For those that have been there, I would be interested in knowing your impressions... it sure is an interesting place... The prices for food are ridiculous, in my opinion... but oh well... a couple of sandwiches, chips, and cokes... $32.00 ... that sort of pricing... The crowds... lots and lots and lots of people... and so many different languages being spoken all around you! ... gave the place a kind of exotic feel... and most were so polite! Lots of smiling and holding open doors and offering seats... I love people watching anyway, and this was the best place I have ever been to do that... The employees.... The Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, and MGM were amazing... they were all smiles and so helpful and patient... the EPKOT employees need to be retrained... rude, inpatient, and downright surly in a couple of cases... I am sure there has to be an explanation for all this... different owners or management or ???... no clue... but the difference was dramatic... night and day... The transportation system is awesome... you can get anywhere, at any time... easily... The rides.... The most intense .... I am going to say Mission Space... when they launch you, Whoa!! .... you KNOW you have been launched! Tragically, they had a death on the Rock N Roller Coaster the day after we rode the ride.... still haven't heard the details... but that roller coaster has one of the most intense beginnings of any coaster I have been on.... not as impressive the second time because you know what's coming... but that baby zips right along! Soarin' ... too cool... you are in a hang glider over California... different places in California... Big Sur, Frisco, the central valley, Napa Valley... Borego.. Malibu... made me homesick! Tower of Terror is cool... too short of a ride IMHO, but well done... Space Mountain... been there, done that (at DisneyLand) but it was fun and air conditioned so that one got rode twice... .... and tons of other stuff... 3D shows, tours, the stunt shows, and all the other attractions... The light and fireworks and parades are awesome... I thought my feet were going to fall off... but other than that all went great... had some rain, but it is Florida in June eh... so expected and planned for... so no problem...

Marc, I agree with Sherry...about the prices...I know that they may be high, but remember this is your last honeymoon...unless, you plan on taking future honeymoons with this one special lady...hehe... FYI...if you are still there...the 4th of July fireworks are spectacular at Disney World, but the transportation system gets snarled up if you are planning on leaving after the Fireworks...so do plan on staying awhile afterwards...because, I can literally say...been there and done that!!!!!! If you can, do go to SeaWorld...that place is awesome too...Have a great time and hope that you do enjoy yourselves!!! Norma
