What is something that is insignificant but you miss now that its gone at WDW?

[Queen of the WDW Scene]

My family was reminiscing about small things that have left Disney World that we really miss.

Our top things were powder soap in the restrooms and the old style strollers.

What do you miss that is super insignificant?

 

[Gumbo4x4]

Wasn't there a "scenic" boat ride in the early days of AK?

 

[BlueStarryHat]

The swans at the MK.

push the talking trash can. we didn't see him often, but when he was there we were in love. i remember him singing beauty and the beast to my oldest dd as she was dressed as belle. it makes me a little sad that my youngest dd will never experience him.

Great thread. The powder soap was gross though!

Great thread. The powder soap was gross though!

We loved it!
It had a distinct smell, was great for exfoliation, and as a child it was so much fun

Strawberry swirl from MK. Loved that. It was strawberry mash and vanilla soft serve swirl

 

[L&Lfan]

Plaza Swan Boats at MK

 

[Domo]

Maelstrom from EPCOT

 

[DisneyDebbie]

printed napkins and the Christmas garland down Main St

Maelstrom from EPCOT

Maelstrom is not insignificant. Neither are Snow White or Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. I wish they'd all magically revert back, but Harry Potter and his magic are all over at Uni.

 

[brockash]

The napkins that had Disney on them...not just plain ones.

 

[aristocatz]

Hotel specific refillable mugs

 

[JustineMarie]

The ice cream social at the garden grill!!!

 

[Gorechick]

Making dining reservations with a CM on a tv screen at Epcot.

Pal Mickey

I never knew beaver tails existed. Then they disappeared before I could make another trip. Now, I shall never know the beauty of which old timer's speak - the beauty of the beaver tail.

Recipe Cards at the Food & Wine Festival
The brochure-style park maps from the 80's (a FULL page for each land!)
The old Club Cool - the "icy" entrance was sooooo nice on those 100-degree days
Mexico's La Cantina restaurant used to have this hot sauce in little packets that was REALLY hot. I would always take a handful when I walked by to take home!

 

[leebee]

The table-service restaurants used to have logo-specific napkins. Chef Mickey's used to have a menu- yes, for a buffet- that the characters would sign. Butter pats used to be round and have Mickey or Minnie heads embossed on them. Resort-specific mugs. Character buses in World Showcase.
Not so insignificant... Live entertainers in every country of World Showcase. Street entertainers in HS and MK. Opening shows outside AK. Something, ANYTHING, in all those empty buildings at Epcot. Having your hotel rate be the same for all nights of your stay as they were for your check-in day. Tickets that were good forever, until you used up the days/amenities. Being able to cancel days at the start/end of your hotel reservation instead of having to make an entirely new reservation.

I miss the outdoor talking drinking fountains by club cool, soap that came in the mickey boxes, club cool and the flavors from around the world, printed mickey napkins.
I miss the keel boats by tom sawyer island, slow but different. The revolutionary war fife and drum group.
