A WDW fanatic finally heading to DL/DCA - any tips?

FYI - breakfast at the Plaza this past Sunday was $18.95 per adult, so they've probably had a slight price increase.

Hmm..I wonder if other places raised their prices too.
Maybe someone could post if they know about anywhere else.

Wow!!! What wonderful tips Tina!!! I'm putting them all in a word document so that when we take our first trip next Dec we'll have them handy. I may end up emailing you as it gets closer to our departure date.

Bumping - I think someone was asking for this thread.

I would try to ride the Casey Jr Circus Train and Mr Toad's Wild Ride and anything else that's not in WDW. This is the park that Walt built and so many things are different. Wait until you see It's a Small World . . . you'll be thrilled because it's so much cooler that the ride in Florida!

That's very true...
Here is a list of things that you won't find in WDW's Magic Kingdom itself in Florida: (I had no shame in lifting them from Deb's site...hehe. )

Alice in Wonderland (Fantasyland)
Casey Jr. Circus Train (Fantasyland)
Fantasmic (Similar but not identical to show at the MGM-Studios)
Gadget's Go Coaster (Toontown - Similar to Goofy's Barnstormer)
Goofy's Bounce House (Toontown)

Honey I Shrunk the Audience (located in WDW's Epcot Future World)
Indiana Jones (Adventureland)
Innoventions (located in Epcot's Future World)

Another price increase: just got back last night from our wonderful California vacation and we stayed at the Grand Californian, and the buffet breakfast at Storytellers (with chip and dale and pluto) was $18.95 for adults (had no kids with us so I didn't notice the kids prices, sorry).
