FQ, for reasons mentioned previously, the resort's compact size and the bus advantages, not to mention the decor and theming. Have stayed at RS twice, and there's nothing wrong with it, but prefer FQ. Next trip: Nov. 29-Dec. 5 POFQ:xmas:

Week after. That's when we are going this year. All the holiday stuff is in full swing. As for Thanksgiving dinner, the one year we were at the MK for Thanksgiving we ate at Crystal Palace. Next trip: Nov. 29-Dec. 5, POFQ:xmas:

We'll be there Nov. 29-Dec. 5 at POFQ. We can't wait!:xmas:

Animal Kingdom. We never spend a full day there. Next visit: Nov. 29-Dec. 5, POFQ:xmas:

We have stayed at both, including a stint at Alligator Bayou in 2005. We prefer POFQ because it is more compact. It is a long walk from Alligator Bayou to the PORS main building, if you choose not to wait for the bus. Hope this helps. Next trip: Nov. 29-Dec. 5, POFQ:xmas:

I have seen several gators at the various WDW golf courses, particularly the Palm and Magnolia. A playing partner told the tale of hitting his ball into a pond in front of a par 3 at the Magnolia, and being confronted by a gator when he went to try and retrieve his ball. Needless to say he left...

Eating Mickey bars, riding Test Track as many times as possible (single-rider line speeds up the process), riding SSE mere minutes after arriving at Epcot, breakfast at Chef Mickey's (along with plenty of character photos), dinner at Chefs de France and Nine Dragons, watching Wishes, taking in...

You can get a free taxi ride to any WDW course. Just check with the bell desk for a voucher. Under a new program, club rentals are free for anyone staying on property, so you don't even have to bring your sticks. All the courses are great, you can't go wrong with any of them. Lake Buena Vista...

Christmas is the best You will love Christmas at WDW. Besides MVMCP, The Osborne Family spectacle of lights, the Candlelight Processional (truly stirring), there are the holiday storytellers at the different countries in EPCOT, plus the decorations in all the parks, and in the resorts. It is...

Early December's a good time to go, all the decorations and holiday festivities, but without the elbow to elbow crowds of the week between Christmas and New Year's. Next trip: Nov. 29-Dec. 5, POFQ

Impressions de France has the best music of any Epcot show, but the old Listen to the Land music was the best of any ride, followed closely by Imagination and Horizons. Next trip: Nov. 29-Dec. 5, Port Orleans French Quarter:)

My wife and I would be at EPCOT, probably riding Test Track and thinking about chowing down on a couple of Mickey ice cream bars afterwards. 298 days until our next trip. Nov. 2009, Port Orleans French Quarter.

Walt Disney World is the best. Every other theme park is striving to live up to Disney's standards, but all fall short. The entire Disney experience is magical. It makes us feel like kids again, and it has everything — rides, characters, great food, outdoor activities, water parks, etc. What...

Epcot's the one We generally always start, and end, at Epcot. It's our favorite. Last trip: May 2008, Port Orleans French Quarter Next trip: Fall 2009:kiss:

When I was a kid, I dreamed of going to Disneyland. I was a Mickey Mouse Club member (complete with my own set of ears) and a faithful viewer of "Wonderful World of Color." When I became an adult I vowed I would go to Disneyland. I've yet to make it, but made my first trip to WDW in 1983. I have...

I start getting fired up about a Disney trip from the day it is booked. We watched the video of our last trip (Nov. 2006) and it was all we could do to not start driving to the airport. Our countdown calendar has reached 64 days. We can't wait! Our first stop will be Epcot.:animwink: Next...

We have stayed at both, and there is little difference in the rooms. French Quarter is more compact, is first on the bus route and the pool (and slide) are great. The grounds of French Quarter are more attractive than Riverside. Next trip: May 20-27. POFQ:p

Dinosaur is a keeper.:wave:

WDW Traditions We always go to Epcot first and last, it's our favorite. We always eat breakfast once at Chef Mickey's, and dinner at as many World Showcase restaurants as we can. Mickey Bars are almost a daily treat. Can't miss rides are POTC, Test Track, Haunted Mansion, and others. An evening...

French Quarter Being of a similar age, I would recommend French Quarter. It's compact, quiet and beautiful. Riverside is nice, too, but a bit too spread out for those of us who are getting, shall we say, a little older.:p
