Silly Q: How would you color code the parks?
What color do you think goes with each park?
Like for me, Animal Kingdom = Green
I'm color coding our schedule, and I was thinking MK = Red, DHS = Blue, Epcot ... I dunno.
I'm just curious how other people "see" the parks.
(I'm doing our schedule on a spreadsheet, and google docs lets me pick a color automatically based on content, which made me think of color-coding)
Tnx!

-
Animal Kingdom - green (obvious reason)
DHS - red (as in Hollywood's red carpet)
EPCOT - blue (World Showcase/big blue world)
MK - purple (simply because purple's my favorite color)
-
AK = green
DHS = silver (as in silver screen)
EP = blue (for the world showcase)
MK = purple (my fav colour, and a royal colour for the castle)

I have color coded my spread sheet to match the color coding of the calendars on the Disney website.
AK-green
Epcot - silver/gray
MK - purple
DHS - blue
But I like the idea of DHS being red....

We use the exact same color code to define which parks have EMHs on our planning calendar!

Where ARE the colored calendars on the disney website? I can't seem to find them?
P.S. question for you purple lovers -- has purple always been your fave color? My 12yo has always loved purple -- I sometimes think she was born loving purple.

Back in the day, before the WDW buses were "digitized", they used a "colored flag" system.
Does anyone remember what color signified which park/area?
I *think* MK was red flag, Epcot was blue flag, and Downtown Disney was a green flag (or maybe it was Ft. Wilderness/River country that was a green flag?).
This topic made me think of those buses...

They still use that system on the boats that go back and forth from Ft. Wilderness, Contemporary, and WL. I think the colors are red and green.
Anyway ... I have to say, this may be the oddest question I've ever seen on these boards ... but I kinda like it for some strange reason!
MK is red. Bright red ... Ferrari red.
Epcot to me is blue ... I've always found it to be an open, inviting kind of park and that says blue to me.
DHS? Black. Not sure why ... maybe because that's the color of my mood after trying to navigate my way around it's maze of winding pathways!
And I always think of AK as "green."

I am not sure, but it is the park calendars that have the hours on them. I'll have to look into it, they may have changed the site.

I can't tell if you are being serious....a lot of us put our Disney Vacation on a spreadsheet. Includes park hours, dining reservations, dining times and confirmation #'s, which parks are open for EMH, parties, flight info....phone numbers. It is truly a critical element of the planning....
And I highly recommend it....

But I like the idea of DHS being red....
I looked at the calendars a couple of days ago and they all just had a white background.
My color picks for the shreadsheets and my scrapbooking are:
AK - green
Epcot - blue
DHS - red
MK - purple and pink (princess overload)

No color coding spreadsheets for us. Just a red and purple flexible schedule to guide us through the day so we don't miss ADR's and planned events. It does include confirmation #s just in case we need them. Plus the kids enjoy looking them over on the drive down.
