My wife found the water utterly replusive.  This however is
her normal reaction to just about any water that we drink 
outside of her hometown (which to me doesn't taste all that 
great).  I thought that the water tasted a little bit funny in 
Orlando, but I drank lots of it anyway.  I figured to myself, 
"Hey, it may taste a bit strange, but it doesn't taste half as 
bad as the water in and around Anaheim."  So I drank it and 
considered myself lucky.

Hi, folks!

Would anyone like to trade taped episodes of "Wonderful World of Disney"?  
I've got quite a few of the shows on tape and was wondering if anyone else 
has an interest in that series.

Thanks in advance!

when making a decision between a super-duper pass (that's what they call
the super pass now) and an annual pass, keep in mind that the annual 
passes are good for the "big 3" major theme parks only, and not for the 
"minor" theme parks like pleasure island, typhoon lagoon, river country, 
and discovery island.  each of these has its' own private annual pass.

the 4 and 5-day super-duper passes both come with 7 day passes for the minor 
parks (7 days from the day of first use at a major park).

Also I have a "mechanical bicycle" toy, Disney, where could I find out what

In the movie itself, the song is a sort of show where all of Triton's
daughters are to be singing. It is Ariel's premier, and she is to have a 
gorgeous voice. At the point where they start singing "Ariel" the clam shell
she's supposed to be in is opening, and Ariel isn't there. So, they actually
only get to "Ari" when they realize she's not there, so the whole thing
stops short.

I don't have the soundtrack myself, and I haven't seen the movie in a little
while, but I'd guess your disk is fine.

Hope this helps!

We have stayed at the CBR for three years, and enjoyed every time.
The resort is set up in 5 different clumps of rooms, each named for a different Caribbean country
or area.  Each "island" has it's own pool, and laundry area.  The rooms are a little bit smaller than
the rooms at the other Disney resorts -about equivalent to most regular hotel rooms. though.
Each room has 2 queen beds, and all the other stuff that you want in a  hotel room -double 
sinks, too!
As of the last time we were there, there were also mini-bar-refigerators there, and a 
COFFEEMAKER!  The coffee setups are in the mini-bar, but we used our own, and cleaned the
pot out after we were done, and there was no problem.  Also, the refigerator has enough room to
put a couple of small milks or a piece of fruit or two -real nice with a kid. 

Old Port Royale is about in the center of the resort, and is the food court, and shopping, and 
arcade for the resort.  There are a number of different stalls there with good food.  The sticky buns
in the bakery are GREAT!
Old Port Royale is also where the main pool is. It is not as large as the one at the Yacht/Beach club,
but it is a really nice pool.  This is also where you can rent a boat, or a bicycle for puttering around
the grounds.  The CBR is the biggest resort in WDW (about 2100) rooms, so there is a lot of room
to walk .bicycle, or whatever.  The walking bridge between the east and west sides of the 
resort goes through a nice playground area.  This is a very comfortable, and quiet place to go
with a family.  I recommend it highly
Also, just because it is a "budget" hotel doesnt mean that you don't get the goodies that you get
with the other resorts:
Free parking with your resort ID
Charge Privileges at most of the stores in the World -is the MK STILL not able to take hotel charges?
Bus transportation throught the rest of the World
Guaranteed admission to the park(s) if they are busy, or if the lots are full (if you use the buses)
Three day ahead reservations for the restaraunts in EC
Reservations at any of the dinner shows as soon as your reservation is confirmed (like the 
Hoop De Do Review)
If we can afford it, our family will never stay off the WDW property again, due to the 
conviencences of the resorts.

Eric;
I'm not too sure why Disney does some of the things that you said, but I do know why the
BaTB laserdisc is so late...
According to an interview of Jeff Katzenberg by Roy Leonard of WGN this summer, 
the reason that the laserdisc of BaTB is late is that the theatrical release in Europe of BaTB was
this summer.  His reason for the late release is that, as you well know, a laserdics is basically
brodcast quality, and up to now cannot be copyguarded.  Evidently, almost immediately after
other laserdisc releases, these films show up all over the world having been copied from a 
laserdisc.  So's to protect their investment, and the Eruopean release, it's late.....
I want one, too, and I dont have a laserdisc player (yet)..

