DIS Dads - My Favorite Attraction Is...

MK, big thunder/ jungle cruise (tie but if I had to choose one it would be jungle cruise, the DW & DD don't care for roller coasters)
EPCOT, test track
DHS, ROCKIN' ROLLER COASTER!
AK, expidention Everest, but I will gladly do kilimanjaro safari to be with the DW
 
Mickey's (Donald's) Phillharmagic

2nd would be Splash Mountian.

3rd is Soarin'

By park 1-2-3
MK: Philharmagic - Splash Mountian - Haunted Mansion
EP: Soarin - Test Track - Voices of Liberty
AK: Everest - Safari - Conservation Station
HS: Tower of Terror - Rockin Rollercoaster - Muppet Vision 3D
 
January is a typical rehab month for SM due to the cooler temps

That's what I figured... We go down that time frame a lot because the parks are less crowded and the marathon is that month, which gives me a reason to stay in shape. We end up missing Splash mountain, the water-parks and golf though, so I may switch it up next year...
 
The Land! I know right!?!?! I love this ride. The smells, the relaxation, the green house, everything. My wife thinks I'm wierd when there are so many other "thrill" rides that should be above this one. Something about this silly ride ALWAYS pulls me to it. Im able to relax, kick my shoes off, and enjoy it for the 13 minutes it takes to do this ride. Plus I like to see what Im going to be eating when I have a meal at The Garden Grille. The food they raise in the green house is served fresh at the GG.

I can't believe we skipped this ride until last year...we loved it and rode a few times, DW and I loved it

Hokay Bullwinkle, here we go..

Top is Haunted Mansion....I am, a ghosts/haunting fanatic and was VERY looking forward to this ehrn our first trip came up. It ended up being the first Disney ride/attraction I rode. Honorable Mention to Philharmagic and Jungle Cruise.

Also: AK-Expedition Everest

HS- Toy Story Mania

Epcot Living with the Land
 
Keeping in mind that I have not been since I was around 5. Favorite Attraction would be the Contemporary Hotel, The idea of a train(monorail) going through the hotel I was staying in was amazing to my little mind. Not to mention breakfast with Chip & Dale. Also LOVED Figment, bought every figment character they sold total of like 20 or 30.

I love that ride too. Hydroponics is my friend.

I'm right there with you! The Contemporary has always fascinated me. I remember my first trip riding the monorail into the park and going through a hotel. That was the coolest thing ever! I still haven't managed to stay there yet though.

Are you doing the 2012 Marathon?
 
I. . .don't. . .know. . .

too many to name.

Jungle Cruise maybe, I love the horrible puns. But there are too many to pin it down.

I'm really looking forward to the New Star Tours when we go in August. I am a Star Wars Geek, so I love the old one, the theming was awesome, but the ride was anti-climatic. Can't wait for the new one.

I did the unthinkable last year...DW and the kids were wiped our last day, we had gone back to the resort for a swim and rest, but in the end, DW did not want to go back to MK where we had been that morning. She did insist I go back if I wanted to for a bit of the EMH, so I went after dinner. It felt really strange being in MK by myself, going on some of the rides, and I didn;t last too long, felt bad for being there.

I went to WDW a couple years ago for a conference, and felt the same way. I ended up going into MK for EMH after the conference got out one night, and it felt weird doing the rides and stuff alone. I couldn't put my finger on it at the time, but it just didn't feel right...

Me too. I went back to the MK alone on our last night to ride Pirates and it's not something I'd do again.

I did accomplish one thing I always wanted to do, that was ride Jungle Cruise at night, awesome seeing there were only 5 passengers total, but no one to crack wise with, it was lost on me. Watched Philharmagic, and had to laugh at the host of the Country Bear Jamboree, who's chinese accent was so thick, it was hilarious, with no one to joke about with. A waste of a potential running joke. Even Haunted Mansion, which I have ridden alone several times, felt empty. I felt like I was cheating on my family, even though it was everyone agreed to it. I could have stayed hours later, instead just got a Dole Float and left.....
