[GeorgiaDawg7]

Favorite Queue: This is real tough for me. I'd have to say Space Mountain. You can't beat the star tunnel music and dark hallways you walk through. I love the sound of the coasters clicking on the tracks and seeing the coasters about to take off through the glass window. With the audio recording "space shuttle this is flight safety, you are cleared for launch"

At night I love the BTMRR and Space Mountain queues. There's just something about Frontierland at night.

Honorable mention: Soarin' and The Tower of Terror.

Favorite Disney Snack: without a doubt the turkey leg. It can't just be any turkey leg either. It has to be from the Frontierland cart.

Honorable mention: Kit Kat from the vending machine at All-Star sports (personal tradition)

Favorite Spot: eating at a table by the window in the overhang (upstairs) of Columbia Harbour House. It's nice to watch people cross the border of Liberty Square/Fanstasyland and see people go in the HM queue. I also enjoy watching the rafts going to TSI and the steamboat go by on the Rivers of America while enjoying a nice meal.

Favorite on ride spot- on the TTA when you make the right turn to go into the Interplanetary Convention Center at night. I love looking to the left and seeing the Castle, Crystal Palace, old Plaza Swan Boat loading docks, and the rest of the Main Street lights shining bright.

Favorite Omnivore ride system in the MK: As you can tell It's the Tomorrowland Transit Authority. It's my favorite attraction in the whole resort.

Favorite Water feature/fountain: I enjoy looking at the fountain at DHS right outside the the Pizza Planet with all of the muppets on it.

1. What is your favorite queue in the four parks?
-This is a hard question! However, I would have to say the queue at Big Thunder Mountain. I love the theme and I love being able to look and see the trains running from the queue. There are definitely some very close seconds, though!

2. What is your favorite Disney snack?
-Cream cheese pretzel, hands down.

3. What is your favorite spot to sit down and enjoy the atmosphere?
-There are some tables outside of the Germany pavilion at Epcot that I've always found to be nice for a rest. You can see the water, you can people-watch, and just enjoy the atmosphere.

4. What is your favorite dark or slow ride in the Magic Kingdom? (anything other than the 3 mountains)
-Pirates of the Caribbean. This ride holds a lot of sentiment for me, not to mention it's always nice and cool!

5. What is your favorite water feature in the four parks?
-Fountain of Nations at Epcot.
