[quote=Anonymous]Disney has always rewarded planning and touring strategy. Many of the tips I learned for my first trip in 2004 are still applicable today - wake up early, hit your “E ticket” must do attractions early, save the hot afternoons for shows and dining and relaxing, and use LL during peak seasons. If you don’t care for fireworks or parades, use those times to knock out more must do attractions. Now that I’m a parent, it helps to be familiar with the park IP and to have kids (or memories of being a kid) where seeing your favorite character or ride come to life feels truly magical. People are right when they say the rides are better elsewhere. What Disney does best is theming and family entertainment, and they truly are the best in the business at what they do. I think people get disappointed when they stay offsite, show up at 11 am during peak times, plan to “wing it”, and still expect to ride everything. Or they spend thousands of dollars on extras like Bibbity Bobbity Boutique and Cinderella’s Castle for their single park day and then wonder where the time went. Or they over schedule their kids well past their limits. Or, they discover for the first time at Disney, that their families simply do not enjoy theme parks and get sick on every ride. Go visit Busch Gardens or Kings Dominion for a day first to see if this sort of thing is even fun for you! It’s not for everyone. [/quote]
