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.

I appreciate Disney's effort in refurbishing things and don't want to sound too critical. But you have to admit those are a bit dated.
Magic Kingdom is getting the TRON Rollercoaster.....that's going to be a ton of updating there alone! Also - I am 235 days away from returning to the Grand Floridian! :dance:

yeah I read somewhere that Disney is going to spend $2.5 BILLION in the next 3 years on new rides and updates at Disney World. That's a ton of money for a friggin amusement park in a short time.

Disney ain't spending $2.5 BILLION to lose money.

But, parts of the park have aged and are out of date while ticket prices kept going up. They were pocketing the money instead of putting more into better and updated rides. They are just catching up because everyone is noticing the aged parts now.

Wellll thats kind of the consensus down here anyway. Also the Harry Potter success pushed them too.

IMO it’s mainly the front part of Epcot that has aged and became outdated

The other parks they have thrown a bunch of money at and updated or in the process of updating

Not as impressed with the Grand Floridian as much as I am Wilderness Lodge....

Call me cheap but I can enjoy a stay at a couple of the All Star resorts and feel I got my money worth more than I can at the GF.

To me...Spaceship Earth is "meh" now since they changed the Narrator from Walter Cronkite to Dame Judith Dench. If they were going to change it why not have different narrators for each change in an era?

And get some more modern voices....just so long as it isn't Neil Degrasse Tyson.

I'll be curious to see if they raise the cost of the yearly passes.

From like 2009-2013, the Deluxe Yearly Pass was $225 per year with parking at Disneyland.

Now, it's $619 per year with no parking (parking is about $17 dollars).

One of the rumors of why they raised the prices is because they are trying to cut down on overcrowding. But it’s not working much. It seems there is no magic price point where people will stop going to Disney

It's 10x worse than before they raised the prices because they allow monthly payments with 0% interest.

Pretty much any day of the week up until 2013 or so, there would be, at most, a 10 minute wait for any ride.

Now, wait times are at least 30 minutes, if not hours. We were in California Adventure a few years back and wanted to go on the Car ride but at 8pm at night, the wait time was 4 hours or pretty much the time the park closed for the day.

What's worse (and I'm sure I mentioned it before), the absolute sheer number of dumb ****ing parents taking their toddlers to Disneyland. I'm talking kids under 2 years old, that can't walk and can only qualify for a few rides, while slogging them around in HUGE strollers and in many cases, double wides for twins.

Couple that with 85-90 heat in the summer and I'm out. Can't do it anymore.

At Disneyland, the only passes that allow free parking are the Disney Signature, which is $849 and the Signature Plus, which is $1,049.

As I mentioned earlier, the Deluxe Pass at $229 a year included parking but since around 2014 or so, the Deluxe Pass jumped to $600+ and does not include parking.

Last time I was there was November 2014. It was busy but not too awfully bad. Stayed at the Grand Californian and took advantage of the early morning entry and the fast passes of course

Your right, the ungodly amount of strollers truly tests ones patience

I have Deluxe Annual Passes for my wife and kids but not for me. My wife takes them at least one day a month.

Even though it’s only a 30 minute drive outside of rush hour traffic, they stay at the Marriott Residence Inn (which is new and awesome, BTW) that’s a block from the entrance.

I went on Mother’s Day weekend last year and it was a zoo.
