1. what or where do you head for first...
Well since we're there, I usually look in the shops on Main Street first - well it would be rude not too....  then we just wander in,  we don't really have a plan.
2. what is your favourite Attraction...
Do the shops count?  I really like Splash Mountain,  Katie loves It's a Small World,  not sure if Phil has a favorite.
3. What is your favourite Land...
I don't really have a favorite, but we don't tend to spend much time in the one where the Pirates are - is that Adventureland - it seems to be hidden away and we never go there except specifically for Pirates (which is also a favorite)
4. Where do you like to eat...
We really liked Crystal Palace,  but for a quick meal you can't beat the Columbia Harbour House - decent food and loads of tables upstairs where you can sit down
5. do you ever just sit down and take in the magic, if so do you have a favourite spot...
We like the TTA as well,  but other than that I don't really sit down and chill out- I should make a mental note 'remember to sit'
6. do you like/watch the parades...
I do like the parades,  but I also like the short queues during parade times, so we do the parades once and ride the rides the other times.  I think my favorite was the Remember the Magic parade last year.

I just love MK and have to go every time we visit.

1. what or where do you head for first
Main Street has to come first as it leads to everywhere else. LOL. We stroll along just soaking up the atmosphere but after that we have no particular spot to visit first.

2. What is your favourite Attraction?
Well, I'm sorry folks but it has to be IASW! Not DH's though. LOL. Although we went on BTM for the first time last year and loved it. My favourites in the past also included Dreamflight and Carousel of Progress. It's a same they're gone. :cry:

3. What is your favourite Land?
Frontierland. (Wild west and all that sort of stuff).

4. Where do you like to eat?
That's a difficult one as we don't usually eat there.

5. Do you ever just sit down and take in the magic, if so do you have a favourite spot?
Anywhere there is a seat available!

6. Do you like/watch the parades?
Gosh yes. Couldn't miss those!

We always head straight up Main Street, saving the shops for later and then probably over to Tomorrow Land so Steve cn go on Space Mountain (I'm not in to rides like that).

Steve's fav is Space Mountain and Haunted Mansion but mine is Buzz Lightyear, Small World and the new Phillarmagic!

Haven't got a fav land, they're all great.

We haven't had a full meal anywhere in MK, but love the hot dogs in Casey's Corner and also burgers from Cosmic Rays. Went to DLP at Xmas and had Xmas lunch in Walt's Diner and watched the parade from an upstairs window seat.......amazing!! And brilliant food and service as well!

Love to sit outside Casey Corner and also near the Missippi steamer in Liberty Square.

Yes we always watch the parades. Saw Spectro Magic from the top of the steps at Main Street Railroad staion once. Brilliant spot to get photos and video, no body popping up in your view!

1. what or where do you head for first

Big Thunder Mountain or Space Mountain depending on the EE


2. what is your favourite Attraction

Philarmagic

3. What is your favourite Land

Frontierland though that bottleneck to BTM is a problem

4. Where do you like to eat

Have only eaten at Cinderellas Royal Table and whilst OK the lack of wine in full service restaurants just doesnt make for a romantic time, so probably wouldnt eat in MK again.. Not really fast food lovers so would probably go to another park or hotel for lunch or dinner.. Though I would love to hear peoples suggestions for the best little tasty snack to be had in the MK.

As Ploppy says above the MK desperatley needs a Walts on Main street like DLP one of my fave disney restaurants as you are actually in the MAGIC looking at mainstreet, eating beautiful food in a relaxing atmosphere..

5. do you ever just sit down and take in the magic, if so do you have a favourite spot.

Little cafes on main street, but not when its mad busy, watching the main street entertainers..


6. do you like/watch the parades

Yes..
