Oh the Tower of Terror freaks me out! I hate not knowing how many times or when you're going to drop!! Aerosmith coaster is good. I could totally do without the Mad Tea Cups! [smilie=puking.gif]

The only thing we have on our TV the entire time we're at Disney is the Stacey Channel! When I read "Summit Plummet" the only thing I could think of was Stacey saying "Summit....Plummet," and doing some funky hand movements. hee hee!

We are back! As we were getting off the boat ride in The Land, we were chosen for the special Year of a Millon Dreams Mouse Ears. We were hoping for the Fast Passes, but Ears will do! Test Track was down almost all day, then our group got stuck on it. Viewed the Fireworks from the Disney 52' Yacht again- always a magical time. Lines were insane!!! We always go for Easter without many long lines, but Easter and Spring Training together just didn't work.

196 and still counting.

With April 1 arriving yesterday, the October calendar with park hours were supposed to be out. As of about an hour ago, only 2 parks had the October hours listed. I'm hoping they come soon--need to do more planning before April 18 as that is the 180 day mark to make ADRs.

Glad that those of you who've had recent trips had such good times. Cannot even wait to go back to WDW as it has been seven years since my last trip.

Lots and lots and lots of Vitamin C, hand gel and anything else to keep yourself healthy. They don't call it The Happiest Petri Dish on Earth for nothing. I've had the Disney Flu one too many times. :oops:

Ugh. I don't eat the food at the parks unless it's at The Living Seas or The Rose and Crown. I'll eat on property at the restaurants (Raglan Road is awesome), but not in the parks. Blech.

It's more that people will take their infected kids, who sneeze all over you while in line. We witnessed the same thing this week in Gatlinburg from the couple whose 6-year-old had a wet, croupy cough, bright red cheeks and was listless. By God, they were *not* going to let the flu get in the way of *their* vacation.

People carry bugs that other people from other parts of the country, and world, haven't been exposed to, so you get their funk. I'm usually sick by the 5th day in Orlando, and I don't get sick easily. That said, I still love Disney, if I go when the crowds are low. I prefer January and early November.
