Oh just brace yourself!
Same exact thing happened to us in December! It never got fixed though. We'd move then break again. I figured WTH....I started taking pictures of the thing. It was always one of my favorites and I didn't have a single pic. I took a dozen or so. The kids were so mad that we wasted so much "ride" time. Me and Sidney loved this though and thought this was one of those "fun" memorable experiences.
I was only Eight when I rode Carousel Of Progress the first time--but have ridden it subsequent times. This one is a true gem to me and means a lot. I just hope that it stays b/c it is so popular
I figure the cure for THAT song stuck in my head is to hitch a ride on IASM!!
Hello!! Sorry I have been MIA, I love your attraction of the day it is soo cute! School has been nuts so I'm way behind but it's vacation at the school where I teach next week so I will be catching up asap!!
Can you guess what I'm going to say right now?
I don't have a memory! I'm going to start to cry soon lol Heading to the gym now but I'll text you after I'm home and shower and stuff
I always joke with my mom that one of my prerequisites for a husband is that he loves Disney. Well, we were on COP in December and sitting just a few seats down from us was a guy (who looked to be a few years older than me?) and his girlfriend. She was nodding off the whole time, but he was on the edge of his seat grinning and mouthing the words. Plus, he was CUTE.
As we exited the ride, I whispered to my mom "see, now THAT'S the kind of guy I want to marry!" and we busted out laughing.
Attraction of the Day...
The Carousel of Progress
So everyone who's been on Carousel of Progress knows that it rotates as you switch scenes...well as we are starting to move to the next scene-it comes to a screeching halt-LITERALLY it was screeching and then came to a stop. So we were all looking at each other like what do we do now? And then....then scene that we had just watched started again!So everyone was like "GGGGGreat!"
So we had to watch the scene a 3rd time!!! By this time, everyone was saying the lines along with them and singing "There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow shining at the end of every day...there's a great big beautiful tomorrow...just a dream away!" finally after the 3rd time, we started moving again!! Everyone clapped and cheered. But we held our breath after each scene and hoped we would start moving.
). Well, we ended up switching rooms so that we could have connecting doors, and I called down to the front desk to make sure the basket would be delivered to the correct room. They put me on hold and I got to hear "There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow." Don't tell anyone, but I was totally jumping on my bed and singing along. 
Dude, the same thing happened to us once too. It was hilarious because a guy in the next room would yell "EVERYBODY!" just as the song started up again...and again...and again.... And everybody would sing along! It was great!
Random unrelated CoP memory: I ordered a gift basket from Disney Florist for my aunt, and it was supposed to be delivered to the resort (AKL!
Only in Disney, right?
Glad you're here!
Aw hi!
OMG poor baby!!!! I would've said something, haha.
I do miss the old version where you saw the house sets too! My B/F never got to see them so I'm sad about that.
For two people who were skeptical about even going to Disney back in 05, they sure do love it now! 
OMG that is too cuteTest Track ~ I don't have to write anything here...I can just show you!
Attraction of the Day...
Test Track
This happened on our '08 trip so it's taken from my TR. This was the day that we decided Epcot hated us because it was pouring all day:
Finally, the rain had cleared! We walked out of the gift shop and could hear the TT cars going by overhead. They had started?! We saw people getting in the fast pass return line and decided to get in it because our time had passed. It was a pretty long line, but we didn't care. Soon, we noticed we weren't moving anywhere and looked up front and the doors to TT were closed! People started going up to the CM's and asking what the deal was. We heard someone say that the CM's said that TT is still closed and the reason cars are going by is because they have to get all of the cars back in sync with each other before they can begin loading again. Soon the stand-by line was going WAY past us and soon we couldn't even see the end! By this time, everyone decided to start sitting down. And this is when we came to the conclusion: Epcot officially hates us.
We sat there for who knows how long. Soon, people in front of us started leaving. We were working our way up to the front and sis and I told mom that we weren't leaving this line unless the CM's tell us that TT won't be open for the rest of the day. People kept leaving....and finally when they opened the ride, we were second family in line!
It doesn't get much better than that! I bet it made the long wait somewhat more tolerable. 
Mom still refuses to ride after that, and our poor brother (who was just eight or nine at the time) was fairly traumatized for a couple years. Especially when they told us about how they were all sort of squishing each other because of the leaning track.
