From what I recall, you wait about an hour in each line anyway! Is the Witches Wheel still there? It was actually my favorite ride ever.
As for coasters, I like the smooth ones. The Blue Streak is so jerky and I think the last time I was on the Cork Screw, I kept hitting my ears against the safety bar and I was sore afterward.

We were just talking about planning our trip for late Spring/early Summer this evening. 
I haven't been there since senior class trip '95.

if you are going during the summer, please get express passes...necause u know it's going to get crowded.
which parks are you thinking about doing?
also...what about your lodgings?
We did a timeshare which really was in the middle of everything and it was great!!!

Hot and crowded are a terrible combo. He's the Disney and Universal Studios expert because he's been there a few times and has a family member who works there. So he'll be doing the planning from A-Z.
I love timeshares so that's the way to go.

I've never been to Disney! (Or Orlando for that matter...) I want to go but I don't want to wait until my daughter is old enough to come along. Anybody feel like babysitting?

How old is your daughter?
I will say it like this...if you like riding the rides...at least go once by yourselves...it's not fun if you have small teeny tiny kids...
The 1 year old kid that wailed in his stroller for about 30 mins while I waited to get on the Jurrasic Park ride was a testament to that...

She's sixteen months. She went with us to Six Flags in San Francisco (well...near SF) when she was seven months and she was alright riding around in the stroller all day, but there were three of us there anyway so we were already kind of playing odd-man-out to watch the baby. Now that she's a bit older, though, I doubt she would want to be pushed around all day without getting down to run and play. I wouldn't take her at this age.

Nice pics!! Looks like a fun trip.
We've gone to Disney a few times in the summer. I guess my fam. is use to the heat since they live outside of Orlando now. If you know what to expect and stay cool you'll be ok. If you plan things out and hit the inside rides during the hottest part of the day that helps too.
minDyG - I think my mom use to wait till we were 3yrs old before she felt we were old enough to appreciate a trip to Disney.

you know that commercial where the parents drop their son off at college and then go to disney? My parents actually did that. Granted they waited until October lol. They have friends down in Orlando so they went to visit them and then did Disney and Universal and maybe one other? They had a blast, especially because it wasn't nearly as crowded as when they took me over Spring Break when I was little.
Also, must say Cedar Point is wonderful for roller coasters. The new one, Maverick, is AMAZING!
