Disneyland vs. Disneyworld (Ryan Blog Excerpt)

**NOTE--The funny thing about this blog was that Ryan had never even BEEN to Disneyworld to even compare the two. Where did we end up going to for our honeymoon? That's right...DisneyWORLD! And where is Ryan's all-time favorite vacation location now? That's right...Disneyworld...hands down. :)** PAM

Of all the important issues we face in life, this is probably one of the most insignificant. Disneyland vs. Disneyworld. Which is the better the themepark? What are the attributes that give a park the "land" classification and how are they different from a "world" ranked park. Please join us on a deep sea adventure that is both strange and pointless, as we pit Disneyland against Disneyworld. Before we begin, allow me to say that Disneyland is way better than Disneyworld, this is not an unbiased study.

1. Location: Disneyland is in California, and Disneyworld is in Florida. Who in thier right mind wants to go to Florida?! California is the obvious choice here folks. When the Eagles needed to write a legenday song, which stately hotel did they stay at--California! When the Beach Boys dreamed about girls, they were California girls because East coast girls were only hip! Seriously, what does Florida bring to the table? Oranges and hurricanes? We hear about California all the time: Movie stars in court, police brutality, peoples houses falling into the ocean, Steve Jobs. California has it all. This place is so hot that every summer half the state is on fire. West coast-1 East coast-0

2. Park Attractions: Nothing is more memorable than "It's a small world". Anyone who has riden this ride knows what I am talking about. It leaves such an impression that when you hear small children singing you experiance symptoms of post traumatic stress syndrome. The only thing that Disneyworld has that can even compete with that is Epcot. Every year golf enthusiasts gather to summon the Spirit of Tiger Woods to come and send that giant golf ball fying into the Bermuda Triangle. That is the only reason people go there.

3. Florida is chock full of old men wandering aroud without a shirt. Need I say more?

4. So what if Disneyworld is a "world"! that doesn't amount to hill of beans in this world--the real world. When Pirates are out sailing around and they find a coast to plunder, what is thier clarion call? That's right, it's "land ho!" because no one cares if there is a "world ho". Infact, the only reason it's called Disneyworld, is because Disneyland was already taken. Disneyworld has little brother envy.

5. Lastly, Disneyland has always been hailed as the "Happiest place on Earth" and "the place where dreams come true". What is Disneyworld? "Something for Everyone" give me a break!

Honestly, Disneyland is the better choice for family vacations, marriage proposals, and losing gobs of money on the cost of concessions and souveniers. Next time you wish you were somewhere else becasue you got busted for peaking in your friends medicine cabinet--wish you were in Disneyland.
