When this ride first opened, lines were MASSIVE. Now, not as much, but still gets a decent queue. (I'd say third in FL behind Peter Pan and Dumbo.) It's a cute ride, but not the classic that is Peter Pan. It doesn't have the early morning draw that some of the other rides do, but can build lines by mid-day. I personally don't see the appeal to adults, but a great ride for the 8 and under set. (Unlike Mr. Toads, which was awesome in it's weirdness.)

First trip with DD at 3.5 years old, she was completely terrified by this ride, and we still feel the reprecussions in each trip we take, as she is essentially afraid of any ride she hasn't ridden before, all thanks to the horror of Winnie the Pooh. Ironically, she'll ride Pooh now, though usually only once...those Heffalumps and Woozles really got her that first trip.
