Tough Disney Choices - BOGP 2669

Mike & Pam are back today with some tough Disney choices to make you think here over the weekend! With the help of our BOGP Clubhouse, we put things in groups of three and had to cut one from the group! From snacks to shows to transportation options to classes of ships, and even the most classic of Disney attractions, we had a really, really hard time with this exercise! Which would you cut between Living with the Land, Spaceship Earth, and the Peoplemover? See what we are working with?
