Here's a calender for the month of August: http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw...onthlyViewPage I would guess it gets dark around 9:00pm.
My favorite ride at night in the MK
would have to be Big Thunder Mountain, although I love WEDway anytime and now after reading 2tinners I want to go to the HM
at night
!!!

Big Thunder Mountain would have to be my favorite. Especially when they have the fire going on Tom Sawyers Island, I love that. I was close to saying Splash Mountain but there is just not enough of ittat is outside for me the drop is great but it you get a view for like 5 seconds and then its done.

Splash Mountain, coming to the top of the big drop and seeing the castle all lit up and fireworks in the sky
It's our problem-free philosophy Hakuna Matata!
I've been to Disney World 22 times and can't wait to go back!

yo ho yo ho a pirates life for me!

I would say Splash Mountain, especially if you just happen to time it as the first firework from Wishes comes over the castle as you go over the drop. It makes you say "oooooh aaaaaAAAAAH!!!!"
Dead men smell like whales...

I love getting to the top of the big drop on Splash Mountain and looking across and seeing Space Mountain and the castle all lit up right next to each other just as you take the final plunge.
Even though its not in MK, I also love Tower of Terror at night, it makes it more spooky.

I voted Splash Mountain. I have great memories of the DWT girls trip plus Tampa, all of us riding on Splash Mountain over and over again, it was quiet, except, you know, when we were screaming!!!
I am in need of some Disney magic!!

I have to go with Splash Mountain on this, and for one main reason... THE SONG.

9/2004 - Polynesian - first time at WDW! 10/2005 - Not the Polynesian (Port Orleans) 12/2006 - 1/2007 - Polynesian - Christmas & New Year's!
10/2008 - Polynesian for Halloween!

Space Mountain...just kidding folks.
I believe that the Jungle Cruise is much better at night. It just gives it more atmosphere.
