WDW Bucket List

WDW Bucket List


Although my program is over, these goals remain, and I will continue to work toward finishing them all when I return to the parks in the future :)

This is all a work in progress! 
Blue= General commentary
Green= Accomplished
Orange= Elaboration on accomplishment!

General Stuff

1. Go on every ride in each park at least once. Yes, this includes Dinosaur, which I have
    always conveniently avoided, and I need to go on Journey Into Imagination With Figment
    again for the sake of my reputation and dignity. Let’s just say last time I went on it, I was
    terrified, and everyone around me knew it.
    I have now been on Dinosaur with all of the lights on, all of the lights off, and normal!
    Figment was attempted again, but I can’t say I really redeemed my reputation.
2. See every show! I love shows, and have seen almost all of them to my knowledge, but I
    am looking to see them all!
3. Find Hidden Mickeys and take pictures of them! I’d put a goal number on this, but I just
    want to find as many as I can without the help from a book.
4. Go to all 4 parks in the same day.
5. Go to Rope Drop at each park at least once
6. Go to a park by myself.
7. Go to a park one day and not ride any attraction, but rather take pictures and look for
    things I haven’t seen before.
8. See every parade!
    To see some of my pictures from Festival of Fantasy click here, and here to see some
    from Mickey’s Jammin’ Jungle Parade!
9. Take a picture in front of each park’s landmark.
10. Watch custodian paint a water picture! This is the best when you catch them in the
      process! I’ve watched this a few times! Always impressed! Some custodial water artists
      will paint pictures backstage by our break room sometimes!! I love it!
11. Watch every nighttime show!
12. Go to the water parks. If I can’t go to both, at least one of them! I’ve surprisingly never
       been to either!

Magic Kingdom

1. Become a Galactic Hero on Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin. This has only
    happened once before for me, I’m hoping to get that 999,999 again :)
2. Dance in the Move it! Shake it! Celebrate it!
3. Buy a balloon on Main Street!
4. Find all of the hidden Pascals near Rapunzel’s tower!
    I have found 6 of the 10!
5. Go to the park early, and get a picture on Main Street, as empty as possible.
6. Have a part in Enchanted Tales with Belle. I’ve been an audience member quite a few
    times, I’m ready to take the stage!
    Woohoo! I was one of the suits of armor!
7. Learn the choreography to a parade. I’ve done this before for Dream Along With Mickey,
    the castle show, so I’m prepared to take on this challenge!
8. Listen to the Dapper Dans.
9. Make a wish in the wishing well.
10. Picture with the Partners statue, of course.
11. Take a picture with Jim, the piano man! I have pictures of him, but I am going to try and
      throw myself in one with him!
12. Ride all 3 mountains in one day.
13. Stay all the way until park closing and see the Kiss Goodnight. I’ve never seen this
      myself because I have parents who want to beat the crowds as much as possible to get
      back to our car! :)
14. Try pulling the sword from the stone in Fantasyland.

Epcot

1. Call and answer the phone booths in the World Showcase. I have called people that were
   visiting the Canada pavilion on several occasions. People get such a kick out of it, and I
   have talked to people, complete strangers, for 5 minutes at a time!
2. Get a passport from Guest Relations and visit every country at World Showcase to get it
     stamped
3. Pick a pearl in Japan
4. Sit in the very front and middle seat of Soarin’
5. Take a picture inside of Bruce’s mouth at The Seas with Nemo and Friends
6. Take a picture in every country!

Hollywood Studios

1. Be the Rebel Spy on Star Tours. This one is just something I hope happens to me, I can’t
    affect it in any way! I really want to be it though!
2. Do the Animation Class. It is so much fun, and you leave with a “free” souvenir, and it
    actually looks like the character. Bonus, you can take your drawing of a character to that
    character, and get them to sign it!
3. Experience Character Palooza.
4. Get picked as a volunteer at Indiana Jones Stunt Show Spectacular. I have done this
   once before, it is so much stinking fun!
5. Get the highest score in my car on Toy Story Mania!
6. Go on Tower of Terror in the day, night, and while it’s raining! (I’ve done day and night, but
    raining would be an interesting experience)
7. See both Fantasmic shows in the same night, because why not?
8. Volunteer to be that person on the Backlot Tour. Last time I went, they didn’t do this part
   with volunteers, but I hope it was just because of the weather or something. (RIP Backlot
    Tour)
9. Walk through One Man’s Dream
10. Win the instructor’s drawing at the animation class.

  Working on this! I have only earned 2 badges…
2. Find DeVine between Africa and Asia…tricky one.
  Didn’t prove to be so difficult when I work at DAK and pass her a lot!
3. Get picked to be part of the show at Festival of the Lion King. I feel like I heard it will be
   closed, but if it is open during any part of my program, I’m going!
   It is open now! The show is AMAZING!
4. Go on Kali River Rapids, and get soaked, inevitably.
   I wrote this before I knew I would ironically work this attraction :)
