Yep ... in Orlando.
Heard the Hong Kong sucks, which is a shame because it would be awesome to get a gadget fix as well.

No - I was just trying to be a cheap-skate ... kill 2 (or 3) birds with one stones, Disney for the kids, gadgets and gizmos for me.

You can get quite cheap stuff online, newegg etc.
I am old school man... I love browsing and touching and feel stuff before I buy.
I was like a kid in a toy shop at Pantip Plaza the last time I was in Bangkok and cannot wait to go to Nathan Road and Star House in HK.

It's the most amazing place in the world. I want to be buried there when I die.

DisneyWORLD is in Orlando - DisneyLAND is in California. I've been to both and disneyworld is far superior - it's an entirely autonomous town, absolutely massive. You could go to a different park every evening. But it's insanely expensive, everything costs - so go with money and don't hope to come back with any. Highlights are the safari theme hotel with zoo at the back and awesome African buffet, also Hollywood studios is very cool.

Forget Disneyland. It's a relic to a bygone era.
Disneyworld is fantastic if you go when there are no crowds.

Been to Florida. I wasn't that impressed with Disney though children might be. What did impress were the competing attractions in the same area like SeaWorld and Wet 'n Wild.

Been to Florida and LA, awesome but Universal and MGM were much better for adults.

I meant Disneyworld guys ....oops.
I checked a local agents site and he recommends going during September to April. I am still at he early stages of my planning.
Yeah, I expect to be broke when I get back ... but hopefully it will be worth it (for our children)

If it is in Orlando, you are talking about Disney World. Disney Land is in California.
I was there twice 2000/2001 (I think). Really awesome place ... the live shows of the different movies are great, and you have all the rest of the cool theme parks around it. Definitely worth it to go there IMHO

I've been to Disneyworld Florida. Was quite interesting. I don't have any kids, so I guess I didn't enjoy it as much as I should've. Don't spend much time in California...
