Which can you miss?

[TinkKel]

Okay, I just want some of you seasoned Disneyphiles opinions....me and my two sons (14 & 10) will only have 5 days at the world.

Which Theme park do you think you could "live without" if you were the ages of my sons (they love rides)

Magic Kingdom
Epcot
MGM
Animal Kingdom
Disney Quest
Universal Studios
Island of Adventures

I need to choose two NOT to do....please only vote if you've experienced ALL of the above, that way I can get a true reading. Thanks for your help and experience!

Since your boys love rides, I suggest you skip Animal Kingdom which has "some rides" but only Dinosaur is a thrill ride, the other rides are animal based such as the Safari, or more in line with other amusement parks. You also spend more time walking and observing things than going on rides...

My other suggestion is Disney Quest which is somewhat a waste of money. My DS and DD went on our last trip and were majorly disappointed in the fact that once they got inside after paying a high admission, there were additonal charges to play some of the things they really wanted to do..it was also very crowded and they got to do little in the time they had alloted there..I say this is skippable and your day could be spent better in the parks.

Personally, I enjoy all four of the major Disney parks. Haven't been to I of Adv. Went to Universal years ago and didn't really get a lot out of it- lots of rides broken down and such. But put one vote against Disney Quest for me. I would never pay seperately for it. Was very dissapointed. The create a roller coaster there was awesome, but otherwise... I love arcardes and games and for me DQ was very disappointing.

Well I have to say don't pass up Disney Quest. Your boys would love it. It's the only reason my older son keeps coming back. You don't need a whole day here and it stays opened later then the parks. I would proably go after my AK day because that park closes early. IOA is a great park for your kids if they love rides. We had a wonderful day here and I think now they sell a front of the line pass so you don't have to wait on any of the lines. Universal Studios and MGM are the same type of park(Movie Studios) , MGM has better rides-TOT & RRC.
So my vote would be to skip Universal.
