Actually did a lot of different things in the parks too, tat we usually miss. Did do park opening, however, but didn't stay TOO late.

And the pub is one of the rowdiest places at EPCOT. You gotta expect some of that. They're there to drink 'and have a good time' not trade pins or vinyl. Not real surprised the 'MK dance party' sucks. I'd be surprised if it didn't. What few here likely recall is a time when MK had plenty of live entertainment ... bands ... performers ... during summer. They didn't have to dumb it down to a Walmart level. Not surprised EPCOT looks good. Flower and Garden residual likely. It looked great last month. Also not surprised about the poor MK show quality. And I am surprised the CMs you spoke to about the dirt on SSE didn't look at you like you were ... ah .. uh .. uhm ... special!<<< Oh, I know about the bar. But there's a level of rowdiness that just isn't right. And rudeness. I wasn't shocked about the dance party, either, but this was just over the top. And the CMs were so bored with life, that they basically ignored me and the issue. Glad you enjoyed Part II...Part III will be up tomorrow...or Thursday. I start classes tomorrow. :-(

Differences of opinion over theme parks wouldn;t be one. That said, I can question your or anyone's tastes (and do) ... that's the nature of life and being a mean, nasty opinionated Spirit! If we were on a MAGICal site and you were one of my fans, I'd tell you to grow a pair and stop smoking the pixie dust pipe. But since we're not and I know you have a (pretty good) brain in your head, I won't! ;-)<<< Guys, guys, of course I know you are not attacking. You should all know me by now...Heated discussions is what I like. I'm not upset in anyway. Just stating my opinion! :-D

I focus on those usually myself because 1.) well, much of WDW is tired and stale; and 2.) everyone else in the world will talk about construction walls in F-land or a new exhibit in Innoventions, but most won't tell you about changes at the BW, Poly or PoP! <<Did do park opening, however, but didn't stay TOO late.>> You clearly are a morning spirit, EE. I want to close down the parks most nights, but that's because I don't tend to spend day hours in them (in Otown that is ... Anaheim, Paris, HK completely different way of touring).

Seating limited.>> I'd love to join ya. But I can't make any plans now at all, I am day-to-day right now. Had to cancel my last-minute Anaheim trip and am trying to figure out when I can do that. May be mid-late July. I also just accepted a work gig on the weekend of July 23-24-25 (one that I would dump to head to LA, but not a day in O-Town). But I REALLY would love to do Potter for the first time with you guys ... so ... stay in touch ...

However, all up to Mr. Self.

Originally Posted By Spirit of 74 ^^It would, but I know I can't do it on the weekend. Could do it the Monday after or the next weekend (last weekend in July) IF I don't wind up in Anaheim that time. But right now my life isn't in my own hands ...
