    The thing that always bothered me about Disney World (never been to Disney Land so I don’t know if it’s the same) is that it always felt like there were more shops and restaurants than actual attractions. After having been there a few times between school trips and family vacations, I found myself getting bored during the last couple of visits.

    Although I do have issues with depression, so I’m operating from a lower baseline than average, but still - bored in Disney World. It’s just an outdoor mall with a few interesting rides.

      Definitely the same way with Disneyland, but I think it kind of makes sense because attractions take up a lot more space, so you can’t have as many.

      And Disney has always been about squeezing money out of people.

        I do still want to go Drinking Around the World in Epcot, though. So they might still end up squeezing a little more cash out of me.

          I do admit it’s a bit overwhelming to walk past two gift shops to get to a ride, get out of the ride and see that the ride also has a gift shop that you are forced to walk through in order to exit.

            Disney is just teaching children the value of self restraint

            /s though it really feels like I don’t need that

      If you’re in Orlando your top priority should be Gatorland, not Disney World.

        It should actually be the springs…then absolutely Gatorland…with the best entrance that’s the same since the 90’s at least

        I had a great time going to that little Disney Springs strip mall in Orlando. Nice shopping, some good restaurants, and no wait lines for overhyped attractions.
