Originally Posted By stagemomx3 OH I want to know the answer to this as well. Is it worth it to skip a year at Disneyland, go to DW, then have to skip another year at Disneyland before going back?

If you like the Disneyland resort why would you not want to go to one that has twice as many parks, has water parks and loads of hotels and Disney restaurants and other activities. And then...shhhhh... there is Universal Orlando as well which is a great place to visit. And Sea World....and Kennedy Space Center....

Originally Posted By skywilliams I would skip a trip to Disneyland to go to Disney World but missing Disneyland two years in a row? That has to be a tough call. Even though the Magic Kingdom at Disney World is not even close to the Disneyland, the sheer amount of things to do makes up for it. Of course going to Disney World for less than 5 days would be a waste in my opinion. I have very fond memories of my two trips to Disney World but I am still a Disneyland guy through and through.

I agree with Daannzz, there is so much to do at WDW that it's absolutely worth missing 1 (or even 2) trips to DLR.
Originally Posted By junglejoy We gave up 16 months of DL to go to WDW and it was a good choice for us. But as soon as we got back, I started planning our next trip to DL. We loved WDW, but DL is first in our hearts. I'm glad we were able to see/experience WDW and I'm sure we'll go back, but are soooo happy to have DL APs again.
Originally Posted By nemopoppins We go to DL about 5 or 6 times during every other year as AP holders. Our AP's will expire after our last trip this year in July. We will then be going to WDW for our first time in November. I'm looking forward to it but I'm already looking forward to getting DL AP's again summer 2008.

Originally Posted By gurgitoy2 I would say that if you've not been to WDW before then you really should make the effort, even if it means no DL for a year or two. They are so different, it's worth it to go. Yes, the MK can't compare to Disneyland, but the overall resort experience is just so different, you owe it to yourself to go.
