Thanks for asking, Pumba. We have passes because we live in the area and got a fantastic deal on them. Plus it's nice to have an alternative when Disney gets over-run. We love the Universal side. IOA is a different story. I'll just brush off your attitude comment as snide ignorance.

We just returned from a visit to IOA. There are many problems. The attractions are sporadic. You can walk through Marvel and find a pretty decent amount to do. If it's a little chilly or it's raining, Toon Lagoon is a giant waste of time and space. Jurassic Park screams wasted potential...

If the original poster reads this, be sure you're a hardcore coaster enthusiast before getting on The Hulk. I've been to parks all over and it's easily one of the most intense coasters I've ever been on. Fun if you love constant inversions and speed, but it's rough and unrelenting. Just a...

I'm not out to correct anyone, but I-Drive is in fairly bad shape as far as safety. Police cite the area as a target for gangs, especially the northern stretch near Wet n' Wild and Universal. Crime stats in several news reports say "there were 95 robberies, 133 burglaries, 94 aggravated...

It's probably been posted elsewhere, but the mailer I got says Wonders of Life will serve as the Wine Festival welcome center and tasting area, instead of the area around Club Cool.

As I see it, the only way to get results is to talk to the right people. Who do we email? The more of us who pile on, the more likely our success. That said, the Wand never bothered me. It never bothered most people I know. However, Leave a Legacy is rather unsightly. It's a good idea but...

This is straying from your question, but JDM ventured into this territory. Have you been to Cap'n Jack's before? I only ask because I've heard nothing but bad things about it, from professional reviewers to close friends of ours who got sick after eating there. Maybe the place has improved...

Discovery Cove is beautiful and memorable, but overpriced to the point I almost consider it a ripoff. There are two kinds of admission: with or without the "dolphin encounter." We went on our honeymoon and splurged with the dolphin encounter. This is approximately 30 minutes spent in a pool...

For me it's a tie between Test Track and Primeval Whirl. So many people talk smack about those rides that I expected them to be terrible. I like Test Track...I LOVE Primeval Whirl.

Yeah, the internet is never wrong. Anyway, the numbers probably come from Disney's media site, which is as current and relevant as it apparently is accurate.

As we left, we saw some people being directed to park in the grass outside the Polynesian (across from the Golf Course)....which I thought odd since there were spaces open in TTC

I think a day of rain kept a lot of people away. We left Epcot before the fireworks because we were simply worn out.

Someone asked if the immigrants were allowed to spend time in the parks.. I was at Epcot today and saw a few of them posing for photos with their certificates and flags. What a great day for them! Many of them were dressed in suits and the like, so I don't think they stayed too long in the...

Not a popular movie? Don't tell that to those who live the goth lifestyle? I really don't make a point of getting offended, but without naming names I can count on some pretty ignorant statements every time this subject gets regurgitated. I love the movie. My whole family does. Many of my...

Hummer, I'm with you in that I just rode Disneyland's version a couple weeks ago for the first time. You should have seen the on-ride photo. It looked like a human version of this :eek: I was in awe. I couldn't wipe the stupid smile off my face for an hour. While I really enjoy "our"...

California Grill is a magnificent place to eat and offers great views of the parks and in particular, Wishes. Victoria and Albert's is much more pricey but defines elegance. This link offers many ideas for fun, not all of them romantic, but all of them great... http://allearsnet.com/tp/ola.htm

The answer to your question depends on a lot of things, primarily, when are you going? If the answer is July-August, you'll be hard pressed to do it all given the crowds and the wear and tear of Florida's heat and humidity. As for ranking the parks, each one has something great to offer...

I expand my response to most disappointing attraction. Rafiki's Planet Watch. I am not a fan of Stitch's Great Escape or Honey I Shrunk the Audience, but at least those attractions have SOME redeeming value in my eyes. Rafiki's Planet Watch is a giant waste of space and time. It is a black...

That's funny. I thought this section of the board was called news and rumors. Forgive me but if nothing else, the poster in question has injected some life into this sometimes vapid and always cynical board. (It took what, two posts before we got to the umpteenth gripe about the wand?) Just...

I HIGHLY recommend Boma. There's something there for everyone, and the Animal Kingdom Lodge which hosts the restaurant is a site unto itself.
