Originally Posted By tripplanner I made a list of rides/shows at each park. I didn't know they still had a country bear jamboree. I was sad to see that go at Disneyland. I didn't see a huge list at Epcot, so will skip that, but the Magic Kingdom with the new Fantasyland looks cool, Mickeys Philharmagic?, Monsters Laugh Floor, Stitches Great Escape and Hollywood Studios had shows I'd never heard of, like The Legend of Cpt Jack Sparrow and The Great Movie Ride, animal Kingdom had Kilimanjaro safari, Expedition Everest, and Nemo show. Any of those NOT to waste my time on? I love Disney plays so was hoping to take in Beauty and the Beast and Festival of the Lion King.

Originally Posted By tripplanner I just made reservations for lunch at Sci Fi. We will start at Hollywood Studios what park is easiest to get to from there? I'll not miss Ghiradelli. Where is it?
Originally Posted By FenwayGirl If you have time, try and go to Epcot..not a lot of rides, but the World Showcase is worth the trip
Originally Posted By Autopia Deb Skip the Stitch attraction, if you do it anyway hunch your shoulders up as the restraints come down. Personally I prefer Festival of the Lion King to the Nemo show, but I know of others who feel differently.
Originally Posted By tripplanner Thanks Autopia Deb. I really don't know the Orlando parks or rides. I'm a DL kid. How's the Cpt Jack Sparrow experience? Is the Lion King like the Broadway play?
Originally Posted By Autopia Deb I don't know anything about the Jack Sparrow experience. FotLK is a really fun, interactive floor show. Lot's of singing, dancing, tumbling and audience participation. Nemo, is like a straight retelling of the movie with giant puppets, very impressive puppetry much like the Aladdin show at DCA.
