| 34206 | All the reasons THIS is better than THAT | We got lucky the first time I went to Disney, it was in the first week of February so it wasn't tourist season. I can't remember it being that crowded.<div><br></div><div>The second time was far worse: we were originally supposed to go in October but decided to instead go in August. Not only did we have to deal with huge amounts of crowds (apparently in August, all the foreign tourists from countries like Great Britain and Australia descend on the park at the same time), we had to deal with the scorching heat.</div> | Rick Ace Rhodes | Mar 06, 2017 | |
| 34205 | All the reasons THIS is better than THAT | <i>Just more reason to have swat members roaming the park in Goofy suits.<br><br></i>Dude, yes, please! That would make up for EVERYTHING (as long as we are aware of what's going on) ;D<br> | Silvervix | Mar 06, 2017 | |

| 34202 | The Café | Lately I've been busy working on becoming a homeowner. Been renting for far too long. Me and my wife are working on negotiating this one place we found and we're hoping this process finishes up soon so we can move in. | Linux_Sage | Mar 06, 2017 | |
| 34201 | All the reasons THIS is better than THAT | <div>disneyland would've ended up on my bucket list for sure but i'm glad i read all of your post. who would've thought one theme park would be such a lengthy test of patience?</div> | Benjanime | Mar 06, 2017 | |

| 34199 | All the reasons THIS is better than THAT | Disney Land has always been a two time ordeal for me: you guy once when your a child so you can experience the magic, then you go once again with your children so they can experience the magic.<div><br></div><div>I have family that goes multiple times a year and I just don't get how they are still thrilled time after time again. I went twice over the span of two and a half years, by the second time I was like "been there, done that". Kudos to anyone who can do it time and time again.</div> | Rick Ace Rhodes | Mar 06, 2017 | |
| 34198 | All the reasons THIS is better than THAT | Going to Disney was never in the cards for me, but now that I have read this I'm not sure if I would go there (even if I could).<br> | Silvervix | Mar 06, 2017 | |
