Fun thread! I have never ridden Toy Story Midway Mania, despite several attempts. I always seem to arrive just when the Fastpasses run out and the line is always waaaaay too long. I vow to ride it on our October trip! Also on my list: Country Bear Jamboree, Stitch's Great Escape (though I think I can skip that one), Finding Nemo the Musical and Astro Orbiter.
Thank You! Looks like a great group!!
Part of me cannot believe how many people haven't been on Toy Story Mania... But then I remember the waiting times (which can be seriously off putting!), and the fast passes run out so quick! We sent a family member straight over there to get fast passes as soon as we entered the park, then we all met up and enjoyed the rest of the park until it was our time to ride!
Hmm... attractions I've not been on/seen??
MK:
Monsters Inc Laugh Floor
Carousel Of Progress
Hall Of Presidents
Tom Sawyer Island
Tomorrowland Indy Speedway
Enchanted Tiki Room
Epcot:
Mission Space
DHS:
Tower Of Terror
Animal Kingdom:
Finding Nemo The Musical

I think for the most part I've ridden everything except for Mission Space, and Primevil Whirl... I can't go in circles too well... so the whirl..... NOPE!

You could go back year after year, and STILL not do everything!
I think my bucket list one would be Nascar and The Richard Petty Ride/Drive Along Experience! I know that sounds about odd for a girl, but I've wanted to do this experience for YEARS!
The other thing? Parasailing. We will be doing this this year.
Have never done "Splash Mountain". Not big on getting wet and I loathe drops! The only "drop" I can handle is on POTC. I know I'm a wimp.....

Welcome Smiley! Nothing odd about want to do the The Richard Petty Driving Experience. One of my co-workers recently went to Disney World. Him and his wife each signed up for a special experience. He did the Epcot DiveQuest and his wife did the The Richard Petty Driving Experience.

In all honesty... that is a decent drop. You just cant tell because its dark. I wonder how much longer Splash Mountain is now?
And I guess were looking at maybe 4 times longer... roughly

It's sad........I grew up going to Cedar Pointe and riding "The Magnum, Gemini, Iron Dragon". Never was a big fan of drops but I still rode them. Now, forget it! Thought I was going to die on "Space Mountain"....ugh! DH and I felt like we were run over by a Mac truck when it was over. I have truly entered into "Wimpdom"........LOL!!!
Oh Poppet don't feel bad - you're not alone. I don't and can't ride alot of things anymore. I was hoping to ride RRC but when I found out that there was a loop in it - I said "Forget it."
The only ones we've missed at MK are the riverboat cruise and mad hatters teacups.

I honestly don't think there is anything I have never done. There are somethings I have not dont in a long long time like Astro Orbiter, Tomorrow Land Speed Way, The Carousel, & Dumbo.
We're right there with ya, we can't think of anything we have never done. We have done astro orbiter but not for a long time. That and a lot of the rides in fantasyland like Snow White and Peter Pan since the kids were little. We still have to do Small World every once in a while, just to remind Mike that he still hates it. We haven't done the Carousel for a long time either. We just did the new Dumbo, hadn't done the old one in years either, partly because the line is always so long.

Julie, we haven't done Small World or Dumbo in a while either. Will have to make it a point to do them in Nov. I also have to do Astro Orbiter.
Yes, Welcome, Curt!! Why not introduce yourself on the first page of the forum so we can give you a proper welcome? We're glad to have you!
I have always been a coaster chicken, so I've avoided everything that fits into that category!
I think that's why I like Disney so much; it's not crazy coasterville everywhere you turn the way it is at other parks!
I've ALSO never done the Riverboat...would it be worth our while? Does the Riverboat take you to Tom Sawyer Island? Never been there, either!

I haven't been on the Riverboat. I think it just goes around Tom Sawyer Island. There is a raft that will take you to the island.

I'd say the riverboat is worth doing once. And if you have spare time and want a relaxing ride, do it again. As noted above, it doesn't take you to the island.
I love the riverboat, it's very relaxing. I have good memories tied to it, we used to go on the riverboat when Riley was an infant, I have such clear memories of sitting on the floor in front of her stroller and feeding her babyfood from a jar. Weird how you tie things to strong memories and emotions. My "baby" Riley will be 13 on September 28th!

I have never been on Aladdin's Magic Carpets....but I think that's the only attraction I haven't tried! Looking forward to trying some of those new ones soon!
Hmm, since I have issues with heights... Astro Orbiter, the Magic Carpets and Tower of Terror. I have ridden on Dumbo, but it was many years ago with my niece and I thought I was going to die (she wanted to be at the very top the whole ride). I can do Splash Mountain and Expedition Everest on a really good day. Other than that, I am game for anything at least once.

See that's what happens when you have a boy and a girl. They boys team up together and go ride the rides and us girls team up and go shopping. But now that she is taller we will be following the boys to the rides.