Well, it's probably due to that same little rift in the normal time-space
continuum that makes the Beast's castle get closer and closer to Belle's
village every day...IE, first time it took Maurice a whole day to get there on
Philippe, by the end of the movie the villagers & Gaston got there in about 6
minutes (judging by the length of the song.. :) walking...

You know, as I write this I just thought of something else - the castle
changed directions from the village, didn't it?  1st time Maurice rides off
into the countryside, but last time the mob goes THROUGH the villiage first...
:)

Wow...it really WAS a magic castle.

Hi, Michael!  I think he's probably used to the accent, even if he's never

mine for $20 which includes shipping.  It is in excellent condition; only 
seen twice.  Because, when it came on the disney channel, I recorded it and 
ran that copy into the ground.  I was just keeping the prerecorded copy for 
archive purposes.  But now I have a copy on LaserDisc so I don't need the 
tape.
     I also have a copy of Disney's Robin Hood I'll sell for $15(same story 
as above but viewed a few more times).   If interested, email me.

Dear Kim, 

Megan Follows is a Canadian actress who has been in a whole pile of
plays in the Toronto theatre scene over the past ten years.  As far as
screen credits go, I'm less certain.  Her big TV break came when she
starred in a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC} TV movie about a
female goalie on a boys hockey team.  Unfortunately, I can't remember
what it was called but I do know that it is the kind of movie that the
Disney Channel likes to show.  I'll try to hunt down the title but it
may take a while.

After the Anne of Green Gables movies, Megan Follows went to Hollywood
to try her luck.  Unfortunately, I don't think that she had much
success.  My roommate saw her in an American movie.  She played a 
Southern girl who befriended a black girl during the time of slavery.
Once again, I can't give you a title.

Are there any Canadians out there who know what has happened to
our beloved Anne?

Sorry that I can't be more specific.

If you're referring to "The Music of Disney - A Legacy In Song"
I felt it was well worth it.  BUT, I haven't bought every single
CD since they came out, so there was quite a lot that I did
not have.  My favorite of that group so far is the one that has
the songs from the non-cartoon movies, TV shows and theme parks
(#3).  A lot were from my childhood and I hadn't heard them
in so long.

I received mine as a gift, but it was fairly inexpensive ($30 or
there abouts) at the local Price Club so if I hadn't I would
probably have bought it for myself at some time.

well, i was at pleasure island yesterday (during the day when unfortunately 
only the shops are open).  my last visit was 15 months ago (october of 1991)
so i thought i'd detail the changes i'd noticed.

the jessica rabbit store is gone, replaced by a really lame store called
"music legends" where they sell music-related stuff.  thankfully,
the huge jessica rabbit sitting on the roof is still there.
i found a lot of the merchandise from jessica's on sale at the character
warehouse (see my next post).

the xzfr ("zephyr") club has been renamed simply the "rock and roll beach 
club".  there is a large store called doodles on the first floor
of the rock and roll beach club.

the avigators store no longer seems to have the flying alligator merchandise
which they seemed to have a lot of last time.

the cage is now called 8-tracks and plays 70's music.

the jazz club will be opening in meriweather's market in the spring.

the adventurers club logo has changed a bit.  it now shows a globe with
a banner underneath.  (the old logo had a large compass rose with banners
over the front).

that's about all i can come up with.  feel free to ask me any other
questions that come up.

were not the people that sang the songs.
I was wondering if this were true for The Little Mermaid and Beautyu
and the Beast, like did Paige O'Hara sing the songs that 
Bell did?

Does anyone have the boxed set of CDs with classic Disney songs from
many of the animated and nonanimated films?  I saw it in music stores just
before Christmas, and am interested in getting it, but I wanted someone 
else's opinion.  It has songs from movies up to and including BatB, but
not from Aladdin.  Any opionions??
