This story was one that made you really relax. Sam's not in trouble. He's not in constant fear. He's just there. I couldn't help but giggle at some of those comments though. They were great. It was a wonderful job ladies!
RATING: 9.5

It's great seeing Sam finally getting somewhat of a break from all of the recent goings-on in The Virtual Seasons. Walt Disney World... that's definitely a place I never would have really thought of placing Sam in. But it seems to work so far. Eleiece has already established herself as a solid writer, and I've become a fan of Jennifer's work since reading her stories from The Starbright Project and the "Stardust" series that was on the site this summer.
Nice how it links back to several of the more recent leaps as well. Looking forward to reading Part II. Great job, you two!
RATING: 9.0

I am glad to see that Sam is in a Leap where things aren't as dire, interesting about the memories of his failures. I am sure by the end of this Sam will be much better mentally, even Al. Great job!
RATING: 8.0

Wow! It's so wonderfully written! But then what else do you expect from Eleiece and Jennifer! I've been a big fan of both of their stories for a long time and it's nice to read a collaboration between them. Although I've never been to Walt Disney World, I have a friend who describe some of her experiences, especially the Tower of Terror. Her description and the description in this story makes me want to go there right now!
Yes, it's great to see Sam having a little fun for a change, especially since he's a "meganerd", as Al once put it. And Al definitely needs a vacation; he's got far too much on his mind.
Overall, a great story! Can't wait to read part 2!
RATING: 8.5

Thanks to the writers for finally giving Sam a taste of a break. He certainly has been put through some tough times over the past few leaps and it was nice to see him relax. Since this episode has a sequel, I guess we will see exactly why he has leaped into Walt Disney World.
Al, on the other hand, looks like he needs a vacation of his own. At least he can get along with the Visitor on this leap. Too bad Verbena went on vacation since she would probably enjoy seeing such an agreeable Visitor for once.
The interaction between Al and Howie was so well written, not to mention the rest of the episode. You two have written a wonderful episode and I'm sure the ones to follow will meet the same standards.
RATING: 9.0
