SAFD:
Epcot
1. Gran Fiesta Tour-I love the Three Caballeros and the music. I love the ambience. I love that I can almost always walk directly onto a boat. The Mexico Pavilion is my favorite place is Epcot. As someone who experiences semi-regular migraines and has light sensitivity it is an awesome place to cool off, relax for a time, people watch, and regain my senses on a long park/festival day. I’ll often mix two/three/four rides of Gran Fiesta Tour into that time.
2. Guardians of the Galaxy:Cosmic Rewind-I’ll try to limit the novellas the rest of the way. This ride is just plain awesome. Nothing about it I don’t like, although I prefer if it’s not a Disco Inferno when I ride. I’m a Conga guy.
3. Frozen Ever After-Lacks the overall experience of the Mexico Pavilion and walk-on aspect of my #1, but slow boat ride with good music and IP I like always works.
4. Soarin’- Saw the California version over MW 2024 and I’ll say that despite the warped screen I’m still an Around the World guy.
Hollywood Studios
1. Slinky Dog Dash- Not the most thrilling roller coaster, but it’s really fun. Wish the capacity was better.
2. Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway- This is my favorite use of the trackless technology that Disney can’t seem to get enough of recently. Usually not a bad wait and I love the colors.
3. Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular- Definitely a nostalgia play, but as a soft serve enthusiast there are much worse ways to spend 30 minutes than grabbing a swirl waffle cone and watching the show.
4. Toy Story Mania-I’m competitive and love a good game attraction. Also will give it bonus points for being the workhorse for Hollywood Studios
Genie+ as one of the only things in the park with truly high capacity.
I know I’ve left out both Star Wars rides, ToT, and RnRC. In a different world, as a thrill ride enthusiast, those might be my top 4. But in this world they all have far too low capacity and break down far too much, leading to long waits and complete unreliability when trying to navigate a park day.
