That's the bad. The good so far:

Hospitality is an amazing skill and it feels like every single Disney worker has it, in spades. They simply do a marvelous job. It's kind of amazing. And you know, I have a history of cynicism that I am trying to break, because it's not a good thing.

Disney is a corporate experience so the cynic wants to tear it down. But what I found was that this amazing hospitality puts everyone in a good mood. The crowd is usually cheerful and nobody is rude. This is how life should actually be.

I was forever cynical about the movie Pandora, but the Disney world ride for it actually redeems the movie. It's a simulated ride on one of the big flying beasts in the film. Many Disney things are 3D film combined with real effects. For Pandora you mount your seat like a horse, and it vibrates, rises up in the air, tilts every which way along with the flight of the beast. Wind is blown at you, there is mist and your senses tell you, you are actually flying. 60 minute wait for a 5 minute ride... Worth it!
