just back - random thoughts

[WINTER]

Used DME to the fullest for the first time and LOVED it! Stayed in 50's. Too far trek for me - wish we could have stayed closer to food court. Hated Mission: Space (intense verse) thanks kids for talking me into it (not!)! Loved Rock N Roller Coaster - my all time favorite! Used QSDP for first time. Enjoyed using it but at times - too much food! Never had to wait long for buses! This was my 23rd trip to WDW and did several attractions had never done before or hadn't done in several years such as Safari (AK), Astro Orbiter (MK), Back Lot Tour (HS), American Idol (HS). I enjoyed Captain EO (kids didn't). All in all, I had a great time. One more thing, 2 nights in a row, cast member put me and my 14 and 18 year old together on Splash Mtn in the back row. Loved the back row - too crowded for 3 people!

Glad you had a good time Winter. I can't do the intense version of Mission space either but love the mild version (green)

Thanks for the report. We also find Pop bus service to be top notch, better than some of the higher priced places we have stayed.

and.....holy canoly you have bene to WDW 23 times and never been on the Safari? So did you like it?

Glad you are still having fun after all these trips.. I can't do orange either btw.

I refuse to try the more intense version of Mission Space. I'd probably be fine, but I don't want to risk it. I also have a fear of throwing up, and that extends to being around other people when they do it, so if I was on the ride and someone else threw up it would seriously ruin my day. TRAUMA!

I like the less intense version though.

The orange side of M:S ruins my whole day. The green I can tolerate!

Glad you had a great trip.

Glad you had a great trip.

I couldn't help but wonder last time I was there WHY they don't call the intense version the GREEN one since it is the one that leaves just about everyone who rides it GREEN

Glad you enjoyed I'm heading this weekend. What days were you there and how were the crowds at specific parks?

Totally agree here based on our Nov09 trip. I don't know how people do the DDP, much less the DxDP.

I can't believe they put 2 adults and a 14 year old on the same row for Splash. I think it is a bit of a squeeze for me and my 8 & 6 year old

Yes, I did enjoy the Safari.

We were there Aug 9 - 14. I felt the parks were crowded. Most lines were for the popular rides, of course. Used fast passes. Was given 3 fast passes to BTM one day, which was great - thanks to whoever! Took advantage of EMH - morning better than evening.

That would be too tight a fit! One time a cm tried to put 3 of us on BTMRR and I politely said we wouldn't fit and we were given 2 seats instead of one. I'm flattered he thought I was more slender, but there's no way we would have fit.

Thanks for the trip report. Sounds like you had a nice time!
