teddogThat's the sound my brain is making.
Durr...
There it goes again. I didn't have a good day at all. Thus the noises.
Durr...
Mom and I were trying to figure out the plans in case of a strike. I might fly home on the 8th of March if the strike goes.
Jen's asking for me to bring home DVDs. Mostly my MST3K and Buckaroo Banzai. Oh, and my copy of the Hitchhiker's Trilogy. We were on the phone for an hour discussing Spring break. Seven days of peace, love and pizza rolls. I already know the hotel we're staying at and the planned parks. I love the fact my dad is an old school Disney fan. ::dances::
Run in fear as Rachelle Banzai and Perfect Jenny invade Central Flordia.
I'm not sure if we're visiting Universal Studios or Islands of Adventure. Me is split on them. IoA means more coasters, but US means a chance to show Katie who John Connor is and why he has a slingshot. (inside joke).
We are going to Epcot again, FINALLY. Now I get to see just how much Eisner spit on it. Epcot: Home of the world's most expensive Spin-N-Puke. Meh, I'll finally get on Test Track. I demand that we visit both the Canada display and Innoventions so I can screw with the cast members' heads.
The Wonders of Life pavilion, Carousel of Progress and The Timekeeper all operate "seasonally" now. Dang. Because it's a Spring Break I hope they'll be open. I haven't visited The Wonders of Life in ages and I love The Timekeeper. It's so bizarre. CoP is give or take depending on my mood. Alien Encounter has been an officially dead ride since last year. No real loss. Problem is that takes out a large chunk of the Tomorrowland rides. ::sigh::
And huuuuge thanks to the folks over at The Sound of Magic for posting the Space Mountian musical tracks. Even though it's a very small coaster, I love that ride to little bits. They even have the boarding warning from Star Tours. That's so... bwhahahaha! I just wish they hadn't "watermarked" the mp3 of the exit music from The Timekeeper.
And Katie, they have a whole flipping page with Haunted Mansion music (from the ride, not the movie... eww.), including the separate tracks for each character set in the graveyard scene. Coolness.
They didn't have "Hidden Pathways", though. I can never win them all.

Date: 2004-02-20 02:28 pm (UTC)Thank you for the operating times for seasonal attractions.
My main interest in Test Track isn't for the thrill. I've been on so many different rollercoasters (currently my count is 70 something) that the "thrill" factor people get from simpler rides... well... it's not there for me.
I'm more interested in the technical side of things. I want to see the track layout, the vehicle design, etc first hand. All Test Track really is is a dark ride on speed.
I totally forgot about the changes to Spaceship Earth. I've heard about the new voice track, but it was from secondhand information. Stupid park guests, although I've heard rumours that Spaceship Earth's days are limited to start with.

Mom's a disnyholic, if that explains anything.
