Walt Disney World
My wife and I will be taking 2 small children to Walt Disney World in Florida in 2 weeks. I get to go as a bonus thru my work. We are staying at the Hilton. My question is what is the weather like down there in January? Any good ideas on what to see and do with twins that are 2 years old? I am kind of looking forward to it. A chance to get out of Iowa in January. Oh well, enought blabbing. Any responses are greatly appreciated.

Hotel Tower of Terror is a great ride!

Tower of Terror bores me. heh After you ride it once, it just loses its appeal.

Aerosmith Rockin roller coaster was excellent though.

It's been the same thing since inception.

I've never been to Disney during Halloween nor have I attended Universal's Halloween Horror Nights.

Last year I went to Busch Garden's Howl-O-Scream and it was interesting.

They've tinkered many times over the years with the number of drops, the frequency of dropping, how far you drop and whether the "elevator" shakes or not.

When it first opened you would get raised up, the doors would open and you'd be staring at a darkened wall that looked to be covered by ficus. Then you'd drop. A good drop. Next you'd be raised all the way to the top, the doors would open and you'd look out on the entire park. And you'd look. And you'd look. THEN YOU'D DROP. All the way down. A great drop.

Now you drop more often, but they're much smaller drops and the frequency is nearly constant such that you don't really get that "stomach rising" sensation. You also don't get to "look out" anymore. You go up, the doors open (or are already open) and before they're all the way open you're dropping again.

I took my kids to W'burg Busch Gardens for Halloween one year--they spook it up pretty good starting about dusk. The teens at the park really get into it--I recall walking towards a wall to take a sit-break, and my 8 year old son was beside me. The (apparent) inanimate clown sitting on the wall winked at me as my son and I sat down, he next to this "clown". After a few moments, this clown suddenly turned and hissed flashing a wicked toothy grin at him. I thought my son had pissed his pants, and he nearly knocked me over trying to backpedal. We still get a charge out of that. I recommend one of these fright nights to any who love Halloween!

Yeah, they do a good job. They had a bunch of "haunted houses" setup throughout the park and each was different and well done. They also had "haunt zones" setup such that you couldn't walk from one part of the park to any other without passing through at least one of these zones. The makeup and costumes were great.

I did notice that we didn't get up high enough to really see out the doors. I guess I do kind of remember the drop being longer. Probably why I really didn't enjoy it this year. With it being 13 years, I couldn't really remember anything but dropping a few times.

What made this memorable for me this year was my 6 year old exclaiming "That was SO not fun" after it ended.
