On the other hand, Gatorland should serve as a reminder of what made Walt decide to develop Disneyland in the first place. And it is a gen-you-ine piece of Florida kitsch history

Why are you so negative about Gatorland? Is it because of the lack of fireworks?

That is a sure fire recipe for Disney trip disaster dessert of Unhappiest Place On Earth pie.

THESE ARE THE TRUEST WORDS EVER UTTERED!!
We made that mistake on our 1st trip & by the time we came home I was adamant that we would NEVER go back. Thankfully my DH was very persistent & I really wised up (thanks to MB ) about the importance of planning. That being said, we are very realistic & talk a lot ahead of time about what are "must-do" items & what we can skip. We also plan for some down time. Each year we also try to do at least a couple of "off the beaten path" or "best kept secret" activities. On our last trip it was the Chip & Dale Sing Along & Campfire at Ft. Wilderness- we LOVED it!! We packed smores supplies & enjoyed the sing along, the campfire & the movie. One of the best memories from all of our WDW trips!
