    If you were relocating. . .

    Golden Oaks is a great place to live. I'm not going to pretend it's not expensive, because it is, but it is a phenomenal community and there are some really wonderful people that live there.

    Let's keep it simple, your favorite park is???

    Exactly. Other than the Harry Potter areas, it's just a bunch of randomly thrown together rides with no real feel of immersion or flow. Again, the Harry Potter areas are the execpetion and are simply the best that I've experienced anywhere.

    So when people complain about the standard of food within the parks .........

    I've been fortunate to have eaten there countless times over the years and I can tell you that it is worth every penny and will likely be one of the highlights of your trip. Take your time and savor it!

    Let's keep it simple, your favorite park is???

    I love Disney and always will. I actually prefer Epcot to MK, but that's a whole other conversation.... That being said (and much to the dismay of many people here) I think that the entire Harry Potter experience at Universal is simply unbeatable as far as immersion and overall atmosphere. I...

    Safe Areas to Live Near WDW 15-25 Min Away

    We have a home in the Marceline neighborhood of Golden Oaks. It is a wonderful area to be in, if it is in your budget. I never tire of the parks, although I tend to go less in the height of summertime when it is blazing hot. Epcot is nice to visit for dinner and a stroll in the evenings when...

    Do you get the feeling universal is one step ahead of Disney

    Whether Universal is "ahead" of Disney is a matter of perspective I think. The entire Harry Potter experience is simply unbeatable in my opinion. Between the rides, the shops and the restaurants, it's an incredibly immersive environment. That being said, Disney as a whole has a more polished...

    worst ride experiance

    It's a Small World After All. There's a long queue because it's summertime (August) and everyone is hot and miserable. We are about half way through when I hear "" super loud in front of me. About 3 people away there is a child of about 6, with his pants down, going to the bathroom (#2)...

    So why exactly did Disney ruin Journey Into Imagination?

    Same reason they destroyed Pirates, Hall of Presidents....etc probably. They think everything needs updating at some point. I don't agree, but my view is biased since there is a lot of nostalgia involved for me.
