I should write down the monorail colour preferences so I can post an entire dedicated section next trip. -

Cedar Point Tour Book 1969

^^That is AWESOME. I love live music in non-rock/non-screaming venues. Does the Golden Palace still have a live player? -

What I wouldn't give to see a honky-tonk piano/vaudeville act in an amusement park... -
A BRIEF and TERRIBLE Photo TR From Hong Kong & Japan
dandaman replied to Wes's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
^It's completely different! There's no Sean-Connery-fire-breathing-dragon theme element ANYWHERE!* Though the Mr. Roboto laser show is slightly plausible... *Fun fact: Godzilla was used as a stand-in for the Japanese version of the fair. -

^Maybe Pat Morita made a recent stop in Japan. -
Y'know, I always thought an upcharge theme park could fit nicely within St. Peter's Square...

^ I think it's Eagles' Fortress from South Korea. Is 2 years considered old enough for a woman to start lying about her age? -

...Okay, clarification. Can my steampunk B-reality look like this? "Where we're going, we won't need horses." -
I do wonder if the Food and Wine Fest was moved back a few months... P.S. Even I knew there was a microbrewery on-property.

Regarding Mexico, it happened rather recently... http://forums.wdwmagic.com/showthread.php?t=401729 Oh, and frickin' awesome ROE shot! This segment especially gets the D.S.B.B.S.S. Seal of Approval.

Mini Photo TR: A Snowy Day in Williamsburg, Va.
dandaman replied to cfc's topic in Random, Random, Random
I love Colonial... stuff. Greenfield Village is about an hour away from me and I've many a childhood memory with that place ('specially the steam train!) I desperately need to travel more... Williamsburg looks absolutely beautiful in the light snow. -

I do know a lot of people who get tired of Epcot easily... invariably their response is "not enough thrill rides". My basic rule for park-going is to appreciate it for what it's trying to be (i.e. CP= thrills using sheer height/speed, Disney= thrills using technical wizardry); I tell my friends that and then come the "Well, I guess SSE was kinda cool..." comments. -

If I lived closer to you guys, I would so freakin' do that steampunk thing. Dan "Is the name 'Doctor Reginald Wexley' taken?" Smith -
Who the hell would want to do that?

I would have been passing by on I-4 going to Tampa at the same time you posted some of those photos. I still want to try Deep-Fried Oreos, but Deep-Fried Pepsi just sounds wrong. (Hell, I don't even like cola in its "natural" form!) -

Believe it or not, it's a Canon Powershot A550... so yeah, it's a point-and-shoot. This is one $150 investment that's gone a long long way for me. The macro zoom ("background blur") is hard to fine-tune sometimes but it does its job well.
