I am ABSOLUTELY amazed at how long this thread has gone for.
I started visiting this site last summer prior to my 5 week stay at WDW for Dec 2002, then I go away for 6 months and it is STILL going on!
Way to go Laurie!!
Yes, ladies & gents - I spent 5 "glorious" weeks at WDW - GF Concierge and it was a memorable trip.
But as for IASW - one day in Jan - I believe it was 1/2/03, the ride stopped completely and all went dark. I mean it was SOO dark even the emergency lights weren't functioning. Nada.
Fortunately being the ex-girl scout, I carry a pocket flashlight with me. Our boat was not particularly crowded nor was the boat in front or back - maybe 4 people in each.
Here we are, captive prisoners at IASW with no power, no movement......................or so we thought. One of the small IASW figures began to move - ever so slightly but it moved.
For 10 miniutes no power. I couldn't keep my light on steadily because the battery was dying. But each time I turned it on-that figure looked closer to the boat in back.
When the lights finally returned - the boat in back of us was empty - no people, nothing. They VANISHED!
And as for that figure - it had the most evil smirk on its face.
I'm just glad the lights came back on when they did or I might have been next..........
