Fast pass: Rock - translates best to a roller coaster
Standby: Country - hate the "newer" country though, and that's probably what they'd pick
Skip: Pop
Thinking about Zootopia or Chicken Little type movies, with all non human characters, but living in "human civilization", and which area would be more interesting for the next story:
Scandinavia (Reindeer, Arctic Fox, lemmings, etc)
America - Grand Canyon region (Wolves, Jaguars, Bighorn Sheep, etc)
South America/Brazil - Tapirs, Capybara, several monkeys, etc) |

Fast pass: Triple digits, normal humidity (this needs an asterisk, "normal humidity" in Florida is still pretty darn high!), sunny all day.
Standby: Triple digits, high humidity, with cooling rains
Skip: 60's with showers and 10? swings - sounds perfect to me!

Anger - Ms Piggy. Donald. Tigger
Disgust - Statler/. Daisy. Rabbit
Waldorf
Fear - Gonzo,. Goofy,. Piglet |

Fast pass: Chile
Standby: Australia (although the current regime in charge would likely never let them open)
Skip: South Korea - afraid something so massively western as a Disney park would look like a huge target to North Korea.

Fast pass: Design a ride with an imagineer - this would be as educational as it would be fun.
Standby: Put together a menu for a food and wine booth (hopefully with a little assistance from a trained chef)
Skip: Design a gingerbread house at Grand Floridian - would be fun, too, just think I'd enjoy the others a little more!
Ride queues that are most in need of some distractions to break their monotony:
Big Thunder Mountain
Test Track

This is hard!
Fastpass: Tower of Terror (a long queue that's not only quickly boring but really humid.)
Standby: Test Track (once you get past the initial area, its just bland walls with unreliable internet)
Skip: Thunder Mountain (I don't mind this one so much, but adding some shade to the outdoor queue area would be fab)

Always go to the same park 1st day
