Ah, the age old "best place to watch RDCT" discussion.

Most would argue that plopping your butt down right in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle and staking out a spot for a few hours is the best viewing opportunity. Unless you have an extremely patient child or can get someone to stake a land claim for you, that may not be your best choice.

The second best viewing (IMHO) is back on Main Street about 15-20 feet back from the loop split (where the tracks for the Horse-Drawn Trolley split). Anywhere from there back towards Main Street Photo Supply - the earlier you arrive, the closer to the castle you can get. I like this area because it allows one to arrive a little later (maybe 1/2 hour to one hour before the show start) and still secure a decent spot. Also, if yo uare leaving right after the show, you've got a good head start on the main crush of bodies.

Now, some will argue that you cannot see the Castle projections from back there. While this is true, I feel that you what you gain by a better overall viewing angle (again, my opinion) supercedes the loss of Castle projections (which are good, but not a make or break for me).

Some people like along the loop of the hub - on the street near the entrance to Tomorrowland. This, if positioned correctly, allows for a view of the Castle projections. However, I feel that the pushing and shoving level there is not worth the effort.

Those are my preferences - I know others will have a different opinion.
