I wholeheartedly agree -- it's not like there isn't material already, and seemingly more each year MK doesn't get upgraded or we lose more live entertainment. And occasionally, WDW throws us a bone with something pretty cool. I know I am looking forward to Midway Madness...it isn't a world beater, but I'll take something over nothing any day.

I went over to WE to find interesting debates on different World Events. All I found was beligerant hatred. I lasted about a week before I couldn't take it anymore. That's a shame because that forum could be the most interesting one on LP if it didn't have all the hostility. >> If we're going to joust at all here in WDW_ lets do it over shoddy maintenance, Poo playgrounds and refillable mugs.

Crowds will be low, and the bargains will be high. That buy 4 nights package, and get 7 plus a Two hundred dollar gift certificate is hard to pass up. With all my complaints about the World I still miss going. I haven't seen SSE with out the Epcot tagging nor the inside yet. Still haven't seen the excellent refurb of HM yet. I would especially be looking forward to riding Midway Madness it looks like a very fun ride, and the queue as well as the entire Pixar Place. Just to get away from everything that is going on in the world right now, and take a lesisurely stroll around The World Showcase Lagoon would be worth the price. I agree with you. I get lost in the peace I find when I'm there. I only wish they would reinstate the true Disney standards of maintainence, and cleanliness once again.

Originally Posted By bobbelee9 ^^Agreed. With crowds being expected to be down, and offering 4 +3, will they be cutting back on anything? Like hours, entertainment, closing some rides? That would be a downer.

They did on the Kilimanjaro Safari. I thought I was going to be gone for 2 weeks, and I was back in 15 minutes!

I don't know if those hours will be cut or if the extra morning, and evening hours will go away. Some entertainment has definetly already been cut.

I don't like you Dave, but I'm not going to make judgment calls on how you do your job, because I don't have any clue how you perform your job, just like you have absolutely no idea how I perform mine - unless you disguise yourself as a 10 year old and sit in my classroom every day. And if you did, you'll realize all the assumptions you make about me are pure unadulterated GARBAGE. You're completely unprofessional.
