Red Face There are boat rides in World Showcase?
Twice in the last week I have talked to people who have traveled to WDW several times and had no idea there were attractions in World Showcase.

Do people not use park maps?

Yeah, I talked to someone who didn't realize that the rafts to Tom Sawyer Island just went to TSI. What were they expecting, an E-ticket river rafting adventure?!

It's understandable that these people don't have a clue about World Showcase, as they were probably unable to find the EPCOT parking area - and had no clue where to board the monorail either. Makes you wonder what these people do on their jobs in order to afford a WDW vacation in the first place.

Not only boat attractions, but also Circle Vision films available at China and Canada, theatre film in France (and Norway? ) along with an attraction in America. Not to mention a few exhibits in China, Germany, Japan... and I'm probably missing some but that's what Disney parks are made of: attractions, shows, and exhibits.

  6. YOU ARENT TAKEN SERIOUS IF YOU'RE UNDER THE AGE OF 16.
  7. AS AN ADD-ON TO #6, YOU SHOULD BE TREATED AS A SUBORDINATEIF YOU ARE IN A THEME PARK WAITING 30 MINUTES IN LINE FOR A DRINK WHILE SOMEONE HAS TO RECOUNT PIZZAS.

  9. CERTAIN PEOPLE OVER ANALYZE A SIMPLE THREAD AND CONSIDER IT TO BE A CONTRACT FULL OF LOOPHOLES THAT HE/SHE CAN GET AROUND.
AND FINALLY...
10. PROLONGED USE OF THIS SITE CAN CAUSE AN EXTREME HATE OF DISNEY AND ALL DISNEY RELATED THINGS.

Re: There are boat rides in World Showcase?
You must remember, many, many people who go to Walt Disney World will tell you they are going to "Disneyworld [park] and Epcot".

This scenario is exactly why I don't give a rat's *** when people say "but the average guest wouldn't notice" in reply to the crap Disney pulls, like poor maintenance and cleanliness. The average guest only notices the sign that says "Disney".

Well thank God the wand was still there or they might not have even realized they were in Epcot! And people think it should be taken down. Oh the shame...

No, they probably just read MC and think WDW is no more than a Midway.

You missed Impressiones De France, a wonderful and beautiful film. The music alone makes it worth seeing.

Thats because some things take effort, and nobody wants to make an effort. They just want stuff handed to them.

I can understand a new visitor who may ask something like "what exactly is the Malestrom". But for someone who has visited the WS multiple times not to realize that there are shows, exhibits, and attractions - that just boggels the mind.
