however I had no desire to. We ended up going just one day. It is a lot of money, but I guess I'm glad we did. Our hotel offered slightly discounted tickets. Our kids (5 and 7) really enjoyed it. I figure they won't remember much of it, so I took a lot of video and photos. We got there when the park opened, and the crowds were small then. It got crazy busy later in the day. The fast pass system is really a life saver. If you don't mind trekking back and forth across the park to use them then you can do some good rides while avoiding lines.

While an older kid may remember it more, they may also have a worse attitude. Our young kids were pretty enamored by everything. So while they were tired, they were quite happy all day.
