But you get that anywhere in Britain where there are tourists. Certainly it's all over central London. You can't blame people for trying to make a buck (sorry euro) and you can easily ignore them - it's not as if they take up much space.

Disney Cruise Line VIP!

Agree. I had a really bad experience in US this year but I wouldn't tell people not to waste their money .. each person has different experiences, mine was bad but the next persons could be good.
In 3 weeks time, the Lakeside Lushes (me, Vron, Leanne1977, Treacle, Rusty, June, EmzD and Stephwa) plus my whole family will all be going to DLP .. we're planning a riotous time so the French had better beware! Oh, and Tracey and I have studied Spanish so we'll revise our swear words and also look up 'get to the back of the queue' while we're at it! Can't wait! Watch out DLP

We didnt see anywhere near as much smoking in florida and pushing in at parades wasnt a problem...
The characters have 'minders' which organise people so its not just a free for all...much better.

Well i have been to the Magic Kingdom numerous times and each time we sit and reserve a spot for the parades..(day and evening) and we have always seen people attempting to push in.
Yes the characters are mostly better organised on WDW.. but queue jumping exists still. You had a bad trip.. but doesnt mean others will. |

We had a bad trip yes but others will also...
How can you 'join in' pushing to get your 1 year old daughters picture taken...you cant unless you want to risk them getting hurt. This also upset them because we couldnt 'join in'... As for the smoking - even my 1 year old was coughing and complaining (crying) as the smoke was getting in her eyes...what gives the grotty europeans the right to do this to my kids? In Florida we hardly had anyone smoking and if they did they where quickly told they couldnt smoke... If people read this thread and it makes them think twice because of the points I have mentioned then hopefully they will thank us as Florida is SO much more Disney and SO much better in all respects

As many bad trips as there are, there are many more great trips. I went to DLP for my first time last week and had a superb time. I guess everyone is different, but I would say it's worth trying once - as long as you don't expect it to be Florida (it isn't) or go with any anti feeling towards people who don't speak Englsih (lots don't, but then it's France).

To be honest looking at some of the replies the only people who disagree with me I would imagine are smokers... And if they like being around smokers thats fine but to me a holiday for kids (big and small) should not be under clouds of Carcinogenic smoke.
For our family now we will save longer and go to florida and have a better holiday

I have to agree with everything you said, I wouldnt either go back even if we won it as a prize.
I said to the DW a few days ago, maybe we should go backagain, a few mins later I completely retracted what I said I would rather go once every 2 years to WDW than once a year to DLP. It really isnt the Disney experience they charge for. |
