Our preacher rants and raves on the Mouse from time to time.Sadly I got family members still going to Disney and encouraging others to go because it’s such a great and wonderful place. Then they go to church. It’s like watching people drinking from a cup and missing their mouth and still don’t know it.
Disney World employee charged with making over 500 ‘upskirt’ videos
A man has been charged with voyeurism after taking hundreds of ‘upskirt’ videos of unsuspecting guests at Walt Disney World in Florida, officials said on Saturday. The videos were taken over the span of several years. Police were called to the Star Wars store at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on...bnonews.com
Two thoughts. First, As I recall when the wife and I went 20ish years ago the 4 day pass can be used at any/all parks. Down to the day. I dont think that has changed. So for instance Disney on Monday. Tuesday Epcot. Wednesday skip Disney for other stuff. Thursday Epcot in the AM and Animal kingdom in the PM. Friday Disney in the AM and Epcot in the PM.My friends took their daughter to Disney in Orlando many years ago. Apparently, the "special" Disney hotel had so much stuff that she would have been happy just staying there and they wouldn't even have had to pay for the park.
That said, they did the park thing and paid an extra $50 (at the time) per head for the "Princess Dinner." This was a dinner where every round table had a separate Disney princess sit and entertain the kids. My buddy said that the girl who did their princess was absolutely fantastic in her role. His daughter loved that!
For those interested I was curious about the prices. An extremely basic tour of Disney's website shows that it isn't that expensive, depending upon what you do.
So, for the "I want to control everything myself" crowd it's a flat $109 / day / head, nothing else included. That gets you in the park.
For the "I just want to visit for a few days" folks it's $396 / head for a four (4) day pass. All days must be used very quickly, so basically within a week. I believe the pass is good for one (1) day at each park, but double check my work.
For the "I want the full Disney experience" gang it AVERAGES $4,500. That is a five (5) day pass that can be used one (1) time at each theme park along with five (5) days at a Disney lodge. I picked the Wilderness Lodge that has a lot there. They all do. From the looks of it you could go cheaper at about $4k up to around $8k for a two (2) room suite. There were cabins and others that were not available to the dates I chose to compare so the price may go even higher. The rate includes two (2) adults and I don't see a number limit for the kids.
Note that all fares seem to be flat rate down to age three (3) so most folks won't be able to wrangle out a kiddie rate as their isn't one. For a theme park designed to cater to kids this makes sense business wise.
So while it looks like expenses could wrack up you could also go for a day or so on the cheap getting in for a little over $100 per day.
For note we never went. My folks didn't have the time or money. Our day trip was to Cedar Point and King's Island.

Doug
The last time I was there a day pass was $33
I was kind wondering if Florida was a state yet.So, uhh... Did Walt buy you a drink while you were there???
It sucks what Disney has become. I looked forward going every year for Christmas.
