cookie6 Posted November 30 Author Report Share Posted November 30 We arent planning on doing more than 1 park a day. We will be going with parents so we dont want to jump around too much. I def want to check out Epcot the second day and Pleasure Island at night...still not sure about the first day.One of my co-workers just got back from Disney Monday and she suggested to stear clear of Magic Kingdom. She said it was WAY too packed and they spent most of the day waiting on very long lines.She highly suggested Sea World and Animal Kingdom. I would love to go see the animals (espesh the monkeys ) but I also heard there are a ton of great shows and rides at Sea World.For those of you that have been to both...what do you suggest?

cookie6 Posted November 30 Author Report Share Posted November 30 of course magik kindom was packed, it was along weekend so a lot of people headed out to the parks. since, i assume, you guys are going over christmas, you will also find big lines in every park.next time you guys plan to go to orlando do it when school is still in and on a weekday and you will be breezing through the lines in every park. w3rd.Yep we're going 2 days after christmas so we are expecting it to be packed. We werent planning on going to Disney but since we will be in Southern Florida for 10 days we figured we would break it up a little and go for 2 days.Next time we will go on an off week to avoid the madness.I am super excited like a lil girl though because I've never been Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lolahotass Posted November 30 Report Share Posted November 30 busch is my fav park in all of florida... it doesn't matter what park you go too - the bottom line is, its going to be packed. you should go to each website and look around and make your decision there. Definately hit up Epcot though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weyes Posted November 30 Report Share Posted November 30 Yep we're going 2 days after christmas so we are expecting it to be packed. We werent planning on going to Disney...that's my b'day! i've wanted to go to disneyland on my b'day for years now (i live about 10 mins. away) but just nixed the idea, figuring that it'd be too crowded to be enjoyable. please do make sure and tell us about your trip when you come back, whether you go to disney or not; i'll get a better idea about next year. and i hope you have a great time!apparently they have one in williamsburg, va - i had no clue.i didn't know they had one in florida !
