The crowds were nothing compared to DLR, BTW. We were at Hollywood studios on Thursday and that was the worst day by far, and the only day it felt crowded.

Oh - another thing....if I'm going to build an arena specifically for the playing of Fantasmic, I'm going to make it a hell of a lot better than it is. It's a very different show than at DL, and is really pretty lame in comparison. No Pirate ship, and the mini Mark Twain they attempted to make for the end of the show is ridiculous looking. They really should be ashamed.

If you see Illuminations, make sure you are not down wind. Wind does not stop the fireworks at WDW, and my whole family got ash from fireworks in our eyes which was really quite painful.

The cast members at WDW are not anywhere near as friendly as at DLR. I have never complained to Disney about any aspect of a trip, but one cast member was so rude I did go to guest relations to complain. All turned out well and the guy at guest relations was very, very nice (gave us Fantasmic premium seating, a few generic fast passes, and provided a couple of other very nice things).

Food is much, much cheaper at WDW (a coke from a street vendor is a full dollar less) and most places had alternative choices from chicken strips or burgers - cuban sandwiches, grilled panini, etc.
