Hi guys,

Got back from the Netherlands yesterday and have tonsillitus, so yesterday was spent largely sleeping. Thought I would jump back on the games (by the way, if you think Fantasyland is magical, I urge you to skip a trip to DLP and try Efteling in the Netherlands. While not Disney, it has it's own magic - I will do photos and a trip report if people are interested). Back on topic:

1. Have you ever visted on your own - Not fully, I have spent 5 hours in the park by myself when the little ones were babies and my wife was tired. 0.5?
2. Have you had a character meal - yes, several
3. Have you had a character meal.......without children! - yes, several (my wife used to like them).
4. Have you ever been evacuated from a ride - yes, Pirates of the Caribbean
5. Do you have a favourate restaurant table - Yes, California Grill - left corner window seat, Steakhouse - middle booth looking towards the bar area, Silver Spur - next to the show kitchen, middle table and Annettes, the last booth on the right hand side near the toilets.
6. Have you ever queued for more than 2 hours for a ride - Yes - Tower of Terror when it first opened, Space Mountain when it first opened.
7. Have you ever thrown up after a ride and if so which one - No
8. Have you ever been in the Phantom Manor stretch room when someone has passed wind - I don't think so
9. Have you ever queued for a ride and then chickened out at the last minute - No
10. Have you ever spent over 300 Euros on merchandise in one day - Yes, a few times, back when they had stuff worth buying (like our china).

Yes - 6.5 No 3.5
since 2001 (many before that)

1. Do you know most of the shortcuts around the park? Yes
2. Have you ever swam in a Disney Hotel pool? Yes, all of them. I find it amazing that the most expensive hotel has the worst pool (DLH) and yet the Sequoia and Davy Crockett are the cheapest options and have the best pool).
3. Have you ever been on Christmas Day or New Year's Eve? No, and never plan to, too crowded.
4. Have you ever used the services of a different Disney Hotel to the one that you were staying in? Yes - if bars, restaurants and shops count.
5. Have you ever seen the Statue of Liberty Tableau behind the curtains in the Liberty Arcade? Yes - we make it a point to stop by every trip.
6. Have you ever been to the Val d'Europe Shopping Centre? Yes, again, we go most trips, at least to the Auchan or for dinner at one of the many excellent restaurants.
7. Do you usually take more than 100 photos per day in the resort? Yes, even these days...
8. Have you ever stood in front of the large industrial fan behind Armageddon? Yes, All the time
9. Have you ever been on one of the boats at Lake Disney? Yes
10. Did you ever do "Good Morning Fantasyland" before it was replaced by the Extra Magic Hours? Yes, as well as the proper EMH in the early years when THE WHOLE PARK used to be open to hotel guests.

Yes = 9, No = 1
