Filler rides and Hollywood Studios
Jspider
has been thinking a lot about Hollywood Studios and how Disney can fill it in a little better. He has some very valid points and good ideas. And there are always more Chatters willing to share their thoughts as well! Add your 2 cents...

Trip Report 1/27-2/4 (No photos. Only pictures. Photo heavy)

How I failed at Oscar Trivia......
Moonliner isn't afraid to own a little Oscar trivia shortcoming, but what seems the bigger issue here is his admission that he once referred to the castle at Disneyland as the abode of Cinderella. It takes a big person to claim an epic fail as blatant as that!

A regional celebration in parts of Pennsylvania, new MiceChatter honoraryhatter shares with us the customs of Fasnacht (bless you!) Day, which include noshing on fasnachts (bless you!) or, maybe just donuts and coffee.
