Oh wow, so much to see. In Washington DC, all the historical sites and the Smithsonian museums will take you days. It depends on what you like. I like the Museum of Modern History, The air and space museum and the FBI. In New York, you have to go to a broadway show. Visit Ground Zero and pay respects to the people that died there, go to the empire state building, visit an authentic NY Deli, go to the Statue of Liberty and so much more. Again, it depends on what you like. I don t know which part of NJ you re going to. If it s the southern part, visit Philadelphia and see the Liberty Bell and the place where the original congress took place. If it s the North part, just go to NYC. There s nothing worth seeing in No. NJ.Have fun!Have a fabulous time!

Frequent Disney-ers - Wouldnt you like to know who always gives you thumbs down in Orlando section? -
well i don t think it happens EVERY time but yes for the majority of the questions i answer about disney i do seem to get at least one thumbs down and i notice that about oh i d say like 15 of us frequent answerers.i think its people just being jealous.and often i think its cuz i put down how many times i have gone but i m not doing that to brag or anything i just want the person that asked the question to know that i am speaking from knowledge and experience.
It s been nearly a year since I have been on here to answer questions, and I used to get it all the time. Being a cast member at WDW was my very first job that I got when I was 16 and stayed there until I went off to college. Even went back to work there for a while when moved back. I didn t and don t know everything about Disney but I do know A LOT and was just trying to share my input and I got a thumbs down. As long as I was able to help at least one other person by giving my insight that s all that matters. So to answer your question yes I have noticed and it does spark a curiosity as to who keeps shooting all of us down.
I ve noticed it, too and therefore decided not to give my input here as much anymore. In fact I don t visit this site as frequently as I once did. A lot of you do give incredible answers, though, so don t allow the thumbs down to disuade you from offering your amazing responses. If no one else appreciates your answers, I certainly do. I personally have learned a lot from all of you despite my own years of experience at WDW.
i hate disney and i have lived in central florida for more than 20 years and a ex disney cast member i think that universal is 10x better than disney. disney sucks they water things down and they few much munchkinized everything.i mean come on mickey not so scarry halloween yea that runs me stright to halloween horror night. the only thing that disney does that good is you can bring in outside food but then again you have the meal deal at usf
Wow! Now that you mention it... It has happened that as soon as I hit the submit button, I already have a thumbs down.It s probably someone who doesn t like Disney. That s my guess. There s nothing wrong with putting how many times you ve been to Disney. I d do it too if I was good at math and could count that high. (: Just kidding... I only wish that I ve been to Disney 46 times! Wow! It gives me an excuse to go again. I need to catch up to everyone.
I actually ran across a Disney hater. She just could not stop ranting about how horrible Disney is and how expensive. She compared Disney to the pits of H#LL. I know she is on this site so often so she may be one of the thumbs down people.I had no idea that someone like that really existed. So much hate.
Yes, you re right. I ve noticed it on you re great answers, I always give you a thumbs up. I ve noticed it on mine, others too. I don t understand why people have to be so mean. I noticed once that I hit the submit button, as soon as it went through, it had a thumbs down on it already. There was hardly enough time for anyone to read it!
It may either be users that are just simply anti-Disney, or the extreme opposite, Disney fans who are highly passionate about Disney and notice inaccurate information or misspellings. There so much information about Disney that at times it can be overwhelming, everyone has different tastes and opinions on what they believe is good advice and not good advice.
Yes it happens to me as well, but honestly I do not really care. I noticed some stupid answers and the moment those answers appear, everyone got thumbs down, so OK lets someone have its fun, if it helps them sleep at night. Many of us KNOW what they talk about when it comes to Disney, but some just trolling around, so what can we do. Again, it does not bother me much.
Yep and it drives me nuts especially if I m the first to say something and get thumbs down then someone says the exact same thing and gets thumbs up
Do you realy get at least one (1) thumbs down?Well, Here it comes again!
