FINALLY got a minor dream on last week's trip, and I was traveling solo: The prizes seem to be awarded by random time/location, so when I walked into Rafiki's Planet Watch last Sunday, and wondered why CM's were all stopping a group of ten or twelve of us at the door, we all got an AK Dream Fastpass to explain why. (And ironically, it *wasn't* my "dream", as I was getting ready to leave and hop over to another park, but all the regular Everest FP's were sold out by that point, CM's kept asking about it, and I got thumbs-up from Lilo & Stitch.) :) Derek Janssen (still organizing the TR, be patient) ejanss(a)comcast.net

That's really cool! Glad you got one of the prizes. I know I'm being my cynical self saying it seemed that only people with kids in tow seemed to be getting the Dream prizes. But that's the way it just seemed last December. I never saw anyone single, not even a straggler from a group, that had one of the Dream Fastpasses. Granted, I didn't see a lot of people with the Fastpasses, but you get my drift. >(And ironically, it *wasn't* my "dream", as I was getting ready to leave >and hop over to another park, but all the regular Everest FP's were sold >out by that point, CM's kept asking about it, and I got thumbs-up from >Lilo & Stitch.) :) Hey, even if you only used one of the Fastpasses, it was cool that you got one of the prizes. Maybe their's hope for me on my next solo trip. But please don't tell me I have to go over to Rat-Feces Planet Watch (My own special name for that place.) to get one. That is SUCH a commitment of time and SUCH a long walk over there, with so little return for the effort. Dave in Dallas - The one and only! Accept no substitutes.

Maybe their's hope for me on my next solo trip. Go to attractions, that's the only advice anybody can give. As to whether they fish them out more from the big attraction lines or from the "forgotten" ones, haven't been able to figure that one out yet. > But please don't tell me I have to go over to Rat-Feces Planet Watch > (My own special name for that place.) to get one.

Well, it was slow-season, so Pocahontas wasn't at Adventureland or MGM, and hey... :) Derek Janssen (and besides, I LIKE the Rainforest audio!) ejanss(a)comcast.net
