Default How about what DON'T you miss

Lots of posts about what we miss from the parks, but what don't you miss, and does not having it really make your park experience worse?

I don't miss Timekeeper
I don't miss Dreamflight
and please don't kill me for this, but I don't miss Horizons or World of Motion, I am only 28 and barely remember riding them before they went away

I don't miss the ticket system!!!! What ride is an E ticket ride? What do you mean we can't ride it again? How many and what tickets do we have left? You lost your ticket book!!

Nope, don't miss it....

I don't miss the old fireworks show at MK -- I like Wishes much, much more!

I don't miss truncated hours during the off-season with no extra magic hours.

I don't miss not having a kitchen/fridge before we were DVC members.

BUT...

My list of what I do miss is much longer than this.

I don't miss Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. There. I've said it.

I never understood the hype. I rode it many times, but never really fell for the low-tech, outdated experience.

I can't imagine a family doing that system today. It was awful!

Default How about what DON'T you miss

I do not miss renting a car or even Mears. It would be a nightmare to rent a car with 2 kids with car seats.

What about Tarzan Rocks?? Ba-Bye.

That is all I can think of now.

121 DAYS TO GO!!!

1 Month Til ADRs

Parking and walking from our car the half-mile in the heat/humidity to the park entrance
Waiting at the gate with all the other cars
The ticket book - no more running out of E tickets!
Having no Animal Kingdom (#2 favorite park!)
