This is a sad day ... kinda like the Day The Music Died.

Originally Posted By Fluppydogs 10.Welch’s Grape Juice Bar- Why would I want or miss something that I can get at home.

IMO 8.EPCOT World Festival of Kites- Wow you must be really old. If Disney announced today that Epcot was going to have a Kite Festival this place would have a post of what a bad idea that would be. Kites I did not know that they were still being made. I can not get this image out of my head of me asking my kids to turn off their computers and Ipods so I could take them out and fly a kite...the looks I would get would be hilarious. 7.Daytime Shows at EPCOT – Never seen one except for the parade for 2000. That was cool but we would skip it half the time. 6. A Song I Can Sing from an Attraction – Most of the attraction music is annoying and sticks in your head for days.IMO. I like the music from there movies better...the music from Enchanted was great. 5.Michael Iceberg – I watched him on youtube and he kind of scares me.IMO 4.Beastly Kingdom, 2.An Extended Monorail Track- I put these two together because they never where...so how can you not see them again. 3.Disney’s Hollywood Studios Will Find Itself- TOT, RnRC, Stunt Show, American Idol some of my families favorites...we love the studios...Star Wars weekends, ESPN..the place is great. 1. An Attraction With More Than A Couple of AA Figures – AA Figures are overrated. IMO. They have thier place like in HOP (and all our get out of the heat and take a 20 minute nap places)...but I would not have them waste their time on AAs when they can build more Attractions like Soarin, Mission Space, TOT, Test Track, Everest. Keep bring the coasters and thrills.IMO

All those crazy thrill rides with the loops and screaming???? I think not. I'd much prefer Disney to stick to their tried and true formula of family friendly rides!

Now everytime I visit and walk along the water's edge I envision that moment of Disney Magic at Epcot...and wish it would reappear. p.s. next March when the wind is blowing go fly a kite.

Recently 2 different persons commented that they were logging an average of 9 miles a day at WDW.< Our trips to WDW are fun but exhausting. Most times we need a vacation after our vacation. I do cardio three times a week..but something about walking outside in the fresh air and heat at WDW that just exhaust you.
Originally Posted By danyoung >A kite festival in Epcot would make you want to visit?< For the most part, the special events like a kite festival don't influence me to visit. The exception is the Food & Wine Festival, which I dearly love. But I used to love flying kites, and would enjoy seeing hundreds or thousands of them flying around the World Showcase Lagoon. I don't have any kids, though, so I can't imagine how hard it would be for them to leave the ipods and Nintendos behind.

These attractions are fine for families with older children if of course they like that kind of thing. My kids are grown but my grands won't be ready for rides like that for a long time. My youngest in fact hated thrill rides till she was older. The thing about thrill rides is that they are accessible anywhere. Maybe not with the theme aspect but lets face it real thrill junkies don't really care about the theme. The very thing that made Disney were the 'themed attractions' not the thrill rides. They have their place but I assure you I wouldn't travel that far & spend that much for thrill rides even as interesting as the ones you mentioned. It's good that that is what your family likes but not everyone wants or are able to ride those types of rides. I know that when your kids get to a certain age they tend to be thrill seekers actually I think a few are born that way but I hope the parks try to remember that 'family' encompasses a wide spectrum. Everyone is different that's what makes life interesting.

There have not been many built in the last 10 years and there are not many on the drawing boards either. Sure, I like ToT, Soaring and Test Track, but not at the expense at time away from my little ones. Yet we all love Haunted Mansion, Potc and Jungle Cruise.
