Why didn't any of you tell me how bad this place sucks? Crowds, morons, fatties, and more morons. The highlight of taking my kids to Disney was watching this fake camel every 30 seconds spit water on people. This one time the camel spit on this infant in a stroller being pushed by the dad and the mom laid into him "how in the hell did u not see that coming". Thank you camel for the 5 seconds of joy in this wasteland known as Disney World.
Go to the water parks, last time we took the lil one there were lots of Brazil cut bikinis and plenty of talent. Just by sheer coincidence we ended up behind this one hottie for about 6 rides in a row, climbing up them stairs, over and over. No idea how it worked out like that. ;-) Other than that, yeah, just enjoy the kids experience. And drink heavily whenever\wherever possible. Epcot beers around the world! Start in the fake UK and hit some high alky brew and whiskey. Time it so you get all the way around, good and hammered, right when they do the light show. And if possible, negotiate with the wife before you go. Start complaining when she first mentions it. My wife knows I don't like to go, so she ups the ante. Play your cards right and she'll be offering the VIP treatment at night. Even bought me a couple hours at the wave pool for the kook out soft top session. One last thing, at Blizzard Beach the big mofo water slides are pretty cool. The big vert drop one is cool but the one to the right is better IMO. You don't get your face blasted off and it stair steps down so you get that zero G effect a couple times. I slammed a bunch of bevs and rode that thing over and over. And there's hardly anyone in that line.
Fast pass, and go on the most crappiest day possible, during a tropical storm or something, and the place is yours. Spring Break, you're toast.
Next time take the family to the poor man's Disney: Wildwood, NJ Week of July 4th would be your best bet.
Ha, you are welcome. What I could not figure out is all the adults at the magic kingdom without kids. Picture this, last Tuesday during all the storms there are adults with parkas on sitting on the curb waiting for a mouse parade to start. Just sitting there getting poured on with no kids to give them an excuse for being there. Just weird.
Sic post bro. You painted a vivid picture for us with that dialogue between man and offspring-shedding wahine. So true, yet so wrong. Genius. Bravo braddah.
Yikes. If i ever have kids i'm going to take them some place tropical or something instead of anti-semetic mysoginy world. I heard its like $80 a person just to get in for the day. The adults there with no kids, sitting in the rain waiting for fuking disney parade? This is whats wrong with america people.
LOL...now that hit home. We hated tourists when I lived in PR. Especially surfing tourists just because they got in the way. But not the girls; those we took home. To be young again......
Yup, very expensive. When our daughter was 5, we went for 5 days. We had a ball, we did it for her; for her, I would do it again. But I had to keep my mouth shut, my attitude positive, and smile, whether I wanted to or not. I am glad I did it for her. She had a ball; she loved Space Mountain. I had to go again and again on Space Mountain because she was way too young to go alone.
When I lived down there as a kid, we had the family pass. We went so many times, I could care if I ever go again.
http://www.thisiscolossal.com/2015/08/dismaland/ I meant to post this a part of my first reply. The link to to a Banky art exhibition called "Dismaland". In his own words its "a crap theme park" ha
Yep, Typhoon Lagoon is the best part of Disney World. Plus there are plenty places to golf in and around the Lake Buena Vista area. [video=youtube;sq7IRTLLD_c]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sq7IRTLLD_c[/video]
It's a small world afterall The first time we took our daughter to Disney World was the best time out of a million times. To digress, I grew up in Floridey, and my Mom and Dad took me and my little brother (devil child) and sister there when it opened up in the 70s. Every summer. It was stupid at first, then got really stupid, "its a small world" was designed to make you talk. Then when I was a senior in high school we had grad nite, and our high school and a bunch of others all went at night in late May, and we brought all kinds of recreationals, and the bus ride up was mayhem, and the rides were awesome, and we never got throw out, I still can't figure out why they let us run amok. So between years in college durning the late 70s we drove up and dropped around Yeehaw Junction and it kicked in too early, around Kissimmee so all the lights from the honkey tonk hotels started to get real real trippy, and liquid, but some how we made into the Main Gate, then parked, me and my girlfriend. We parked way out at Dumbo 107 or something, and these three Iranian looking guys came up to us, and they saw my eyes and walked the other way. Then we got on the monorail and the dudes had no eyebrows they were robots, and we could sense a whole nothetr side of Disney, the underground plutonium enrichment secret place and we avoided that. Space Mountain was ridden may times that night, then we ended up In Top of The World drinking neon drinks. Some how we made it back to our motel room in Kissimmee and home safe and sound the next day. I did not go back for 20 years until I had a daughter, and it was awesome looking at it from her eyes. We snuck into the end of a parade on Main Street, and I played the air trombone while she did the air baton and my wife took photos. Years later during SIMA Expo, we saw Kaipo and Gavin surf Typhoon Lagoon in a contest. Years later I surfed it with buddies. One of the proudest moments in my life was when I asked my daughter when she was 11, if she would rather go to Disney World or the Bahamas fishing and diving and surfing, she picked the Bahamas. Thank God!
You have a sensible kid SISURFDOGG! Orlando was way better before Disney, just a sleepy town no one ever heard of.
