I missed so much on our first trip that I have been making a MUST DO list for our next trip with all of the things we missed:

1) Animal Kingdom - we only spent about an hour and half here on our last trip and only did the Festival of the Lion King.
- Safari
- Rapids
- Dinosaur
- Tough to be a bug!
- Tarzan
- Walk around on the trails

2) MGM - we did alot at MGM but there are a few things we missed
- Back lot tour
- I would love to do a character breakfast here
- The Parade!

3) Epcot - we only did about half of Future World so we need to spend some time doing the other half! LOL! tongue.gif

4) Magic Kingdom - we did a lot of the "thrill" rides at MK so here is a list of rides we missed and would like to do:
- Winnie the Pooh
- Snow White
- Peter Pan
- Dumbo
- Haunted Mansion (it was closed during our trip graemlins/crying.gif )
- Alien Encounter (If I get brave enough)

Definately must do Haunted Mansion as that was closed for refurbishment.. graemlins/muscles.gif Than of course, I want to see Tinker Bell's flight as it was raining hard the night we were there to see it.. Also, would like to see Epcot's night time firework display out on the lake... And of course, Tarzan at Animal Kingdom and Beauty and the Beast at MGM.. graemlins/thumbsup.gif Now I am dying to go back.. Hopefully soon... graemlins/mickey.gif

Even though I have been many times, I have a to do list for the upcoming trip!

Country Bears (DH was a spoiled sport the last time and said I could not go see them, at least not with him anyway)
Diamond Horsehoe, It sounds like this show has changed alot since I last saw it
Winnie the Pooh-lines have been too long, maybe this year!

Fantasmic-I have never been willing to stand in line for 2 hours to watch a show. I have my dinner pkg booked already!

Ohana-I cannot recall being there and am looking forward to a wonderful dining experience. The couple we are travelling with have been raving about it!

JIYI-nothing can ever replace the original.

Checking out other resorts. This is a must-do for any Disney vacation.

Ahhhh....13 days away!!!!! :cool:

We spent more than 40 days at WDW last year and I still managed to miss that dang MGM afternoon parade! First it was scheduled for 3PM, then 3:30PM, then 5PM - we never got to see it because the schedule kept changing!

All the more reason to plan another trip!

Here's my list of must do attractions on my next visit:

RnR-couldn't talk anyone into doing it, next time I'll go by myself if I have to!

Country Bears-DS12 thinks he's too cool to go to this, guess I'll go without him!

One Man's Dream-I hope they don't close this down after 100 years is over. For some reason we never made it through this and I would love to do it.

Even after two week long trips, I still feel like there's so much more to see. Guess I'll just have to keep going back until there is nothing more to see, which will be never since they are always coming up with new stuff too!

Oh, and by the way, Amanda, why do your topics always end with (m) in the title line? Just curious......

You might have missed "something" in the parks but I have high hopes that you didn't miss the most "important parts" of your honeymoon! To answer the question; I've been to WDW 3-5 times since the 100 year celebration and have yet to see the AK afternoon parade.

Everytime we have been to Animal Kingdom, for some reason we never find time to see The Festival of The Lion King. We only see Tarzan Rocks. This year we vowed to see the Lion King show instead of Tarzan. I also am looking forward to the 100 years of magic events since we haven't been since the celebration started. graemlins/muscles.gif

EPCOT - Eat the chocolate wave at Coral Reef, Maelstrom's in Norway (closed while we were there), American Adventure, ride the boat across the lake, sounds dangerous

On my must do list for Feb:

Alien Encounter

Chef Mickeys
Tea @ GF
Stormalong Bay
Typhoon Lagoon
Any country in WS past the US on the Left and UK on the right (never can seem to make it around the lagoon :D )

I would like to try Narcoosees, Cape May Clam Bake, Chef Mickey's, Boma, CRT for dinner, and
Fulton's Crab House. All of which I am planning on trying this month, hopefully. Do you sense a food obsession here? As far as non-food attractions:
Splash Mountain
I missed half of the countries in WS, I would like to see the other half.
Kali River Rapids
Typhoon Lagoon
Dole Whip (Oh wait, that would be considered food, wouldn't it?)

I think I know what the (m) is for...

I was reading the common acronyms for another one of my boards and they listed (m) as an indication that more text follows in the body of the message. I guess on some boards you can say all you need to in the subject line and you don't need to elaborate. It's just a way to mark messages so you know whether to open it or not.

As you may be able to tell, I'm not good with unanswered questions... :D

Pearlieq is absolutely correct! I am sorry, I didn't get to check the boards for a number of days and didn't realize people were asking me what the (m) means. I post on another website quite frequently and that is a way to let people know that there is a continuation from the subject line. (nt) means that the subject line is the only text. So it is just habit to automatically put the (m) when typing a subject line. :D

You can never do it all. Every year there seems to be on or two things to do or see that we never did before.
Some of the things which took us several years and trips to finally do.
.......rent water sprites
.......took fireworks cruise
.......finally saw fantasmic
.......all the Christmas time activities and events

Some things we need to do yet...
.......Cirque du Soleil
.......Mickey trick or treating.
.......wide world of sports
.......camp in fort wilderness
