Howdy! We just returned from a 5 night stay at the Disneyland Resort. Because WDW is our 'home' park, I wanted to let everyone know there really are some things WDW does better than DL.
Here's a quick list of the WDW-centric things we missed:
- ability to combine tickets and room key
- information packet received upon check-in
- hotel food court
- express check-out
- sense of escapism, true themed environment at hotel
- reasonably close parking lot
- security, id check point when entering resort (lot was packed)
- constantly running parades, fireworks, and shows
- reasonably priced (no kidding) snacks
- grandeur of the park icons (Cinderella's Castle, Spaceship Earth)
- America-centric shows (American Adventure, Hall of Pres)
Of course, there are numerous things better at DL (no fingerprint readers!). I just feel like that because of some inadequacies, the really good things about WDW are often overlooked.
