Did you ever see an elephant fly?

Hello! Just wanted to get away from the same 'I'm new' type titles...no offence intended! Smile

Anyway, I'm Sid from London. Been a long time Disney fan, making my first visit to WDW back in 1988 and been on and off over the years since. Have also taken in DLP and DLHK but nothing really matches up to the big one, making my most recent visit last year just before Halloween.

Welcome, Sid from London! I like your title. mickey

Of course I've seen Dumbo fly, but never a three dimensional elephant. Although on our December trip, we did see an elephant...um...relieve himself, so to speak, on Kilimanjaro Safaris laugh

Hello ! So glad you joined us ! Tell us some of your favorite Disney Moments?

To be honest - all of WDW is a favourite Disney moment. But particular favs - Spaceship Earth, The People Mover (recently discovered), Mission to Mars, Rock and Roller Coaster, BTMR amongst others. I've enjoyed it more in the more recent visits having got a bit older (well a lot older!), but it's the sort of place where you can lose yourself for a day or so and pretend you're a kid again and not worry about all the bad stuff happening outside...everyone smiles, there's no fighting, no real swearing and a stranger can talk to you without being fearful of being ignored or attacked.

Haha Fergus! Nah, it was the first Disney quote that popped into my mind at the time!

Sally-Ann, I might be going back this year or possibly next year, depending on money...my friends would prefer the West Coast, I prefer the East Coast as I don't have to arrange accommodation there. When are you going?
