Re: Be Our Guest will serve beer and wine...

I've been going to WDW long enough to remember that the exit from Country Bears led directly into the Mile Long Bar. Mirrors at each end forced the illusion of a REALLY long bar, but, no alchohol served. Just root beer and other soft drinks and snacks. I am all for Sunshine Tree Terrace selling a fr...

Re: Closing the Park. What guests do.

This happened a few trips ago. Sat down to an ADR dinner at Brown Derby. Didn't ever feel rushed during the meal. After dinner went outside and thought the park was REALLY empty.

Re: Saw this today at the MGM

Mouse Surplus giant ATAT on tv tonight.

It's a part of tonight's Shipping Wars episode on A & E. I saw it down in Haines City a few years ago with the head and front blasters operating. I didn't think the base price was unreasonable for what it is, but when we thought about what shipping would cost and the fact that it would take up o...

Re: Fastpass changes???

The problem is that currently if it does not involve Safety and a front line CM correctly says "no" they are usually overturned by someone higher to "keep the guest happy" "No" needs to be backed up with "no" and "no", not "Sorry our following o...
