I believe that it was in Injun Joe’s cave that I first smelled the pungent aroma of what I would later learn was marijuana. I have also encountered it in line for the Haunted Mansion and in Monsanto’s Journey Throught Inner Space. One late night friends and I were preparing to board our boat at Pirates of the Carribean; but the party that got out of the arriving boat were escorted through a suddenly-not-hidden door by two men with pot belly’s in suits with big plastic ID’s. We all look aghast at the ride operator, a teen guy who says “Please keep your hands and feet inside the ride at all times.” (Soto voce with doobie gesture to lips) _“and no screwin’ around.”_

No question. I could ride **Peter Pan’s Flight** all day long. It actually does feel like you’re flying over London.

::sigh::

I can’t believe nobody’s said Eastern Airlines’ “If You Had Wings” yet. It used to be one of the only “free” rides back when you needed a ticket per ride. (There was a sort-of parody of it in the recent Simpson’s episode where they went to Epcot.)

Great labor-of-love website about it:

“If You Had Wings” is what I was referring to when I mentioned the WEDWAY.

My mom and I go to DW together every year - the last two years we went twice - May and December - and it is a different experience at the different times of year. This year I’m going with my cousins at the end of April - 3 single women, out to have a good time! Woo!

As for favorites - I have a weakness for so many, I don’t think I have a favorite. Mom’s favorite is Thunder Mountain, which I like too. I miss original Imagination - haven’t seen the latest version, but did see the one before and hated it!

As for hotels - we always stay at the Boardwalk Inn or the Animal Kingdom Lodge. Boardwalk is very convenient to Epcot, which is where we spend a lot of our time, and it also has the boardwalk available. AKL is fun because you really do get to see the animals fairly close, plus it has a great gift shop, and good restaurants. Go to Boma for their buffet - it’s really, really good.
