This site has a lot of great resources comming from first hand experiences. Disney can be very overwhelming and you will want to do everything while you are there,,,,,,,DON'T EVEN TRY...by cramming in the parks and the rides, you miss some of what the Disney magic is...
This will be our third trip back to Disney...but this time i've been doing a lot of online research....
another usefull site is all ears . net (this site won't let me www.)
we missed the boardwalk, missed fantasmic dining experience, missed illuminations,;etc...you get my point...
