Ten Worst

1. Leaving. No worse feeling in the world.
2. All the things that Disney can't control: the weather, the crowds, the hassle of air travel
3. Closing the Adventure's Club. Why????
4. Rude and inconsiderate guests
5. Brazil tour groups full of rich bratty teens with little adult supervision
6. The fact that they picked Avatarland to make over almost anything else. Not only that… but how long it takes for something to open now in Disney compared to "other" parks.
7. Changing extra magic hours after people have already made plans. Really inconsiderate.
8. The fact that you can only get three fast passes now at one park.
9. If this is true (since I haven't stayed at one since 2006)… the fact that you can't get moderate resort pins anymore. I really want a Coronado pin!
10. The fact that if you want a really great restaurant (or resort), you're gonna be paying a TON. But don't worry, it’s gonna be worth it!

Ten Best (too many to mention!)

1. Arriving! No better feeling in the world.
2. The feeling of being absolutely immersed in this magical place.
3. The attention to detail in everything!
4. The amazing variety and quality of (most) of the food there.
5. The amazing resorts! They're a vacation all by themselves!
6. All the water. I love the lakes, the beaches, the waterfalls, the fountains. Beautiful.
7. The transportation. The boats, the busses, the monorail. I love it all! It helps in the whole immersion effect, IMO.
8. The sounds and the smells
9. The cast members!
10. Oh, and the parks and attractions ain't too bad, either!

Worst.. #1 is really the only one that truly bothers me, the rest are pretty minor.

1. General sense of entitlement and lack of consideration of a lot of people visiting the parks with my top pet peeves going to parents who ignore and/or refuse to try and correct poor behaviour in their children and to people who seem to have zero sense of their surroundings and total lack of common sense. If you are walking and stop suddenly, you will very likely get run into. Double dufus points if you then complain about being run into.
2. The day in the vacation where you realize you have less days left than days that have passed.
3. I miss some of the old, now removed rides like Mr. Toad, 20,000 leagues
4. I dislike that there are no deluxe resorts themed like the value (i.e. over the top Disney in your face theming).
5. Not being able to book 4th and beyond FP on your phone
6. No longer having characters roam the parks and having impromptu meetings. I understand why this can't be happening anymore (crowd levels), but the whole line up M&G thing is just not magical for me at all.
7. The deterioration of Backlot Tour. It used to be awesome.
8. Too much good food, not enough time to eat it all!
9.

The best...
1. Mickey Mouse - I have adored him my whole life!
2. The ferry ride to MK
3. Tower of Terror, my very favourite Disney attraction
4. Sci-Fi, love the theming of that place and love the quiet & cool respite it provides on a hot summer day.
5. Pirates, classic Disney!
6. Jungle Cruise, ditto to #5
7. New Fanasyland, it's just so visually appealing and a great addition to the park
8. Diversity and number of choices for dining.
9. MB/FP+ I know not a popular opinion around here, but I really like the innovation and I like being able to have FP in hand before I even leave my room.
10. Partners Statue, makes me emotional every time I see it.
