***The Official April 2016 Thread!***

Question 1:
MK: Splash (still my vote for "Best Ride") or 7DMT.
Epcot: probably Soarin'
DHS: Star Tours. I ride over and over.
AK: Safari, but my favorite attraction is the Nemo show.

Question 2:
Hands down, no contest, Jack Skellington and Sally. I will have to retire or change jobs before I can go in the fall, but MNSSHP is on my Bucket List.

 

[Mousemommy1]

I'll post a Question of the Day for today:

Which character have you (or your kids, spouse, etc) never met, but wish you did?

Mine is Alice in Wonderland

I wish I was able to meet Darth vader when we were at the Villians Party a couple of years ago, but my youngest daughter flipped out and wouldn't go near him, so DH and our oldest daughter went. They have the best selfies of them with Darth Vader!! And now Darth Vader doesn't meet anymore.

I'm not missing out on Chewbacca and I'll have to make do with Kylo Ren

I am def meeting Chewie!! I still can't believe Darth Vader won't be there anymore. That's just not right. Although my 7 yr old DS is super excited to meet Kylo Ren.

Flynn Rider - I don't even know if there has ever been a meet and greet for him, but I imagine it would be a lot of fun. And I'd love it if there were a jack sparrow meet at wdw. I met him at Paris DL and he was great. Tried to distract us and steal my friends ring off her finger.

Back when the Rapunzel meet and greet first started, Flynn was there with her and he was hilarious!! We have the funniest pictures with him and the whole family doing the smolder...

Flynn was wonderful when he met! That was back when the movie first came out and Rapunzel met where Merida meets now. He was great! And I agree about Jack. We met him in DLP as well years ago and the guy they had was amazing. (As an aside the dude who was friends with him was great about making sure everyone got their turn and no one shoved their kid or themselves in front of you. When his handler announced he was going in after one more group a group realized my friends hadn't understood and shoved themselves in front of us, so Jack reached right through their group as they were trying to make him pose, grabbed my friend's hand, and brought us over to a photo op spot for our pictures.)

I love the idea of a question of the day, Mousemommy1! I haven't seen it happen before, and it sounds like such fun I'm gonna answer all the questions right now to catch up!

We've done these on some past threads like this - getting everyone excited with Question of the Day!

So, I'll start -- What # trip is this for you and your travel party???

DP and I have been to the World 4 times together (the first time was with her family, and once we (mistakenly) brought a friend along). This will be our 5th trip together. She went a few times as a kid (not sure the number), but my family was more of a Disneyland family when I was growing up, so this is my 5th trip to the World.

Question of the Day!!

What is your favorite ride in each park?

MK: Main Street Electrical Parade
Epcot: Captain EO (I'm still heartbroken that it's gone)
HS: Fantasmic!
AK: Finding Nemo

...I love shows I've got top rides too, but what I dream about when I'm in Disney withdrawl are the shows

I'll post a Question of the Day for today:

Which character have you (or your kids, spouse, etc) never met, but wish you did?

We've both wanted to meet the talking Mickey but haven't yet. It's on the top of the list this time!

 

[Mousemommy1]

It's a new week, and a new Question of the Day!!!
