FunAdvice Advice from: drnigelc http://www.funadvice.com/my/advice/drnigelc en-us Re: Disneyland or disney world? Disneyland is the original Disney theme park. It was built back in 1955 (Disney World opened in 1971). Disneyland is much, much smaller than Disney World. Here are the basic facts: Disneyland Resort Anaheim, CA 2 theme parks (Magic Kingdom, California Adventure) 3 hotels (Disneyland Hotel, Paradise Pier, Grand Californian) Downtown Disney shopping area All of the hotels and theme parks are within 5 minute walk. Walt Disney World Orlando, FL 4 theme parks (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom) 2 water parks (Blizzard Beach, Typhoon Lagoon) 20+ hotels Downtown Disney (3 times larger than Disneyland's version) WDW is spread out over an area the size of Manhattan, and you must use the monorail, buses or cars to get from one place to the next. So -- one is not necessarily better than the other. Disneyland was the only theme park that Walt Disney ever stepped foot in (WDW opened after he died). WDW is bigger, and has more attractions, etc. Compare both: http://www.disneyland.com/ http://www.disneyworld.com/ drnigelc Sat, 03 May 2008 15:24:37 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/disneyland_or_disney_world 334520 Re: Speeding ticket question The police car does not have to have his lights on -- that completely defeats the purpose of catching you!! If you saw him, you'd slow down -- then you wouldn't learn your lesson. Quit trying to get out of it...you were speeding, you got caught. Pay the fine, and slow down next time. drnigelc Fri, 04 Apr 2008 06:48:13 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/speeding_ticket_question 296432 Re: What's a good website to post a hotel complaint? The biggest and best site is http://www.tripadvisor.com/ Some others... http://www.yelp.com/ http://www.boo.com/ http://www.resideo.com/ And, of course, contact the hotel (the actual hotel & the chain headquarters). drnigelc Wed, 02 Apr 2008 09:19:31 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/hotel_complaints 293354 Re: Should I go to college? You should learn to spell college before you drop out and go there. drnigelc Sat, 05 Jan 2008 10:16:50 -0800 http://www.funadvice.com/q/should_i_go_to_collage 177337 Re: What is a cheap motel in New York City? Head to http://www.resideo.com/us/newyork/newyork/ and click the "Check Availability" button. Choose your dates, submit the form, then sort the results by price -- that'll put the cheapest places first. I really doubt you'll find anything in Manhattan that cheap, you might end up near one of the airports. If all else fails, check sidestep.com and kayak.com drnigelc Wed, 26 Sep 2007 09:13:09 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/real_cheap_motels_new_york_city 103663 Re: Isn't there a Panama in Florida and somewhere else? All of the above posters are correct. As for your specific question, there's: Panama, Panama (meaning a city named Panama in a country named Panama) Panama City, Florida Panama City Beach, Florida (two seperate cities, right next to each other) For a complete list of cities named "Panama": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panama_%28disambiguation%29 drnigelc Wed, 08 Aug 2007 09:21:46 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/panama_16341 80894
