Not fair listening to all your DisneyWorld anecdotes; it's
been ages since last I was there. My son wasn't even born then, and now
he's 12 - a good age for Florida's delights. Our currency keeps dropping
drastically in relation to the Dollar - welcome to the Third
World.
Still, my lad and I *will* get there, even if it kills me (not
unlikely).
And here's the on-topic bit:
Let's follow the Disney example: Hire a bunch of students
who'll follow you around the house, cleaning up after you. Your
place, too, can be as clean 'n tidy as Mickey Mouse's "Main Street
USA".

Heather, we just came back from Disney so maybe I can
help you out. Magic Kingdom will entertain them the most but there are
also carnival type rides in animal kingdom. In dinoland there is a ride
that might scare her. It is in the dark & my 7 year old nephew was too
scared to get on-the T-Rex was just a little too close for him. I found
the ride enjoyable-that is if you like riding a mechanical bull. It really
threw you around a lot considering it just looked like a simple little car ride
like the one through It's a Small World. If the Winnie the Pooh ride has a
long line...skip it. Too boring & short for more than a 10 minute wait
(sorry Piglet-you know I dearly love you). MGM not Universal is what is
part of the Disney packages if that is what you have purchased. My kids
enjoyed the shows there & the ending show &am! p; fireworks were worth
waiting for. The fireworks at Epcot go off each night a night & are
worth going to just for that along with the lighted fountain display...that is
if you have the pass to come & go as you please. My kids really
enjoyed Epcot..not so much the countries (although they enjoyed the boat rides
in Mexico & I think there was one in Norway) but the rides & the
scientific hands on stuff to do. Downtown disney has the leggo store that
is pretty cool & a bunch of tables of leggos to play with & there is no
charge to go there. It is kind of like going to a boardwalk. We
spent the least amount of time in animal kingdom. We arrive early to see the
animals & then we shopped a little in the stores but it was very crowded so
the dinoland ride was all that we did & then left to go back to our pool at
the hotel & swim. We were at the All Star Movie Resort which is really
a great place to take kids.&! nbsp; There are giant statues of all of the
characters just everywhere. We were in Toy Story all week so I had to pass
a 3 story Buzz Lightyear & Woody every time I came & went. Well
your 3 days is now 2 so you might have already done all of this. Hope you
have a great time. Say hello to Piglet for me will you? I miss him
already.
Oinkingly yours, Debbie in Delaware
