La Cava inside has much, much better drinks. The avocado margarita is the best!

You still have a Bass Ale @ Great Britian & a Moosehead in Canada. Then... Stumble on out of the door...

Also, you may know that the vecinity of WDW does have some great theme parks that currently match (or in some cases) surpass the experiences found at the dated MK park. >>>Heck I just like arriving in Orlando because I know what awaits me.<<<< That is the problem with WDW.. you *know* what awaits. There is NO MORE exceeding my expectations with new and surprising adventures/shows/attractions etc etc. In that regards.. WDW = fail!

That I'm on vacation. That a trip to WDW is very rare for me these days. I was actually going to go down there next weekend but decided against it. I'm disappointed that I can't go but next year I have an opportunity to go to Ireland for the first time. And as much as I love WDW that's just not something I can pass up.

Allow me to HIGHLY recommend the Blood Orange as well as (my personal favorite) the Jalapeno.
