I cant believe that Seaworld has only got 2 votes, I love Universal too but SEAWORLD has to be the best

Agree with a lot of the others IOA is our favourite, but thats because our girls are so much older, Disney was best when they were young
For us Seaworld was the best. It was the first park we visited when we arrived and we were so excited, I think nothing really matched it after that. Can't wait to go back in July[8D][8D][8D][8D]

I agree about Sea World. My personal favourite is Epcot, but when we did a family poll, Sea World won easily.

I think a lot of it depends on the sort of day you have when you go!
If something special happens, it makes you feel differently about the park!!
Maybe its just us!

That's true for a fist time visitor, but when you visit several parks several times, you get more discerning and notice other things like the cleanliness, facilities, staff attitudes etc. :)

Epcot is the best park that we have visited so far, but I suspect that IOA will get the vote when we next visit. Without meaning to sound picky, I really didn't enjoy Seaworld on our visit there. Firstly, we had no tickets so had to queue for 50 minutes to get one, which cost an arm and a leg for five. Then when we eventually got in, they started charging for even more things, like the sky lift(?), food for the fish etc. Perhaps I was just in a bad humour after the long queue to get in, but I felt that it was extortion to expect visitors to pay more after paying the entrance fee[msnsad]

I can't speak for all my family but I just plain love them all.
Just knowing I am in such a glorious place puts me in the mood for almost anything.
Although Charlie may have swayed me towards staying in the villa, it still would not put me off Florida.[msneek]

The extra charges can seem a little extreme!! But you don't have to do these things. The Sky Ride is free for some Year Pass Holders, so I hear!
And can add to the cost and take away from the enjoyment especially when you have toddlers that have to have EVERYTHING including the 5 or 6 fish you get for your $3 or what ever they are charging this year. It can be costly!!
BUT saying that we still love SEAWORLD!
The Shamu shows brings a lump to my throat EVERYTIME I see it.
And the fact you get to touch/stroke the dolphins is just wonderful!
Seaworld use the money they raise to help pay for the rescue of wildlife!! and other things of course.
I know what you are saying,and agree somewhat!

Not sure I could pick one now;)It used to be MGM studios for me:)But I do enjoy Islands of Adventure, perhaps because it still feels very new there, some of the shows and rides are spectacular too[^]:)
Come on, love em all really:):D[8D]
Good to see animal Kingdom getting only 2 votes!

Voted Epcot as it is the only park that has kept us all day. We like Busch and MGM, IOA. Hate Animal Kingdom.

Having a poll of best theme parks and not having "Islands Of Adventure" included is a waste of time in my opinion and makes no sense atall.
IOA wins it by miles.

Not enough Options John!!
I would have thought that you would have been a Disney Theme Park fan looking at your Avatar
IOA is voted for under the OTHER choice!!
Your choice is then made clear to us all!!

Magical Dreams,i did not realize that you could only have 8 options when conducting a poll,so please except my apology for my comments regarding the omitting of Island Of Adventure from the theme park poll[:I]
If i had known the facts i would have realized that as I.O.A was the only one left out,a vote for "OTHER" would have indeed been a vote for I.O.A[clap]
I live and learn.
