My little announcement

[Disney-Fan]

You didn't mention how was Mission Space? I personally found it to be great, but it was overhyped in my opinion!

That Is ONE of my favorite rides. Even if it’s just a simulator it still is awesome. Heck there was a guy REALY from NASA and he was blown away by how real it was.

[Timon/Pumbaa fan]

Too bad you didn't like Living Seas. I loved it! I thought it was better than Figment and Honey I Shrunk The Kids.

That's what I feel about Test Track, it was good, but very overrated!

[AwallaceUNC]

I really like Test Track. It has the potential to be the perfect attraction, but it falls short in that you only go around once. A bit of a let-down in that sense. Two or three laps would make it Epcot's star E-ticket.

sorry I have been busy so I may not update this too soon.

[JiminyCrick91]

I WILL update this whole thing by next week I am sorry for the delays but I have had a lot on my plate as of late.

[Disney-Fan]

That's what I feel about Test Track, it was good, but very overrated!

I was never here for the hype so I can't say I agree. It is very good though, lots of fun!

[JiminyCrick91]

Well IM back and not busy so now...............


Sunday

That morning we went to Disney-MGM Studios. Music of star wars was blaring 1st the theme song then duel of the fates. There were large posters with Darth Vader saying "Join the republic" and Yoda saying "Join the Jedi Alliance. On the roof of the thing were you put your tickets thru there was a gang of storm troopers saying that they did not know what these strange things were. The one said that they were humans and tourists but they could not tell them apart. Well we then went inside and my sister made me go on the tower of terror again and then went on the rockin' roller coaster but the music was "walk this way" but now they changed it to something I could not understand but still it is an awesome ride. We went to the shops for a VERY long amount of time then my parents wanted to do the backlot tour which I have seen many times so I skipped it and went to "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire - Play it!: Star Wars Special Edition" witch was amazing they had some guy that look pig like sit in the crowed and the 1st player was GREEDO! They asked strange questions up until the question was "who is know for doing dirty work for one Jabba The Hutt?" he answered Chewbacca and they the host guy said "oh I’m so sorry," and yelled "IT WAS YOU!!!!" and 2 storm troopers took him and him pig friend (who was 5 seats down from me) back stage. The life lines were 50/50 ask the Jedi counsel or phone a storm trooper. After he left the guy who operated R2-2 and Warwick Davis talk quickly and give a toy Lightsaber to some one then left.
They were asking easy questions I got 3 wrong and 2 I guessed.
During the whole thing the host was making Hillaruous jokes that I wish I could remeber. At one point the big screens put on a man who hat a
Shirt that said "I’m surrounded by Idiots" and the guy next to me roll his eyes and said "oh thanks there buddy" and the host said "you and me both". Also a woman noticed she was on the screen and started pointing to her shirt then the host said "I'm not really sure what you’re showing me mam" and a lot of other great stuff happened there. After that we went to Muppet-Vision 3-d and after all these years I still I laughed at the same things

Sam the Eaegle: Ladies and gentlemen the 3Ds
Girl in dress 1: I’m Dorothy
Girl in dress 2: I’m Dina
GUY in a dress: IM MAX. Yha Debbie was sick so the union sent me.

Also Rizzo dressed like Mickey, the Muppet labs, the hecklers ect...

We then went had a SAMLL bite (heck I think all I had was chocolate Milk)

Then I remeberd that you needed a fast pass to get things signed by
Warwick Davis so I ran back to see and I found out that they all were gone at 11!!!!

So after a day doing barely anything that I WANTED to we left to Pioneer Hall and Waited for 2 hours for the Hoop-dee-doo Revue. As always it was great but the guy who is the 1 half of the song and dance team was a new guy and the guy played Six Bits was baled when it used to be just the top of his head and the rest was thick a curly (I myself think it was shaved).Our seats were not the best because we are usually in the front but we this time were pretty close to the back but we could see most of it.
The food was better than ever because For once we went to the 1st show of the night. Do I ever wish that this was on DVD or at lest had a CD!!

After that we went to down town Disney and shopped for a long time and after that we went back the hotel.


Again sorry for not updating sooner.

[Pasta67]

That story sounds so cool. A lot of the parts were very funny. Sounds like you had fun.

