Fun fact - we had a book of fairy tales when I was little, with the original stories.  The wolf ate grandma, the woodsman took his axe & split the wolf in half & out sprang grandma fully intact.  I never questioned it....
 
 
Lazy river/wave pool or
 
Get me on the tallest, fastest rides at the water park or 
 
Think I'll pass on the waterpark & stick with the hotel pool. |

				Fast pass:  Living with the Land - Soarin’ is right there too, really long break if you need it!
 
Standby:  Gran Fiesta Tour - means we’re either about to or have just finished a wonderful meal at San Angel.
 
Skip:  Under the Sea with Nemo - neat attraction, but the inclusion of the characters seems an afterthought.  They deserve more.
 
 
 
Should the Muppets “take over” Epcot attraction narrations for a day…
 
 
Spaceship Earth (with constant video on the ride vehicle monitor)
 
Living with the Land (w/ temporary video screens put at the front of each boat)
 
Mission: Space (including the pre ride video) |

Standby: Spaceship Earth
 
Skip: Living with the Land.
 
 
Honestly,  Muppets can take over anything & it would be better.
 
Also, mixing companies, but the Minions taking over Spaceship Earth would be hysterical.
 
 
Surprises you that this hasn't happened yet - 
 
Parking lot trams at every park
 
Tomorrowland Speedway cars changed to vehicles not using gas
 
Disney figuring out how to run its buses more efficiently |

				Fast pass:  I Wanna Be Like You (my personal favorite of ALL Disney songs!)
 
Standby:  Poor Unfortunate Souls
 
Skip:  Friends on the Other Side - comes in last in this list of three, but still a terrific song.  The Villains have the best ones!

I think the princesses got short changed in the song department.

				Fast Pass - PhilharMagic (still a favorite, but it seems like the odds of getting a seat that doesn't provide all of the extra sensory expereinces (smells, water spritz) is more likely every trip.  They have cleaned up the video, with the addition of the Coco scene.  So it's much sharper to watch)
 
Standby:  Tough To Be A Bug (love this too, and they've really goosed up the bug spray that Hopper has shot out at the audience - blew the Mickey ears off of a lady in front of us!)
 
Skip:  Under the Sea
 
 
Rate the popcorn!
 
Outpost Mix
 
Caramel
 
Maple
