Re: Starting to put list together... what are some of your MUST??

Hmmmm....

MK - I just posted on the Philharmagic post - this is a MUST for us now! Also, Pirates is our first stop at MK - my kids love it the most for some reason!

Epcot - Test Track is our only must do there - I'm not a huge Epcot fan, I know I will be someday, just not quite yet!

AK - Breakfastsaurus is a Must Do for us.

MGM - my one and only, absolute favorite ride ever - Tower of Terror!! I also love taking the kids to the Playhouse Disney show - the little guys really get into it.

Re: Starting to put list together... what are some of your MUST??

OK, how about off the beaten path?
MK - rope drop ceremony
MK - someone in your party should get a haircut at the barber shop. I think we're pretty close to making that a tradition
MK - There are some sites somewhere (I'll see if I can find them) that have tricks to get a lot of extra points on Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin. If you do it right, you can score all 9's
Monorail - ask to ride up front.
Epcot - Ron, have you considered surprising DW with the rehitching ceremony at either the Ice Cream Social or at a meal at the Garden Grille at The Land?
Epcot - try to catch the fountain show. I'm not sure what the schedule is, but I think it's very cool.
MGM - I've never done them, but I've been told that both The Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid shows are quite good.

Buzz Lightyear hints:

I know there's more, but Deb's site actually has some of the better hints.

Re: Starting to put list together... what are some of your MUST??

Here it is:

MGM = RnR, TOT, Muppets 3D, Voyage of the little Mermaid, The great movie ride.....cheesy lines and all

MK = (in no certain order) Pooh, Peter Pan, Phillarmagic, Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, Small world (for my DD I can't stand that one), COP and other DD favorite.

AK: Safari, bugs and that it's

Epcot: Journey into your Imagination, Honey I shrunk the Audience, Test Track, Mission Space for DD, and the entire world showcase

These are my favorites and things I hit every trip. I like many more attractions, but won't cry if I don't get on them. Other must-do's are the parades and shows, but I have been known to miss a few of them too on a trip.

Re: Starting to put list together... what are some of your MUST??

Here's mine:
MK Splash Mountain, Pirates, Tiki Room (I know, I know-- but I like it) Haunted Mansion, Buzz, Peter Pan
AK Kali River, Bug's Life, Safari
I am looking forward to trying a lot of the things that people have been talking about on this site. Most of all the Philharmagic, "rope drop", etc.

Re: Starting to put list together... what are some of your MUST??

Here's my list:

MK: Just about everything is a must here -- Space Mtn., Splash Mtn., BTMR, Haunted Mansion, Buzz Lightyear, Winnie the Pooh, Philharmagic, Carousel of Progress, Toon Town (Mickey's and Minnie's country houses), Peter Pan, shopping on main street!, Wishes!!!, the People Mover (or whatever it's called now), and the Share a Dream Come True Parade!

Epcot: This is my favorite park -- Spaceship Earth (definitely a must!), Test Track, Mission Space, Imagination, and everything in the World Showcase (especially the Stave Church in Norway, the Japan "department store," Mexico!, the Rose and Crown restaurant and pub in the UK, and the beautiful gallery in Morocco), and Illuminations.

MGM: Rock n Roller Coaster!

AK: Kali River Rapids, Kilimanjaro Safaris, Maharaja Jungle Trek, and just giving yourself time to soak up the atmosphere -- this is such a beautiful park!

Re: Starting to put list together... what are some of your MUST??

EC -- TT, S:E, Illuminations
MGM -- RnRC, ToT, GMR, Indiana Jones
AK -- Dinosaur, Kilmanjaro, KRR
MK -- SplashM, PoC, BTMRR, SpaceM
Have fun! And remember, the best magic of all is the stuff you don't plan! A sudden great seat at a parade, a really short FP line, a special greeting from a CM, a sudden character appearance, a towel creature in your room, the smell of the flowers at Epcot, Mickey-shaped pancakes, etc... the magic is EVERYWHERE!

Re: Starting to put list together... what are some of your MUST??

Since I know your girls are around Emilie's age I'll give you her must do list:

MK - Carousel, Buzz Lightyear, Dumbo ( Well actually all of Fantasy Land!)
Epcot - She's not really into Epcot but she liked meeting characters and Living Seas
MGM - Voyage of the Little Mermaid, Playhouse Disney, Sci-Fi Drive In ( she is begging us to eat there again in October 2005)
AK - Safari, Tricertop spin, Festival of the Lion King

And her all time favorite and a MUST DO for her bday trip is breakfast at the Castle!!!!! If we don't do this again it will just crush her.
