Since the original poster said we could only choose "one" thing not to miss, I would say: FANTASMIC!

Fantasmic is (in my opinion) the quintessential "Disney" experience at the parks these days. You totally get immersed in a truly magical moment that includes so many characters, music, and memories throughout the years.

It might be a small thing but Ice Station Cool is pretty sweet. Where else can you try soda's from around the world for free?

The sodas from around the world are alot of fun, especially if you get someone that has never tried them before, you can get them with the Italian version! :wink:

This is my son's favorite ride and I agree do both night and day rides! There is never much of a line and sometimes they let you stay on twice if no one is waiting! My boy would ride it all day long! His favorite part is paging Mr. Morrow. Mr. Tom Morrow. Your party from Saturn has arrived.

One thing I need you to do, even though everyone is telling you the 'must sees', there is one thing you must do:

Enjoy yourselves and don't get stressed. That's what everyone 'should' do.

ENJOY :D

Absolutely, as for the one thing that is a "must see"...It is all so great, I can't narrow it down. However, the one thing that very few people do (and I am just as guilty as everyone else) is to stop, look around and truely appreciate what WDW means. WDW is the benchmark for what one man (or mouse) can achieve. If Walt Disney can accomplish all of this, imagine what humanity as a group could accomplish. It is awesome to behold.
They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

My top "must see" was Tarzan Rocks!
Now I'd say "Festival of the Lion king"

Lion Sleeps Tonight wrote:Do not miss Illuminations!! If it's there, of course. It's a nighttime fireworks show at Epcot. The music is really good and inspiring. That's my one recommendation.
I absolutely agree with this. Don't miss Illuminations: Reflections of Earth.

Do not miss Soarin! And try to avoid the gift shops until the very end of your stay.
I don't follow my own advise and my credit card suffers. :roll:

Has anyone mentioned the electric water pageant yet? It's not the most exciting thing to see, but it always draws a crowd. One of my best memories of WDW...
