Living with someone or always being around 2nd hand smoke may possibly cause cancer over some extreme length of time, but walking past a smoker here and there is not going to cause it. If that were the case I would have had cancer 36 years ago as a smoker since then.
And I can get by a couple hours without smoking, but after that I'm really wanting one. And after eating is for sure a required one and same for when I first wake up. But it could have been dealt with in a better way with both limiting the locations and moving them to a better secluded area. Like 4 locations in each park N, S, E and W... close to the edge of the parks in little cul de sacs or something of that nature.
And of course my decision is going to ride on this new ban. Yes I'm a smoker and yes it's addictive, thus why I can't go but a couple hours before needing one. But that's also pushing myself to not smoke more frequent and feeling irritated inbetween. And looking at spending upwards of $15,000 for a 2 week stay and the find out I would be forced to walk all the way out of the parks each time I want a smoke? Heck yea I'm thinking of going someplace else. Why would I want to pay that much money and be frustrated with having to go out of the park, back through the entrance which will have long lines, each and every time I feel the need for a smoke? Not to mention the walk itself when I have disabilities. For MK I figure a walk to the front and then back could be upwards of 30 - 45 minutes with taking into account the distance + crowds. The "other" nearby non Disney parks still have DSA's.