[AwallaceUNC]

Don't worry about taking your time! I'm really enjoying your updates. Your Muppets quote has me laughing. I love that! Sam Eagle is one of my favorites... I love his line about the "glorious 4-hour tribute to all the nations of the world, but mostly America" or something like that.

RNRC changes songs from ride to ride. Perhaps you heard "Love In An Elevator," which is actually changed to "Love in a Rollercoaster" for the ride... that's my favorite.

Star Wars Weekends sounds like a blast, especially Millionaire. I hope they continue these in future years so that I can eventually make it to one (especially since I'm getting an annual pass in a few weeks!

[JiminyCrick91]

I'm getting an annual pass in a few weeks!

-Aaron

YOU ARE INCREDIBLY LUCKY!!

[Timon/Pumbaa fan]

Well we then went inside and my sister made me go on the tower of terror again and then went on the rockin' roller coaster

How can you be "made" to go on Tower of Terror? That's probably the coolest ride ever! You can have the biggest hype in the world for this ride and still not be disappointed.

As for Rockin Roller Coaster I liked that ride too. I'm not a huge fan of gigantic scary roller coaster, but this one was done perfectly. I love the loops and the music! Way too go Disney!

You're lucky you got to go on a Staw Wars weekend. I just hope I can go sometime!

[JiminyCrick91]

Well we then went inside and my sister made me go on the tower of terror again and then went on the rockin' roller coaster

How can you be "made" to go on Tower of Terror?

You can not want to go on it a have your sister bug you till you do go on she does it every time.

WELL ON TO..................

Monday



Well it was the beginning of the week and it FINAILY felt like Walt Disney World as I went to the Magic Kingdom (which we most of the time have gone to 1st). As we walked up to the entrance they were about to start there opening song and dance with a bunch of singers, Mickey and pals witch was awesome and had a bunch of great songs and Casey Jr. whene Mickey Donald goofy ect came along on the train. well then we went to the bakery on main street and had a glass of milk and a freshly baked warm and gooey chocolate chip cookie that tasted amazing it was quite possibly the cookie I have EVER had. The castle was amazing it was covered in baners, gold spielres, and gold versions of many classic Disney Characters. There was a large TV camera in front of the Mickey & Walt statue and was pointed passed that at the castle. I asked why it was there and the woman said they were doing a TV spot to air during The Wonderful World Of Disney and that Mike Eisner was rumoured to be coming but since she was only a there to keep people out of the way because once the camera person was there they would start taping. After learning about that interesting tid bit of info we all rushed over to Splash Mountain and rode that twice with no wait AT ALL! Every time I ride this I get so exited about the rumoured Song of the South DVD. Then we went on Big Thunder Mountain Railroad with seemed shorter and tamer than I remembered but was still lots of fun. We headed off to Liberty Square and Rode The Haunted Mansion which is still a classic (I Still think they should have kept Don Knotts's small part in the film but oh well).We then went back to the Caribbean Plaza and guess what we rowed there? That sort of funny if you don’t know its Pirates Of the Caribbean.It was lots of fun and this time I noticed how many little things they DID put in the movie (not that I cared because it was GREAT whene there wasn’t a film).THAN we headed back to Fantasyland and Went on Its a Small World which was nice. They also refurbished the front it is now White and Gold also the clock RELLY works and dings every 30 mins. I then got to see Mickey's Philharmagic I loved every second from when the interments themselves were playing the Mickey Mouse March ALLLL the way to when goofy was telling us to have a Philharmagical day. It was Amazing and is DEFFENDLY the best of the 3 D or 4 d things In All of Walt Disney World. After that sheer amazment know as Mickey's Philharmagic we whnet to Tomorrowland to go on Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, Stitch’s Great Escape! And Space Mountain. Well Buzz had a wait of 60 mins, Stitch had a wait of 75 mins and so did Space Mountain so we got fast passes to Space Mountain at about 8 that night because they were running out like Stitch that was apparently gone about an hour before. Since they were such LOOOOOONG waits we just went on Tomorrowlad Transit Authority (or formerly the WEDway PeopleMover) and we noticed that Walt Disney's Carrousel of Progress was up and kickin' (which was not "in progress" in years).So as soon as we were done on that I rushed over to it and watched it twice (and a third later in the day). Some of seats were broken and had gum under but only a small bit of them so with no refbushment that I tell I think that they were going to shut it down for good but this year is its 30th anniversary. It was just like I remembered heck even better but remembered "Threes a Great Big Beutaful tomorrow shining at the end of every day". After that we had lunch at Cosmic Ray's Starlight Café. Were they had an Audio Animatronic grenny bule alien named Sunny Eclipse who sang and told jokes. Then we went back to Adventureland and did the Enchanted Tiki Room: Under New Management which was good but I still want to see the original. Then I went up to the Swiss Family Tree house which was interesting yet different. There are so many cool things in there. Then I went to Main Street, U.S.A.for the shops and I bouht a lot of stuff (be worned freeze dryed ice crème teases sort of like ice cream but has a horrid texture and aftertaste).We had dinner at Tony’s Town Square and had WOULDERFUL spaghetti and 2 big meatballs. After a fine meal I wenet on Buzz Lightyear’s ride with fast-passes we got at luch then I wenet on Walt Disney's Carrousel of Progress that 3rd time . After that I was going to go on Space Mountain but I felt sick (not food related I dont think. I think it was the heat) so we left for the hotel.


