I am boycotting Disney World. Just told my daughter we are not going there for vacation this year

23. Disney World is overpriced crap, irrespective of whether or not they have a robot Trump.

Disney movies are fine and enjoyable but the theme parks are a waste of time and money.

It's overly crowded and overly priced for what amounts to mediocre rides. It was built as an underhanded land grab and contributed to a lot of sprawl and ugliness on what had been pristine Central Florida wilderness.

I avoided it for the first 30 or so years of my life. I subsequently have been twice, not my choosing, and I can't say that I really was in any way impressed.

I would still highly suggest a Florida vacation, though. You could try St. Augustine, Kennedy Space Center, the Everglades, the Keys, or the absolutely beautiful natural springs that dot the state.

If you really want an amusement park, I might suggest the Tampa Bay City Pass. It will get you into Busch Gardens, which is a pretty good amusement park. It's smaller than Disney but with better rides and shorter lines. You will also get admission into the Florida Aquarium, Clearwater Aquarium, Tampa Zoo and the Science Museum. The price is $90 a person for all of those attractions combined--it's a terrific value. Essentially you get 5 attractions for less than the price of a single day at Disney.
