Come and join us for another installment of the WDW-Memories podcast, where I try to make it possible for you relive your Walt Disney World Memories when you can't actually be there. Ok, so it’s official. I’m heading to Orlando in June. Yes it’s for a convention at the Orange County Convention Center, but I can’t travel that far and not see the parks. So I will figure out a way to make it there, even if it’s for a day or just an evening. Maybe I’ll even plan a time to meet up with any of you who might be there at the same time, but no official plans yet. If you have any suggestions, feel free to let me know. Anyways, this really has nothing to do with today’s memory. Today, we’re going to relive one of those polarizing attractions again, Mission: Space. I say polarizing because I know people love to hate this attraction because it replace the beloved Horizons. I think Dan said it best in a tweet when he said “noooooooooooooooooooo, That took over for the best attraction in WDW...” I agree with Dan, but I won’t go so far as to protest Mission: Space. It’s a pretty good ride in it’s own right. I LOVED Horizons, don’t get me wrong, but I am sadly coming to grips with the understanding that things must evolve to keep from getting stale. I just wish it wasn’t this attraction that was destroyed. That said, at least Mission: Space isn’t so bad. I love the background music as you approach the attraction, the feeling of the initial G forces as you “take off”, and the feeling of weightlessness as you “leave the Earth’s atmosphere”.
