It's time for another helping of MiceChat's best and brightest. This week Disneyland's Adventureland gets overrun by Indiana Jones while Walt Disney World is covered in great photography. O'nut and Brian make it to New England while X2 reopens at Magic Mountain with just as much downtime as the original version. Enjoy - Fishbulb

WDW Gay Days Meet - June 7th - Magic Kingdom
Howdy Chatters, we'll be holding another of our popular Walt Disney World meets on the Saturday of Gay Days - June 7th at the Magic Kingdom. 11:30am on the Tomorrowland Terrace Noodle Station lower terrace (just to the right of the Tomorrowland entrance off the hub). We'll be in the covered seating area in the corner nearest the Castle/Hub.

We'll meet and chat for about half an hour. Anyone who would like to join us for lunch is welcome to do so immediately following the meet. If the Noodle Station is open, we'll eat there - Otherwise, we'll go to Harbour House (we like to get tables upstairs). We'll be sure to catch the afternoon parade - always a lot of fun on Gay Days. We look forward to seeing you all very soon!



Indy should have stopped at three.

Indiana Jones is now appearing throughout Adventureland, and he placed a few marks along the Jungle Cruise, and another snack shack is open in the Midway Mania area of Paradise Pier.

Please Remove Your Hat
Werner Weiss writes: There are times when wearing a hat is polite and appropriate. And there are times when it's impolite—even downright rude—to wear a hat. For example, wearing a hat inside a movie theater blocks the view of the screen for the people behind you. It takes a really big hat to block the view of the outside of a movie theater. And it's a particularly rude when it destroys what once was a memorable and delightful vista. Do you agree?
