[pintrader]

Jen,
Might that be STARRING ROLLS BAKERY? Featuring my Nestle Toll House Cookies? Cookies for everyone!!

 

[lacool]

Wow, looks like I missed quite a party last night. That's what I get for going out one night a month! Anyhooo, since some of the CC regulars were up late swilling Whiparitas, I'd better post a softball, while they sleep it off!
What is the name of the prehistoric children's playground area in the Animal Kingdom?

Edited to say: Yay! I made page 71!!!!

 

[pintrader]

My last post of the morning kiddos. Would that playground be the slip and slide "BONEYARD"?

 

[lacool]

Hey Kathryn! Long time no see!!! And yes, the playground is in fact the Boneyard. A fossilized AAQ card to you!

 

[DisneyJen]

A steaming cup of coffee AAQ to Kathryn

 

[Racerjay]

Morning all!
quite a party last night. -yawn-, hate getting up early after a blow-out like that one. oh well.
i throw out a softball for everyone this morning.

How long is the last drop on Splash Mountain?

 

[DisneyJen]

Hey RJ Is the drop 71 feet ... seven stories

 

[Granny]

Well, it looks like there was quite a party here last night!

And today is Friday, so who knows what this evening holds?

RJay...I think the Splash Mountain drop is 52 feet. Or maybe 54 feet if I'm sitting in the front of the boat!

 

[MickeyBabe]

Good Morning all!


RJay... I'll guess 53 feet

 

[Granny]

While we anxiously await the return of RJay, I'll toss out another one for the morning crew:

What scene in GMR immediately follows Busby Berkeley's "Footlight Parade" scene?

 

[DisneyJen]

Granny is it Gene Kelly at the light post from "Singing in the Rain/"

 

[1HourAway]

You throw a party for the 1000th post, that I was responsible for and I missed it!!

Oh well, I guess I'll live! Sorry I missed the whiparitas!! Any left over???

RJ - I'll guess SM drop 40ft.

Granny - I'll guess Mary Poppins scene

 

[B'rer Karen]

Well I'm bummed. I missed a double celebration. You guys had quite the time. I'm stepping over empty cartons of churros and cups from the whiparitas. Whose job was it to clean up?

I'll second the guess of 52 feet for the Splash Mountain drop. BTW, check out the sig. I'll be back *home* in 2 weeks!

 

[Racerjay]

Djen, great guess, but alas the imagineers missed another opportunity to use the magic number.

Granny-your very close but my source has it slightly lower than 52. keep trying.

 

[1HourAway]

Rjay - is it a 50 ft drop?

 

[B'rer Karen]

Racerjay, I'm not sure which source you're using, but according to the Dis website:

Over 100 Audio-animatronic figures entertain you as your log boat winds its way through caves, swamps and bayous, and down three minor drops before climaxing with a 52 foot plunge through the briar patch after Brer Rabbit outfoxes Brer Fox.

 

[Racerjay]

Hmm, the intercot website has it at 50'. oh well, lets just give a 50' aaq to 1hour and a 52' aaq to granny and brer karen.

 

[Granny]

RJay...thanks for the AAQ card, but I'm a firm believer in "your question, your answer!". I figure they could measure that drop a couple of ways (with and without water at the bottom), so no biggie. I'm just happy I was in the ball park!

Karen....good question on the clean up. Madonna used to be very good at that, but she hasn't been in the Chalk Circle for quite a while. I guess we'll all need to pitch in.

And that party was a nice warm up for the big gala we'll be having on September 17....the two year anniversary of the Parks Game thread. If it's anything like last year, that will be a day long celebration!!!


And finally, to keep Jen from rightfully wagging that finger at me, I bestow a sopping wet AAQ card to DJen....Gene Kelly is indeed the second scene at GMR!!!

 

[1HourAway]

Thank you RacerJay.

I'll use it right away to keep the game moving.

What animals are represented on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride?


Good Luck!

 

[gometros]

Darn, I missed page 71

Well, dog is the obvious one. I'll guess donkey and horse also.
