      How do you explain...

      To an Orlando virgin who is staying on International Drive for 7 nights in April that they probably won't have time to do all of WDW, Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, Wet and Wild and Seaworld? I've tried to explain the shear size of the parks plus the amount of time they'll spend waiting for transport as they've decided against hiring a car. I'm not making any progress! I mentioned that even after arriving at the TTC at the Magic Kingdom you need to allow approx 15 mins for catching either the monorail or the boat before you even arrive at the entrance to the park. I'm trying to save her money spent on entry tickets that they will be unable to utilise. I know she can maybe use them in the following year but I'm not wholly convinced she'll return to the area again. Any suggestions?

      Thought about that but as far as the internet is concerned she goes as far as eBay then stops.

      She might just be one of those people that won't listen and will need to see for herself.

      I guess. But it's funny isn't it. Because we love the place so much we want others to experience it as we do. Anything to avoid her having a negative experience.
