I am spending my 35th birthday in WDW
Right now I am leaning towards spending it in Animal Kindgom.
Lately I have grown fond of that park. Love the theming, and Everest helps too.
Let me know what you think...
If pick other please post a reply of this other location.

You should be on Spider-man

Only kidding, it wouldn't feel right not to be in WDW.
I think EPCOT, you can drink around the countries, and then get on your favorite ride, Mission:SPACE, and puke. Sounds like a fun birthday!

anytime I've been down on my birthday, I've always ended up in Epcot. It's my favorite park from when I was little, as I used to love the seacabs/hydrolators at the living seas, as well as the whole World Showcase (I love learning about new cultures and stuff).
Just ask Brandon (Dr. Ravenscroft) how much I love Epcot - we were there for 7 days in early december, on 3 of those days, we ended up (or started) at Epcot, and lofgged a total of about 24 hours in the park.

Start at MGM in the morning and when you leave to go to a better park...consider that your birthday present!

Personally, I'd probably go for MK and/or Epcot.
Schnemo: Nothing wrong with MGM! That's where the cool kids work(ed)

I hit EPCOT as I think its the best theme park for the slightly older (i.e. not 6 year olds) disney fan. They have a lot of fine cuisine for a Birthday meal as well as the best evening parardes/fireworks. It also has a slightly more grown up, sedate feel to it than the other parks due to the World Showcase, but still has some high adrenaline rides like test track.
It kind of depends what you want though. If you want to feel like a kid again on your birthday (another year younger

) then obviously Magic Kingdom would be best. Now that i think about it, thats probably where I would go...

What's your favorite park? Personally, I'd spend it at MGM but that's my fave. You can't go wrong with Epcot, especially World Showcase.

MGM.. haha I think you are biased!
So far Epcot is winning. I do love mission space and the food at all the countries.

To be honest, regarless of which any of us think is the best park, just go with your favourite. It is your special day after all!
Failing that, travel to each of them having a different meal in each!
Breakfast: Magic Kingdom -few rides
Lunch: EPCOT -followed by Mission : Space
Tea: Animal Kingdom- dont forget EE
Supper: MGM -with fantasmic to finish off!

Go to EPCOT Rich. You should sign up for one of the tours while there. Of course you have to go over to guest services and get a birthday badge too. If you do the marathon drinking you may want to take the entire day there.

I'm jealous. I turn 50 this year, maybe I can convince DH that I deserve WDW as a birthday present!
I'd go with Epcot. AK is great, but it closes early and you can't make a full day of it like you can at Epcot.

Epcot is my favorite overall park so it got my vote, but I am a fan of doing the Grand Slam Hop - hit your favorite couple of attrctions at each park. We've grand slammed once and had a blast!
