I like how the projector is still turned on for that effect with nothing displaying on it.

Theoretically, the load area could be moved, but that would be a real journey into your imagination...

FYI, they actually do have handouts now that have all the meals included listed and an explanation of each of the three dining plans. Not 100% sure where all they're available, but the ticket windows and Help Center should have them.

I used to have a WDW/Disneyland picture book that showed the bubble top monorails. I thought they were REALLY cool. It also had Adventures Thru Inner Space and other awesome retired attractions. Oh, the money I'd pay for admission to a Yesterland park, featuring the old monorails, ATIS, Horizons, Future World circa 1996 (things like I remember growing up but with World of Motion still open!), El Rio De Tiempo, Mr. Toad, Monster Sound Show, Take Flight!, Millennium Village, and maybe even the original Dinosaur Jubilee tent from AK (hey, some of us liked that!).

Does it have that patented Disney monorail smell? Because I really want them to make an air freshener of that. Or lorange scent.

Exactly what it says on the handout- taco salad, burrito, 2 tacos, or burrito bowl and chips and salsa, guacamole, or queso dip. We did have to ask for the chips and salsa but that was probably because we didn't remember to mention we had the dining plan. It's a really good amount of food, too.

Aaaaaand apparently I wasn't paying that much attention since thankfully we didn't have the DDP when we went to Disney a few years ago (I can't picture trying to decide where I want to eat months or advance or hoping that a restaurant has a spot open... we were there during the busy season). I could swear I remember things not being included with it (thus the servers always asking "Are you on the dining plan?"), but apparently it's changed or something. I just hope the KI dining plans don't lead to the food experience changing like it did at Disney (which admittedly is a correlation/causation thing, but it does seem like the restaurants changed after DDP and especially free dining were introduced)- I was seriously impressed seeing the portions at Hank's and I'd hate for that to change.

Disney's seems quite complicated, judging from their website... https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/vacation-packages/2014/dining/ And not everything is included, at least not as a snack credit.

They actually do have the meals you can get marked on the menu- it's the small dining plan logo that's on the flyer (by the part that says "Look for the Dining Plan symbol at participating locations throughout the park!"). The people working at Hank's yesterday were pretty knowledgable about what was included, if they don't know for sure if something is or not they should be able to check and find out for you.

Any ticket window does the parking refunds, but as long as your voucher hasn't been scanned at the tolls already once it should work.

Aww, I was hoping it'd be the dancing cats. Or Fred Flintstone dancing with a carrot. ¿Por que no los dos?

I love the upbeat music it plays during the weather forecast. I wonder if it plays sad music when it's raining? (kidding...)

Judging from the logo, FUNtv looks right. This video was on in line for Boo Blasters today. The crowd thought it was quite... odd, to say the least.

Getting rid of the real Fastpasses affects me.

That could be because they're REALLY pushing scheduling them in advance, though. It's easy to use statistics to your advantage to make a billion dollar investment look good. Imagine if they had instead spent that much money to improve the parks to Tokyo Disney standards. I do like the idea of MagicBands, having admission/dining/FP combined into the wristband, but I don't want to have to schedule my vacation in advance. I guess I prefer being more spur-of-the-moment.

1. Yes, they'll scan your pass at the toll plaza. On the first visit when you get it processed, they'll scan the season pass voucher. 2. Yes. As far as I know, they include the perks at all the parks.

To be fair, there's a difference between being given extra change or whatever and getting an extra item at McD's- the food has to be thrown out even if you returned it.

Parking was $12/$20 for regular/preferred in 2012, $12/$20 and $15/$22 on Saturdays in 2013. Seems to be the same this season.

It's also worth noting that it looks like the food registers are running on a totally new system this year, which would add to some confusion.

NO drinks included with the all-season plan. This is on all the literature and the website.

https://store.accesso.com/CF-KI/orderLookup It needs the email address and phone number used for the order.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mission:_Space#Controversy At least Horizons never killed anyone. Should a ride really need that many warning signs?

We've already hit the point of rides being too intense for people, just look at Mission: SPACE. I don't really want to ride something that has a body count.

Oh, Rocket Rods...

I wish they played the DS9 theme, it'd work really well on WS.