look for the last 2 updates soon (but not to soon because my 8th grade grad is Wensday).

[Timon/Pumbaa fan]

Great report Jiminy! I love Carrousel of Progress! It's may sound stupid, but it's actually my second favorite ride there(just behind Splash Mountain). And if this goes soon like rumor has it, I'll go straight on the computor and order 3 Save Disney bumper stickers!

[Escapay]

Wow, sounds like you had a busy vacation Jiminy!

It's nice to see another CoP Fan too!

Did you buy any popcorn/ice cream/roasted almonds during your time in the Magic Kingdom? I most likely know who the vendor was who sold it to you. Tell me if he/she was rude or not, lol.

Escapay.

NOW IT’S TIME FOR........................


Tuesday

Well we got up that morning decided to try again at the Magic Kingdom after some breakfast at the hotel. It was about 10:45-ish and my sister was bugging about finding funnel cakes so I had a hot dog and waited for her after a wile My father went to check out the Country Bear Jamboree it was just as great as I rembered. Then we went over to guess where... Tomorrowland to get fast passes for Space Mountain and Stitch's Great Escape! My parents got the fast passes for Space Mountain because Stitch's Great Escape! had a wait of only TEN MINS.! We went inside and I felt as if I were watching the TV show The grand console woman was on the per-per show also so was captain Gantu and you could here Pleakley.As we went to the next area there was some robot talking to us about alien levels and such than they say that they are shipping in a level 3 the robot, Gantu, and Pleakley are stunned and terrified (Gantu less than the other two) and we go the next area were Exp.626 appears brakes louse and wrecks havoc. Dissipate it not being what I expected, slite dissapointment, and screaming/ crying (scratch that) BALLING children it was fun but again not what you will be exiting. When it was time to go over to Space Mountain they told us it broke down and it may take 2 hours to fix. Then they said ten mins. Then they said they did not know so we left (even thou if they ever got it working it was good till close) and I never got to go on .When we got back to the hotel we had watched some TV for about an hour or 2 then we had some lunch. After lunch my family rented a motor boat and we all went for a nice ride around the place. We than went back to the room and my father and I decided to go back to downtown Disney and did some more shopping. after that we went buy bus (late) to Disney-MGM studios because we had reservations at the Hollywood and Vine buffet (was to be the great 50's Prime Time Cafe but was not include in the Fantasmic! package. As we were waiting to be sited we watched most of the Disney Stars and Motor Cars Parade which is one of the best daytime parades they have to offer. So anyway after I bout some awesome new clothes. As we waited for about 2 hours it was finally time. For the first time in years I got to see one of the most acilamed shows that Walt Disney World has....... I got to see Fantasmic! It was even better than I rebmered and that is VERY VERY good. After the show I got the soundtrack. Than I bout the Original poster of Mickey's Christmas Carol and we left. When we went back to the hotel and I swam for about 30-50 mins. than went back to the room to sleep.
