We were there from the 21st to the 28th. The photopass people were everywhere. We got about 100 pictures taken with them. they didn't ask this trip though the were to busy too.
I really liked the nemo ride. It was better than no ride in the seas. Turtle talk was cute, but not cute enough for a long wait. My wife and I did walk around the rest of the trip using hand on head duuuuuudes!
We found a wal-mart about 5 min from the parks and got some warm stuff (hats mainly).
Nemo the musical was totally awesome. We saw it 3 times, and wanted to go again. The music is great and the way the charcters work really ties together well.
The only really crowded days we had were Wed - Fri. Sat began to ease up and sun - tuesday we waited 20 min max for anything.
We did make the mistake to go to the outlet mall on Black Friday. I never will leave my house on that day again.
It seems the week after Tgiving is a perfect time to go if you can.
Wonders of Life opened on sunday and will be open until Jan. 1st. Body wars and cranium command are open, but I forgot how rough body wars was. As a kid I loved it. As an adult I felt very sick. I can handle almost anything, but they had no AC on in the car, it was super jerky, and just all aroung made me feel yuck. A few of the stations are open, but I see why it is closed 99% of the time. I think this and universe of energy need to go. I know they are what EPCOT was about, but EPCOT is also supposed to be a cutting edge future world not outdated. There is a lot that can be done with the human body with the newest technology. Wonders of life is just too far gone.
The new pirates was OK. The line was way to long for so few changes. We missed the tutorial which is something I really wanted to see.
Country bears were not in xmas show. CM said they would be the week of xmas and that was probably it.
We saw a lot of dream fastpasses and dream ears, but no team members. A CM on Buzz gave us a couple of fastpasses for anyride in the park for no reason so that was a little magic.

A family of 3 came to the Mickey show in tomorrow land after wishes. Plenty of room in theater. The couple in front of us were there looooong before the show started and had found prime seats. The two adults and adult child came and sat next to them. they did not all fit in the space due to being pooh size and told the people to move down. The couple politly said there is room on our other side, but we got here extra early to get these seats. With a fling of not so magical words the people got up and moved to the section behind and to the left of the couple. This put them accross the walkway from me. They caught the sweep up guy CM and told him the people would not move. At this point no move all the way accross the row anouncement had been made or was ever made. The CM made the people move, but before the othe family could move into the place someone else swiped the seats and the couple were able to move back a little. I had already planned to get the seats and let the couple move back so everything worked out.

On tran to animal kingdom lot and a coupple loaded a stroller with a 5 or 6 year old in it on the tram. The back CM came and told them that they would not be able to leave until the item was folded. The dad huffed off and walked to the car as mom began to voice her opinion. " This is f%#$$ng stupid. How retarded are you? It was wedge in here it wasn't going to fall out." All of this in front of her teenage son and about 15 very young children within earshot. Dad beat the family to thier row. She had a lot to say, but did not want to walk with her husband and child and chose to stay on the tram instead.

Yep, Wishes is about to start, the light go out and someone starts to scream. The first single firework is shot and I am turned around to see two grown men scuffleing with each others collars and a bunch of wives trying to seperate them. The call for Security goes out, but no one comes. I look at the guy next to me and we both understand that it is not our problem they are stupid, if they were really going to get rowdy they would have already. There was no immediate danger to anyone but them so I finished wishes. Now don't get me wrong in a situation where anyone was in danger I would have stepped in and at 6'4" 275 I could have taken them for sure, but not as wishes began. How stupid can you be to fight there then during wishes.
Just because Disney is for kids for the most part. Adult do not have to act like 5 year olds.
We saw the flag retreat whick was very moving. We also saw the family fun parade which we had never seen before.
Great trip just a little odd this time.

On my soapbox for a moment
I saw 4 things that disturbed me on our trip. One women was in line with us at Test Track. Stated her daughter had to be in the back and we said that was fine we have ridden this like 25 times. The duaghter cried uncontrolably the entire ride. The mother kept telling her she had no idea it was a fast ride. WHAT!!!! did you miss the signage in the cue? Did you miss the car flying around the outside turn at 65 MPH? Did you not watch the pre show? Anyway this women found her way behind us again 3 days later at EE. We were in the single rider line and she was about 10 people behind us. About 6 people behind us a man rejoined his party ( I know single rider line has no parties). People do this all the time. It was a difference of one person and they were a in the back of the line. She perceded to pitch a HUGE fit. Telling the men who spoke very little english that she spoke spanish, and "real good" (her words) english and knew what they were saying. She then got a CM involved. The men told her to go ahead of all of them. The funniest thing was that there was a man in line between the two parties. When she motioned for him to move up he said no and told her she was being a child.#2

I used to love Body Wars, too, but my motion sickness gets worse as I get older. I guess I'll have to remember the Dramamene if I want to enjoy Body Wars this year!
It makes me think of the times I've said something similar!
