Icon09 New addition to Swiss Family Robinson treehouse

It seems someone put a condom and some money on the parents' bed in Magic Kingdom's Swiss Family Robinson tree house.

Hey the Robinsons don't live there anymore it is now the Tarzan Treehouse. SO at least Tazan and Jane are using safe sex.

It's the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse at Walt Disney World (Florida) and Tarzan's Treehouse at Disneyland (California). I find that people get the two confused a lot.

And just look at how excited and happy those guests look!!! I guess spending $50,000 a day at Disney World for a family of 4 doesn't affect some people the way it would me?

Hey, we used to go to Disney World for an entire week with the total cost about $400 per person. That included hotel, eating out every meal and going to 5 theme parks. Of course this was 10 years ago and I'm sure prices haven't gone down since then. I'm feeling very old now.

I just went to the site and set up as hypothetical vacation for a family of four with 2 adults and two kids (ages 11 and 14)

Even staying in the Grand Floridian (which ain't cheap), and getting meal service, and tickets to all the parks a week long stay only runs $3700 give or take.

Still a pretty penny, but its not 50 large either.

I remember taking an 8th grade class trip to Disney World for a total cost of $50 per person.

It's the spunk fairy! You know the tooth fairy's slightly odder sister. Leave a used condom under your pillow; in the morning you get half a dollar.

Collect whatever comes out of wherever in a tissue, and leave it under your pillow. In the morning you will have shiney new keyboard.

I have actual tickets from 1980/81 that were used to board every single ride. In mint condition.......now I feel old!

I wonder what those could be worth to a Disniac? Is that a word even?

I've got a few of those old "Magic Key" coupons hanging around as well.... How many remember those?? And the all time great cliche of "an E ticket attraction" (It came from such greats as when Space Mountain first opened)

Most people I know that are borderline (or are) obsessed about Disney refer to themselves as Disnuts.
