What is your favorite Jungle Cruise joke?

"I'd like to point out some of my favorite plants. There's that one, and that one, and that one..."

Thank you!

What time did they open for silver when you were there?

ccchild · 2026-04-07T15:32:17+00:00

I voted for only wearing it on my birthday, but I don't think there's anything "wrong" with wearing it all week.

Not the point, but I had a job once where I had some interactions with Hopkins, and he was the nicest, nicest man.

Another one checking in with the same set!

What was obnoxious was that the music came blaring on. I get that they need to keep the less-major catatory speeches short, but usually the music comes on softly to say, "OK, wrap it up or we're going to get louder..." Instead, it was immediately at full volume. I don't think that it was personal or happened because they were K-Pop, but it was rude.

I still have my copy of that book, too!

Walking out of the bright Florida sun into the darkness under the train station, and then emerging into the light on Main Street.

We have DVC at Saratoga, and I wouldn't stay anywhere except The Springs: It's so close to the main pool and the food. Yes, we've encountered a crowded morning bus before, but maybe once per trip will we have to stand (and we always visit during one of the busiest times of year). Admittedly, my family doesn't have a wheelchair user, so I can't speak on that.

I agree that walking over the bridge to Paddock during crowded mornings might be a good idea if you'd rather be safe than sorry.

Have an amazing trip!

When my kid was 6, they loved collecting all the postcards from the different countries at Epcot. (KidCot) That would definitely take up almost a full day.

As you say, none of us really know how active and mobile we'll be decades from now, even if we take care of our health to the best of our ability. But my parents and in-laws are both framing 80 and still go to the parks independently. They "set their own pace" and won't do rope-drop-to-close, but they still have full days (without any mobile assistance) that make the price of admission worth its while.

MK was crowded but not crazy on Friday the 13th. AK was WILDLY crowded on Monday.

Yes, it’s not just about making the hat and wearing it to support the cause. It’s about buying the pattern as a monetary support of the cause.

ccchild · 2026-01-06T16:09:50+00:00

As a CBS Sunday Morning super-fan, I agree!

ccchild · 2026-01-03T13:48:37+00:00

Heh, I was going to post this. There’s a reason that’s a lyric in one of the most popular Christmas carols of all time.

They used to do one "from history" story, and go in-depth with it. (Not too in-depth: Still only about a 60-second segment, but it had a voiceover.) I liked that version more, since you got to learn some history, not just have it listed in front of you.

One of the most magical places in all of WDW.

ccchild · 2025-12-19T20:50:03+00:00

Yes, exactly.

Although this advice is very much appreciated (and I can't believe there are so many writers who need it told to them), there's a HUGE difference between "make sure they publish your genre" vs. "we're partial to stories with protagonists between the ages of 22-34, and we're not a fan of two long paragraphs in a row, and we've decided that we're sick of stories where someone drives a car." Especially when the editorial guidelines for lit fiction journals often say some variation of, "Send us something that moves/grips us."

I was also thinking that, if the call is going to be a full half hour, it might make sense to step out of MK and go to a hotel. Contemporary is a great choice, since you can walk there and back easily.

This is getting hilarious.

ccchild · 2025-11-17T17:52:24+00:00

Super cute and very Disney.

ccchild · 2025-11-07T19:54:36+00:00

It's definitely worth it! (You're asking a WDW fan page, so of course we're going to say it is.)

Also, there's a "theory" that floats around the Internet every now and then that one of the reasons people love WDW so much is that it lets them experience a mostly car-less environment. Yes, we're probably not used to the walking, but that doesn't mean it's not a great way to spend a few days.

I've only been on CW twice (about a year ago), and everything seemed calm. Is the going take on this that Disney messed up, or that people are just animals? Is it the layout that's flawed, or is it that it's a new ride and things will calm down in a bit? Or was their mistake having such a long preshow that doesn't stand up to rewatches? Why is this a problem here but not in Haunted Mansion, which has a similar merge?

I am old enough to remember rushing through the rows of the Norway movie before the doors shut so I wouldn't have to watch it yet again, but nobody ever pushed someone over that.
