Confession # 12: I Like It

The WDW monorail train that travels between TTC and Epcot looks different  these days:

Although it's a giant advertisement for Disney's remake of TRON, I like it. The colors, anyway.

And as for the criticism (“Never thought I’d see the day that Disney would bus-wrap their monorails to advertise for a movie”, etc), well, hello, have you been in a Disney store lately? A majority of Disney merchandise relates directly to Disney movies or TV shows.

Tired of Mickey and Shamu?

Try one of these:

10 Weirdest Theme Parks


Bob-Bon Land with its farting roller coaster does sound different (hahaha).


And if you're more literary-minded, Dickens World might be right up your Dickensian Courtyard (alley).

Confession # 11: I Miss the Great Fright Way

The Ghostbusters vs Beetlejuice was my favorite street show over at Universal Studios until February 19, 2005, when it was closed after a 15-year run.


In every on-line survey I've taken for Universal Orlando, I've mentioned how much I miss these guys.

I'm not the only one. There is an on-line petition   to bring this show back.

Dollywood's Newest

celebrates its 25th anniversary this year and to celebrate, will open a brand-new attraction,  Adventure Mountain

Regarding the physically-challenging course(s), Dolly said, "It's not set up for high heels ... and the artificial nails ... I could lose so many things."

Gotta love Dolly.
