I've never been to these places, but I've Googled them and I'll take a swag:

Fastpass: Trader Sam's Grog Grotto
Standby: Jock Lindsey's Hanger Bar
Skip: Dawa Bar

A buddy of mine goes to WDW twice a year - in his honor, here are his three must eateries:

Mama Melrose, The Diamond Horseshoe, Teppan Edo

Going for a space theme....

Mission Space
Space Mountain
Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin

Fastpass: Space Mountain
Standby: Buzz Lightyear
Skip: Mission Space

I actually don't mind Mission Space, but really between the three it's the one I can do without.

You did a space theme, let's do a Disney train theme:

Big Thunder Railroad, Expedition Everest, Disney Railroad

Fast pass:. Big Thunder
Standby:. Disney Railroad
Skip:. Expedition Everest

Used to love EE, but somewhere between 40 and 45 that going backwards just started getting to me.

Carousel of Progress, Enchanted Tiki Room, Country Bear Jamboree

Nice, the air-conditioned-rest trio ...

Fastpass: Carousel of Progress
Standby: Country Bear
Skip: Enchanted Tiki Room

I'm sure there are many who would disagree - my daughter, at least on the last two - but I'm kind of burnt out of Tiki room at the moment.

Some nighttime entertainment:
Hallowishes, Electrical Parade, World of Color

Fast pass: Hallowishes
Standby: World of Color
Skip: Electrical Parade

Hallowishes was a clear #1 for me, but really the other two could go in any order.

Going food, because I'm hungry!
Main Street Bakery, Aloha Isle, Gaston's Tavern

Fastpass: Aloha Isle
Standby: Main Street Bakery
Skip: Gaston's Tavern

This one was deceptively challenging - I thought I immediately knew the answer because I'm not a Starbucks fan, but obviously the bakery is more than Starbucks. Also, I love the frosted apple drink at Gaston's Tavern, but Dole Whip will always win out.

Okay, let's time travel a bit and choose your Epcot visit:
Epcot 1982, Epcot 2000, Epcot Today

schinkus98 · Posted: Wed Sep 27, 2017 8:19 am Post subject:

Fastpass: EPCOT '82
Standby: EPCOT 2000
Skip: EPCOT today

'82 wins the fastpass because I didn't get to see it then. And I kinda miss the accoutrements decorating Spaceship Earth from 2000.

The Voices of Liberty, British Revolution, JAMMitors

Tomorrowland Transit, Tomorrowland Speedway, Astro Orbiter?

Fastpass: Speedway
Standby: TT
Skip: Astro Orbiter

Restaurant Marrakesh, Spice Road Table, Tangierine Cafe

bison74 · Posted: Mon Oct 02, 2017 2:27 pm Post subject:

Fastpass: Restaurant Marrakesh (absolutely fantastic!)
Standby: Tangierine Cafe
Skip: Spice Road Table

To be clear: I've never eaten at Spice Road, and the only reason it's in the skip slot is because Marrakesh and Tangierine were so good. Marrakesh especially - it was one of those restaurants where I couldn't stop eating and left nearly in pain. If they'd let me, I'd have just sat there and kept eating.

Epcot Destinations:
Norway, Germany, UK
