It would be an easy answer if not for Toy Story Mania... but even so, I'd have to vote down DHS. DD7 is too young for ToT and RnRC, and we've seen the shows a million times... maybe my answer will change when StarTours 2.0 comes out...
Thanks,
Doc

I guess it could also be called which park is your least favorite but I don't really think of it that way. I've been going to Disney quite a bit recently. However, I've only had enough time to actually go to the parks for 3 days. I usually stay offsite and come in with an AP but I prefer not to parkhop as it just cuts down actual time in the park. So with that background established, which 3 parks do you normally try to visit, which is the odd park out and why?

I usually stay with the MK/EPCOT/DHS combo. I just have not got used to including AK in my normal rotation and sometimes, if it came down to going a second time to DHS or EPCOT vs. going to AK, I'll go the second time to DHS or EPCOT.

Anyone else have these thoughts or situations come up?
I feel exactly the same way.

Don't get me wrong... in being a local, I have more time to just putz around, but when doing the whole day for my own enjoyment, I eliminate AK. Still needs more. Still a half-day park IMO.

Yeh, but what people go to the AK park are either in line for the safari ride or EE because that's about all there is to do at AK.

I love AK. On a three day trip I always skip DHS. I love to take pictures and AK is my second favorite park for taking pictures. (MK first of course). AK's themeing is wonderful...well except for Dinoland USA.

Magic Kingdom
Epcot
Hollywood Studios



Animal Kingdom remains the weakest of the four parks.

I would have to choose, MK, Epcot and AK. I know the AK has the least amount of attractions, but the atmosphere draws me in, I love the detail.
