help in deciding what theme park(s)

[sparkles_grrl]

Hey everyone I have another question yet again

I am trying to decide on which theme parks to visit. I know for sure Universal(I know this is a Disney board but I know some of you have been to Universal too!)

I am debating on Epcot or Islands of Adventure or BOTH!

Can someone please let me know there experiences at each park.

My friend just got back from Florida and went to Epcot and she said it was pretty boring.

thanks!

It depends on what rides you like. We are coaster enthusiasts, but still enjoy EPCOT and usually visit it each night.
If you really want a large amount of thrill rides, then IOA is better for you. EPCOT has a few, but IOA is full of them.

Research the websites carefully to see what appeals to you. We enjoy them both.

That's like asking whether you prefer apples or a red hot poker being shoved in your eye.

They are two very different parks. IOA is very, well, cramped and loud (not decible loud, just LOUD). Neither my wife nor I enjoyed it, although the Hulk and Spiderman rides are awesome.

But it all depends on what you prefer. Personally (and you're right, this is a Disney board, so we are biased), I didn't care for Universal at all. Good rides, but the overall park experience wasn't on par with Disney or Anheiser-Busch parks, more like Paramount or Six Flags parks. Second rate.
