[quote=Anonymous]I think it’s fine either way but it is pretty amazing and when you really think about what they do and compare it to other theme parks (of which I’ve been to many), I’m actually surprised the cost isn’t more.  To take one example….in the avatar area, they have created a whole world that integrates natural plants from around the world with fake elements and lighting and sound to create a 360 experience of being on a different planet. And the avatar ride where you are flying is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced—it arguably  feels more like flying than paragliding does.

I’ve been to some pretty magical places as far as natural beauty or even architectural wonders (Bukhara, zagorst, the Alhambra, the York Minster—all amazing).  But disney is really a unique combination of man-made engineering, imagination and sheer determination.  If someone can dream it, they can design it.  It’s hard to put a price on some of the things they offer.  My kids are teens but they still love the rides and design elements.

It’s also a nice complement to other vacations.  I mean, after you’ve been to a few world class art museums, does it add that much to go to another (assuming you aren’t art historians or something)?  Same for cathedrals, gorgeous mountains, etc.  I’m a huge National Parks geek and we hit all the big ones and many of the small ones but even I admit that they start to blur together a bit at some point.
