They changed it around May 5th.

Well, then, next time I go to DL I'll have to bring my own soundtrack. Or maybe not--I rarely go on the carrousel.

Another of my confessions: I don't care for Mickey's Philharmagic.

I've never ridden Autopia and probably never will.

I like DCA.

I'm so not into anything Princess. Give me a good villain any day!

I haven't ridden Splash Mountain in a very long time. I hate being wet.

I know very little about anything Disney does in the movie side.

I think Pooh and Friends are WAY too over-marketed. I'd like to see much less of them so I can actually like them again.

I get a bit ill on Star Tours, so I don't like to ride it.

I really miss Captain EO and wish they'd bring it back.

I love looking to the side and backwards while riding coasters, especially Big Thunder. Makes everything seem faster and unexpected. The goat trick is a cool version of this. The force of the turn makes it thrilling.

I hated the Country Bears, and was bored by the People Mover as a kid. I always say those in these threads.

I have little interest in spending a huge wad on a trip to Florida. I'd rather go elsewhere. Even after going to DLP, I have only minor interest in WDW. I'd go to Tokyo sooner.

I hate Eisner with a passion but I hope he gets the credit he's due for his amazing work in the 80's and early 90's.

I love McDonald's fries and sometimes wish I could stop and buy some from the Westward Ho/Fowlers without everyone ripping me apart, which I know would be inevitable. I've never dared to do so. Maybe a certain person I know that turned down a job at DCA had a similar point of view...

Ha! I thought I was the only one who did that! I love looking at the side on Space Mtn.

I share your feeling about WDW. I love Epcot but could do without the rest. Part of that is the weather. I HATE FLorida weather with a passion.

That's my number one reason why I made the conscious decision to not go to WDW while I lived on the East Coast. Hell, I've barely even done the DC tour! I hate the weather here, too! :-)

I find myself walking around the resort trying to figure out how to make it into a MA type puzzle...or looking for eye-spy's...

I don't love a parade

I'm with you on the French Fries, CP. I personally don't care that McDonald's has a presence in the park and must admit that having never eaten them is a rare of instance of me cravenly caving to peer pressure.

For me it is interesting how my perception of the parks has changed because of MousePlanet. For me, Disneyland is almost completely synonomous with "work" while Walt Disney World is still synonymous with "vacation." For that reason, my preference tilts slightly towards Florida.
