Bar at Tower of Terror

YEP never pull that restraint tight! that is what is so cool about the ride, the floating! -
I want to do that! WWW would be a fun time! Bill and I went to AK last night and rode the safari. The driver asked if anyone had ridden it at night before, we were a whole truck load of newbies There were several other trucks ahead of us and all going slowly. The driver was good at pointing out animals he could see. I won't spoil the ride for you by telling all that we saw, but one thing was the high light of our trip. We had to wait about 5 minutes for a white rhinoceros to decide to move out of the road. Our driver must have hit a HELP button and soon a jeep or pick up truc

I usually go to the one near I-4 on Turkey Lake RD. Haven't measured distance of them from fort. But the Turkey Lake one has less tourist traffic to deal with IMO. But if you need to shop at Campers World or the outlet malls, then the one on RT 192 is handy. The best time to shop at any Walmart I've found, is early in the morning. Also like to use the garden exit to check out, less line there. i

The Tower is one of my favorite Disney rides. Love the falling feeling and knowing it's safe. Well as safe as it can be. Don't like the lap bars. -
ICYMI: A New TCD Trip Report April 2016 at the Fort
fladogfan aka Gretchen replied to Tri-Circle-D's topic in Trip Reports
Looking forward to meeting your Gram. What a sweet treat you are planning for her. -
WOW wondering if you ever found out what happened.

I'm in and 1st! That's a 1st too

At that time of year, the fort is in major holiday mode. The parking lot is full and even cast members can be turned away. BUT! there will be a slew of fiends camping at that time and if you know a name and site number most of the time that will get you by the guard. But I was wondering, since the bikes are folding, are they small enough to take a Disney bus to the fort? If guests bring strollers and all that goes with them, a folded bike should be OK. But that's just me. Guess you can't take a bus from your resort directly to the fort though and would need to change.

I still call it wedway, but know what you are talking about when you say people mover. It is a very relaxing time, except for Marty's last ride with the cheer leaders. Have used it in the past, to check the lines inside Space Mountain and to just chill.

And now I'm looking forward to Troll's next TR. -
Just interesting photos!

Now that's clever. Got your little T&B and a side car that becomes your fishing boat -
Being Nice Pays Off

You are a lucky man! It looks great! -
I like all your photos, even the artsy-fartsy one. I really like your outside kitchen, seems with the T&B being small it would make it really tight inside. I hope we can stop on our way back this summer. I had camped 40 plus years ago in a pup tent at Anastasia, walked to the show they had in daylight, able to see the huge spider webs built across the path. Fortunately high in the trees. Still creepy walking back in the dark and knowing they were up there. Learned later the spiders were most likely wolf spiders.

I'm in, yes it was HOT!

Unfortunately my DH also had plans the very same weekend and wouldn't be home at pet feeding time in the evening. So I had to miss a lot of the fun. I caught up with the WW in Epcot but while I waited in a line to enter I could hear them!! And see them getting a photo taken. Not sure just what was happening but it caused a lot of noise
