They did it last year for some of the nights they stayed open late for pass holders. -

whoa they are open on that first Sunday. It looks like whomever rents the park out picked Friday instead -
We used to have only one rule on our trips besides "don't be late" and that was "don't do anything stupid" which also pretty much encompases what you said. By the time we stopped doing trips, we had to have a list of about 25 rules, every single one of them created due to some stupid obnoxious thing someone did on our tours. I just couldn't take it anymore... ) I am curious to see the list of rules if you have it saved some where.

I enjoyed the one event I went to (Banshee Bash) there were a lot of people and the Alveys worked hard. I have talked with Robb in person a couple times and he was indeed friendly in person. I have had disagreements with Robb on here a couple of times and while it was a bit frustrating and somewhat amusing to me at the time I can also take a step back and see why he flies off the handle from time to time and curses people out. With any hobby and especially a site with this many members you're going to see a good amount of trolls and shit posting It would be frustrating to me and I am sure I would get annoyed with it too. As far as tours go, I don't blame the Alvey's for giving up on that venture as it was clearly making something that is supposed to be enjoyable not be at all.

I am hoping to get him on Buzz first thing and maybe ride it a couple times if we can maybe later in the day. He has been talking about it non stop. We have to watch the video of that ride every day when I get home. -

We are only going to the one park and don't plan on missing the fireworks. I did Peter Pan at 10:40 Winnie the Pooh at 11:55 Seven Dwarfs at 1:40 (earliest time they had) -

I can do my Fastpasses tomorrow. I'm going to do seven dwarves. What two others should I choose that have slow moving lines. Winnie the Pooh and Peter Pan? Does the Buzz Lighthear ride move people through quickly? That's the one my boy is most excited about I'm wondering if I should use one on that instead -

Wicked Twister is one of my favorites especially a back seat ride getting thrown around that twist with such force. Too bad I got too fat for it. Wicked Twister is not fluffy friendly at all. -

You'll really like Shades, I won't stay anywhere else on property (unless I get a ridiculous deal). It's not overly-Disney, moreso an upscale resort with hints of Disney around. Some people don't like this but I've never had a problem. There are bigger and more ornate resorts but Shades has an x-factor that I've not found anywhere else. Also, the busses run regularly and are rarely crowded, since it's a smaller resort. I hope you enjoy your stay! Thank you for the bus info, only other question I have on that is how close do they drop off to Magic Kingdom and is it easy to get a bus back mid day/end of day or do I need to call to schedule one? -

I'm not sure why everyone got so excited for the shed, common sense says its a small show or visual of some sort. The real attraction is the coaster not the storage shed they had worked up. -

Magic Kingdom tickets purchased. I can't wait my boy is overly excited and keeps watching youtube videos of the park. It wasn't until this morning that I noticed they have a Buzz lightyear ride which made me real happy because he stumbled across one of the TPR japan videos and watching the Toy Story ride he was flipping out. -
I am two away from finishing the originals that were available in the US Lapras and Aerodactyl. I finally got a Dragonite after evolving a 100% iv Dratini. It came with Hyper Beam i was very happy. So far the babies I have are Pichu, Igglybuff, and Magby. The Santa Pikachu is everywhere here and if you evolve one of the ones with a hat it will keep it as Raichu.

What's there to dig deeper into? they do ride checks daily and the rides have tons of sensors that will alert them to something wrong. so to me you're either dealing with a person that's just a pansy about rides or a troll that for some reason thinks it is funny to post things like this. You can't honestly expect a park to follow up on every single complaint of them being scared or not liking a ride. -

But what you can do is go in informed that hey this ride has a good chance of being closed you have been warned. the tech rehearsal was exactly that they were letting you know there is a chance of it being open but it is likely to be closed. Also for anyone who frequents forums like this or calls themselves an enthusiast they should know better in a rides first year and use caution. -

Lightning Rod was far from a Disappointment to me. on a day where I paid full gate price for my wife and I we only rode two coasters and the river battle ride on an unbearably hot day. I got one single ride in the back seat of Lightning Rod and my mind was blown. I didn't feel as if money was wasted despite only being there a couple of hours and getting so few rides in and it was only because of LR. I know I was fortunate. I had one day and one shot all summer to make it happen and it worked out. -

back on topic peasants! I am curious if they do the whole parent swap thing and if like I ride with my 3 year old while my wife waits with the one year old would my wife and I be able to swap spots effectively letting my 3 year old ride twice while getting all of us a chance to ride? -
