What do you Keep Missing?

[lorraine31]

This will be my 5th year at Disney in a row and probably my last visit for a few years. Anyway there are just some things that we just never seem to get around to. Never been on the Liberty Bell or gone in the Hall of Presidents. Never been into One Mans's dream or Journey Into the Imagination. Are these things worth visiting and what is it that other people just walk past because you've just got so much to get through?

I haven't been on the Liberty Belle since I was a kid--I found it rather underwhelming even then so I haven't repeated it. I do enjoy the Hall of Presidents. On our last trip, I had some time on my own and went through One Man's Dream--I thought it was really cool. And Journey into Imagination is one of my favorites.

Oddly, I've never seen Fantasmic at WDW but I've seen it at DL. Every time I try, it rains buckets and gets cancelled. I've kind of just come to terms with the fact that I should just stop trying. I feel like I'm ruining it for all the other people that try to see it on the night I've chosen.

4 years in a row and 2 trips last summer and we still have yet to see Fantasmic! I plan to get it in our our first night this next trip!

The finding nemo show in AK. For some reason, it just never fits in our schedule (because of the weird show times at AK) and although I know its worth it, we just never make it.

We have yet to see Fantasmic as well. We keep saying we're going to make a point of seeing it, and then something happens that causes us to miss it!

 

[lorraine31]

I would really recommend fantasmic, because it is a really amazing show, but I know the feeling that you have to really try hard to see it. Last year we were there for a week and it was only on twice. We decided which showing we would go to, but around 2pm the heavens opened and it poured all day so we left the park. We hadn't bought park hopper tickets and had pretty much done everything we had to do in DHS and had things we had to do in other parks, so we then had to upgrade our tickets to the park hopper option for the sole purpose of seeing fantasmic on a different night. It is amazing though.

We had missed it before too...then last trip we went to the very last show of the day...and when it ended the park had already closed so it was kind of weird and neat walking out of an empty park with just the people we saw the show with!

never been on the Liberty Bell Riverboat, either! We always mean to but never get around to it.

The Liberty Bell is a great, relaxing place to rest. I recommend it highly for the times you just want a quiet place for a while and the people mover is too far away.

Let's see what do we miss nowadays... We never see Fantasmic even though it's great because frankly it's just too much of a hassle. We also usually miss parades because it's great to see other things while those are going on. We haven't seen the Hall of Presidents in years because we're not that interested but I keep meaning to check it out once again. We always miss the American Adventure for some reason too.

Those are the things that I care about that we tend to miss. There are others that we have no interest in at all but we miss those on purpose.

 

[0hLovely]

we always seem to miss:

Fantasmic
It's a small world
tea cups
Liberty bell too.

im sure we actually miss a whole bunch, but we always have a good time!!

The timing just never works for fantasmic ( im sad we're gonna miss it again next month's trip too ) and Small world is always 100+ minutes for a boat ride.. def not waiting for that.

 

[vettechick99]

Liberty Belle is a huge snooze to me. I would only go if you are looking to sit down for 30 mins and do nothing.

 

[GoofyforDisney3]

But the problem with the liberty bell is you do not always get to sit. We ended up having to stand the entire time - in the heat - all because I had never been on it. Wish I would have just skipped it. LOL

 

[DutchsMommy]

We seem to miss Spectro quite often. We are usually there off season so it is often only happening a few nights we are there and we just never seem to manage it. We have seen it once and it was kind-of a fluke - it was supposed to be cancelled due to rain, but it dried up in the Park and so we got to see it (with hardly anyone around which was also nice).

 

[disneydreamer1970]

I have been 9 times and have never been on the Liberty Bell and have never been over to Tom Sawyer Island...maybe this upcoming November....just maybe!

Haven't been on the Liberty Belle since I was a kid and then there were other places that I would much rather have been. boring. I try to see the Hall of Presidents once after each new president and that's all I need.

Finally saw One Man's Dream for the first time on my last trip because I usually don't do DHS that much on any trip so I committed myself to doing everything there that time. Really enjoyed it.

Still missed out on the Lights Motors Action (?) car stunt show. That, the Monsters Comedy show at MK, and the Fights of Wonder bird show at AK are probably the only things that I have never done in all of the times I've been there.

But, as an adult not traveling with kids, I usually skip the carousel, the tea cups, Dumbo, Aladdin's carpets, the tomorrowland speedway, and all of toontown.

I thought we would make it on our last trip in December 2009, but I missed it again. We've been to WDW over two dozen times and I still miss some of the new stuff.

I do make an effort to see everything once at WDW. This includes going at different times of the year to experience the Flower and Garden show, Night of Joy, Food and Wine Festival and the Christmas season. I've done the fireworks cruises, MNSSHP, and MVMCP. I was so happy to see Soap Opera Weekend; we went the last year they had it at DS. We didn't do this all in one year, either.

It's a matter of choice to do it all or not. My new kick is to do every restaurant; so, we mix it up everytime we go now.

You won't die not going to some attractions; so, if you prefer not to do the ones you mentioned it will be alright.

 

[cindykelley]

I don't know if this is strange or not but....

We are coming up on our third trip and we never go to Downtown Disney. I've been told it's just shopping and restaurants. I know they're good restaurants, but I don't really want to take time out of the parks to go eat somewhere else. Is there anything else there we are missing?

 

[MissRoseRed]

The Liberty Belle and Tom Sawyer Island. Keep meaning to, but I tend to be too impatient for any attraction that begins at a certain time. Feels like I'm wasting time on the unknown when I could be zipping around doing the things I know I love I did finally get to the Hall of Presidents and quite enjoyed it, but might not go every time...

Oh, and the show at China over in Epcot. I have tried every year but I absolutely cannot wait out that lady with the (what instrument is that?). She never stops playing. I got through three songs last year and I thought I made it to the movie, but then she said, "for this next song..." and I couldn't take it anymore. I must figure out the secret to getting to see just the movie... Or learn patience.

EE and Finding Nemo show at AK
