Finding Our Laughing Place ~ Summer Disney PTR*UPDATE 6/25 LAST POST! LEAVING MONDAY*

[PlutosRHM55]

Oooo... a D.C. TR! LOVE IT! I went to D.C. before I went to Disney, so I know some things about where things are down there. I can't believe you actually stayed in D.C.! I stayed in a neighboring town in Virginia, across the river from Georgetown, so I had to take the Metro to D.C. (which is an experience I hope you didn't miss ) Well, can't wait to hear more about it and any Disney PTR stuff ! You shall update soon

I think you've got some good ones. Though not many people like Astro Orbitor. If you gave me a list of rides you never done I probably could pick out ones you should try. You definitely have to promise me your going to ride Space Mountain, because that is a great ride! Update soon!

Okay,here's the attractions I haven't been on or seen that aren't on my list:
- Magic Flying Carpets
- Ellen's Energy Adventure
- Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular
- Muppet*Vision 3D
- Voyage of the Little Mermaid (One time I've seen it)
- Finding Nemo the Musical

 

[PlutosRHM55]

Okay,here's the attractions I haven't been on or seen that aren't on my list:
- It's A Small World (I've been on it,just not last year because it was closed)
- Magic Flying Carpets
- Snow White's Scary Adventures (I've been on it once,but that was 1998)
- Ellen's Energy Adventure
- Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular
- Lights Motors Action
- Muppet*Vision 3D
- Walt Disney: One Man's Dream
- Voyage of the Little Mermaid (One time I've seen it)
- Dinosaur
- Expedition Everest
- Kali River Rapids
- Finding Nemo the Musical

I bolded the ones you should definitely go on. All the AK ones are must, because they are just awesome. EE is my favorite! SWSA is closing soon so you should see. LMA is something you should see at least once. IASW is a classic so... of course! The only I didn't highlight but have seen is the Finding Nemo one. Its been a big disappointment and I wasn't a huge fan though I thought it was cute. Magic Flying Carpets aren't Dumbo so it's not worth the ride (though I've been on it and not Dumbo (shame on me)). I haven't seen or rode any of the other ones.

~Valerie

 

[PlutosRHM55]

That is an awesome list right there, though you have forgotten TSM in there. LOL I still like it anyways. I have to ask, how is Sounds Dangerous? Nobody ever really talks about so I want to know what exactly happens. Is it really closing?

I would of put TSM for #1 but I chose Fantasmic instead lol I'll add it to #2 lol

Sounds Dangerous was okay and yes I heard it's closing after Star Tours II opens.

I cant wait to hear more about your upcoming vacation!

 

[Mickeysgirl34]

Okay,so we're deciding on a dinning plan this trip and I'm trying to decide on some good restaurants and quick service places to eat.

Right now I have:
Restaurants:
- Sci-Fi Dine in Theater
- Prime Time Cafe

Quick Service:
- Pecos Bill
- Cosmic Ray's
- Casey's
- Electric Umbrella

Suggestions and/or opinions about about any good places to eat will be accepted!

~Valerie

 

[PlutosRHM55]

I don't like SciFi Dine-In, so unless this is a repeat visit, I advise not going. I love Sanaa and Garden Grill, so check those out if you can I'll also add La Hacienda de San Angel, the new Mexico TS. I love the QS part of it, so I'm guessing the TS is even better. For QS, Golden Oak Outpost is a favorite of mine. Nobody is ever there and the food is pretty good. I've also heard really good things about Earl of Sandwich so that too Hope this helps!

 

[Mickeysgirl34]

Woah! How long has it been since I updated my PTR?! Probably very long! Sorry for the wait folks!

We have finally decided on two character dinning we are doing for our upcoming trip!

Crystal Palace (Lunch)

Garden Grill (Dinner)

We are also deciding on whether we should do Chef Mickey's or the Princess buffet at Norway!

MORE UPDATES TO COME!

~Valerie

 

[PlutosRHM55]

to picking those two restaurants! They are awesome meals.

I'm guessing my advice helped out with this...

[Mickeysgirl34]

Hey! I know I already did an update,but I wanted to share this with my fellow readers! I know I decided on two character dinning but we have decided on some other restaurants!

Restaurants:
50's Prime Time Cafe (On Hold)
Hoop-Dee-Doo Revue (On Hold)
Crystal Palace (July 1st;Lunch. RESERVATION MADE!)
Chef Mickey's (Dinner RESERVATION MADE!)
T-Rex (June 27th;Dinner)

We also have some undecided restaurants:
Rainforest Cafe

Bongo's Cuban Cafe

The restaurants aren't official in the trip until my sister makes the reservations but we know we're doing them! My parents didn't want to do Garden Grill this year. They didn't like the food choices. Oh well!

~Valerie

 

[PlutosRHM55]

What happened to the Garden Grill? If you had to remove that from your list, try to put it back in, because I think you would enjoy it there. Besides that, the choices are looking good

It does sound good but there's not enough time to do it. We're doing Crystal Palace,Ohana's,and Chef Mickey's. My mom thought that's enough character dinning.
