LOL you goober. Puns aside, it is true -- though I AM going to the Nemo meet on the 24th as my last hurrah before my pass expires on the 26th.

I'm just so burnt out on it (the thought of braving the parking structure and trams just one more time makes me a little queasy). Plus I get to see all you lovely LOTters outside of our natural habitat, which makes for more interesting times.

Well, I didn't expect to ride this today - I was down for a job interview and stopped by - I asked a CM in front of the subs if this was the AP preview and she said yes then asked me if I had one - which I showed to her and she said go ahead. Then I rode it 11 times - the last couple with Kevybaby, GusGus, Disneyphile and Froto - and then several times with the MIA DisneyDaniel.

I'll refrain my review but it gets an E-ticket from Bornieo!

Yes!

So, is anyone (AP walk-ups) getting on the ride today?

Chernabog · 06-09-2007, 01:14 AM

^^ Any guest was allowed on the ride today. The waits were about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. BUT they closed it at night for maintenance.

1 hour wait means "just starting to curve around the lagoon on the matterhorn side". They have lines set up to go all the way around the lagoon, past the (former) smoking area, through the motorboat cruise load area, and switchbacks completely into small world mall. (!!!)

While I enjoyed the ride (though, seriously, why the cave part had to be underwater at all boggles me) I do not think it is worth any more than an hour or two wait, at absolute max.

Yes, any more than 1 hour would be dissapointing, IMHO. After the summer rush, when you can get on with a 20 minute or less wait, I'll go on a few more times.

Still, the biggest draw to me is the nostalgia. If a family with young kids into Nemo go on, they may enjoy it even more.

I think I shall ride with the group on the 24th then probably not again unless the lines are much shorter.

Although all three of my rides have been on the starboard side. I would like to ride port just once!

BTW- did anyone notice the flotation devices behind the seats? Just in case the sub sinks!

Ya, I saw those. They would make great seat cushions.
