Nice podcast.
Disappointed to hear they won't allow bookings for Illuminations. That really was a wonderful experience after our reception.

Going to listen to the podcast in work tonight.
As for the Best Park Section...At Night, my first choice would have to be Tomorrowland. It really comes to life when the sun goes down.
Future World and Hollywood Boulevard are good too. I guess I have a thing for neon?

I was thinking about the whole Disney/Marvel thing with all of the characters at Universal/IOA. It will be interesting when that contract is up. What wuill happen?
My thought: Could Disney just swap the X-Men, etc. rights for Avatarland. Have we gone too far for that? I just think that by the time we've gone through the 5+ years it takes to get the Avatarland thing up and running the Avatar franchise might be really irrelevant; sequels could bomb. The Marvel characters in contrast are pretty timeless.

Totally floored about the mention of my beer with Gary's Column. My kids got a big laugh out of it as well. Semi-Celebrity status. Love the Podcast as always but this one will be in the personal archives forever. LOL.
and I was just looking at my profile. I've been a Intercotee since 2000 and this is my 79th post. That's pretty lame. I'll have to step it up a bit.

Great podcast as always!! I LOVE how long they have been
Ahhh the joy of ten day trips! DBF and I used to take ten day trips for a couple of years anyway and then work put the kibosh on that We both work for the same company in the same department so it was difficult on our manager to cover both our jobs plus his while we were away. Bummer too we used to LOVE the 10 day trips. John and Ian are right, its like sometimes you are just winding down and starting to relax and then you have to pack and go, with the 10 day trips we would come back feeling so much more relaxed. Someday we will be able to do that again, **sigh**.
My favorite area of the park at night is outside of the Imagination Pavillion area. No idea why but I always love that area at night with the upside Waterfall and the lights, etc.
If it covered resorts too then I would have said Boardwalk all night every night is my absolute favorite but it appeared it was strictly parks so. But for the record it would have been the Boardwalk lol
Speaking of Intercot Swag, I think DBF is still waiting for his from winning the Basketball Bracket lol……

Ian, I think we had the same waitress at 50's Prime Time. We ate there in 2010 and she had the same lines. The little boy I was there with was so traumatized, he won't even consider eating there!
I'm still listening, so I'll be back to comment more!

John, your confusion about the speedway was so funny. Was telling my husband about it and he thought the exact same thing, almost word for word about the rails.

Another good one guys!
I will be honest enough to admit that I was right there with John on the whole Speedway run. I just kept thinking how in the world is that going to work out?
You guys make me feel like we are living on the cutting edge of innovation here in Oklahoma because we've had a fork and screen type theater for several years now. It's a fun option and a popular choice for opening night because you actually have a reserved seat so you don't have to line up for big releases. I too was worried that the wait staff and food would be distracting, but it's really not.
I'm not sure how I feel about the reclaimed water thing. As far as I know reclaimed water is waste water (sewage) which is treated but not to drinking water standards. It's most often used for irrigation. Using it for hand washing seems a little ew.

John, the speedway rails part was the funniest moment in Intercot podcast history, for me anyway.
I just loved how it was all so conversational, with no hint of anyone picking up on it for the longest time. I was dying laughing! I am not even sure what was funnier...that you actually thought they were talking about the Indy Speedway or the fact that Mel and Gary didn't even realize that's what you meant. So funny.
My favorite nighttime spot in the parks is near Spaceship Earth. I could sit there for hours at night, listening to the music and enjoying the lights on SSE.

I haven't listened, but think I should go listen to the Marathon part anyway. I'm sure I didn't describe it as clearly as I should have. I know I'm not the best with explanation.
As far as it being one of the funnier moments, for me at least, it ranks up there with us all FINALLY figuring out the location of Gary's favorite people watching place - AKA Gary's Column.

I don't know Mel, I totally knew what you meant. Just not sure where John's mind was at...apparently, Tomorrowland.

It was. Both of my Illuminations party experiences were fantastic. Though the UK side has better beer within walking distance. French beer? Blech.

Shouldn't we hear from Column himself on this one?

Wow, finally getting around to listening to this (busy month)
Long time member, though I usually read more than I post, like MO-5.
Sorry my suggestion for "favorite" was so vague - I did that on purpose. But, thanks for picking it anyway and nice answers.
John, we walked out of Coral Reef (or Fish Cantina as I called it) real late one night and it was really calm and peaceful and I love the music. My favorite is probably a toss up between Adventureland and Tomorrowland, both for different reasons.
