And all the Bugs' rides/attractions.That’s actually a plus for Disneyland and a negative for Walt Disney World. It means greater ride quantity per park, which means more bang for your buck and better guest distribution, which means less time wasted in lines.
What rides have we lost at Disneyland as of late? Splash Mountain? Yeah that one stung, but guess where else we lost that? Mike and Sully to the rescue? Yeah it’s not ideal, but it was a bandaid solution retheme and the park is at least getting two additionally family friendly dark rides to compensate.
DLR and WDW are two different resorts parks. They have had the same number of rides. But for WDW, which has four parks, it has to spread them out among all four parks. Compared to just Disneyland, it makes each park -- on its own -- look anemic... from a certain point of view. But from the view of the whole resorts, it's equal in rides. It's also funny how you point this out as if this wasn't a well-known fact for decades.
So, when looked at in toto, they are equal in the number of rides. However, when you also consider the number of non-ride attractions, WDW blows DL out of the water.
