    Epcot, hands down! We're not really ride people, but I love walking around the World Showcase.

    I've only been to the one in California, so I didn't vote, but it was a serious blast! I think my favorite part was probably the future-istic world or the "Down South" district. If I did go, undoubtedly my favorite would be the Animal Kingdom!

    I love them all! It's a close tie between Magic Kingdom or MGM, but I voted for MGM because my favorite rides in all of WDW are there, Tower of Terror and Rockin' Rollercoaster.  But I <3 everything Disney!

    I guess epcot or MK, but I'd rather not go to Disney again for a long long time.  I went nuts last time I was there.

    @Toffee - I was thinking of adding the other parks, but maybe my next poll!  I am actually going out to Disneyland and California Adventure in March and am super excited!

    I love the Animal Kingdom! It is themed so well. Mr. Snow and I always wander around noticing small details when we go to AK.

    Also can I vote for a resort? Haha, I could lounge around Old Key West or Saratoga Springs for weeks on end, especially with Downtown Disney so close.

    @artbee - I love that you wrote "magic kingdom, it's a classic" because I was going to write a little tidbit after each choice on the poll but decided people could add their own comments. 

    Mine were gonna be:

    • Magic Kingdom - it's a classic!
    • Epcot - around the world & into the future...
    • DHS - The Hollywood that Never Was
    • DAK - It's Wild!

    Hah...I know, I am a nerd!

    I voted animal kingdom because it's the most different from any other Disney park I've been to. (I live in so-cal, so I spend a LOT of time at Disneyland and Cal Adventure, and I went to Disneyland Paris and the Disney Studio park in Paris before I'd ever been to WDW, so the other parks at WDW just seemed like more of the same). Also, I agree with Snow - the theming/atmosphere at Animal Kingdom is fabulous! And, the Dinosaur ride was the first time I've been legitimately scared/thrilled on a ride in YEARS.

    However, all this being said, if it was between all of the Disney parks, I would vote Disneyland (Anaheim) hands down. There's just something about the Magic of Disney that I feel so much more in the original than in any others... However, I would LOVE to have Crush's coaster in Paris' studio park - that ride is AMAZING.

    @blueshoes - if you ever make it down, come during epcot's food & wine festival, it's in the fall and in addition to the 11 world showcase countries, there are usually at least 15 more kiosks added for little sampler size foods and drinks from all over the world!!

    I'm going here for my honeymoon so I can tell you from an adult perspective after June. BUT, when I went in 5th grade my favorite was Epcot b/c they had all those interesting shops and food from around the world. Are you going there soon?

    Magic Kingdom! It never gets old. My FI and I went there last August. Even though it was really hot and humid, there wasn't a huge crowd in the park. We were able to go on all the rides! Yay!! Laughing

    My favorite park is the Magic Kingdom. Since my sister and futre FIL work there- we go pretty often.

    The last time I went was with my cousins and we had so much fun for the day! It's always fun to get to feel like a kid for the day!

    I love Rock N Roller Coaster and Tower of Terror and Toy Story, so I had to vote for DHS (it will always be MGM to me). Though I still thoroughly miss the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire show, it was my favorite show there. 

    I'm going down to Disney on Saturday, but just for dinner and stuff. I haven't been to the parks in a few months now.

    O I love this thread! :)

    I've been to Tokyo Disneyland too! :) It was the 1st Disney park I'd ever been to (when I was a teenager).

    Then went to the Hollywood park (when it WAS DW-MGM. :) ) and loved it (esp. b/c I love movies!

    Though FI and I are looking to got to WDW for our HM! I'm so excited! I hope it works out! I think we'll try to get the park hopper deal so we can experience a bit of them all while we are there, though I know we won't get to experience it all in the 4-5 day time frame, but hey...we will do what we can. :)

    So, I don't have a #1 fav. park. I'm interested in seein' them all! :)

    Magic Kingdom all the way! We go every year for Micky's Very Merry Christmas party with my husband's (all adult) family, and act like little kids. I think I've been once a year since I was born, if not more. My MIL is obsessed with all things Disney, and even has the credit card on which she puts just about every purchase so she can get the points. We just spent our 1st anniversary (New Years Eve) there and stayed at the Grand Floridian! 

    I don't think I could list the other parks in any particular order. I just like certain rides from each.
