyone had any luck with this, getting a picture of yourself and the ghost in the doom buggy?
 

Mine:
1) Visit ALL the Disney parks around the world
2) Stay at Aulani
3) Stay at Vero Beach
4) Stay at all WDW resorts
5) Eat at all Disney restaurants (unlikely...)
6) Go on a Disney Cruise
7) Adventures by Disney tour of South Africa
8) Attend MNNSHP and F&WF
9) Attend at 24 hr party (if they still have them)
10) Get Mickey's autograph

Wish I wasn't so far away!!!
 
* Stay at EVERY Disney hotel. ( 4 down )
* Disney Cruise!
* Adventures by Disney
* Eat at Cinderellas royal table.
* Join the Disney Vacation club
* Run Disney event ( Signed up to do one in Oct )
=D
 
Mine would be:

1)Stay at a luxury resort for a two-week Disney Vacation

2)Meet and have my photo taken with all the Disney princes and male characters including Gaston and Capt Jack (for purely academic purposes of course :rolleyes1)

3) Go on HM after 20 years of not going on it after being terrified the first time when I was 4 (might need someone to hold my hand for that though)

4) Work for Disney on their animal conservation stuff

5) Four parks, one day sounds like an awesome challenge too! Would there be a rule of having to ride a certain number of things in each one and/or eat something while you're there?
 
Godders, if I happened to be at Disney at the same time as you, I'd be happy to hit the HM with ya. Its been my favorite from the very first time I rode it when I was 6ish.

There's so many little details there that are brilliant!
 
I've done a few of the things you guys have posted already! Some others I'd love to do someday are...

*Visit DisneyLand/California Adventure, Tokyo Disney, Disneyland Paris, Hong Kong Disneyland, and Shanghai Disney (only WDW so far but I live in Orlando so I've been around a million times!)
*Join DVC
*Stay at Aulani
*Go on a Disney Cruise, specifically I'd like a TA cruise or B2B cruises
*24 hours of disney
*See the Christmas Candlelight Processional

*Eat at Be Our Guest
*Have a photo taken with all of the Disney Princesses

*Participate in a runDisney event

and so many more things!!!

:cool1: That would be great. What dates are you at the World?
 
Its a long expensive haul for us so we only make it to DisneyWorld every 10 years. Our next trip will be February 2016 (for our 20th anniversary). On the plus side, we plan to stay for 20 days, one for ever year we've been married.

Disneyland is closer to home for us so we do that more often, say every 2-3 years. Its a completely different experience for us and is far easier to do in 2-3 days at a shot.

How about you?
