Walt Disney World Info

[eponymous]

Hello!
Here's a link I find useful for planning trips to Walt Disney World in Orlando.

This gentleman has provided a list of links to other Palm-friendly Disney pages in one convenient place. Links include park hours, menus, and hidden Mickey info.

I use a link depth of 3 under Plucker to get all the menus. i recommend turning off graphics.

Other theme park related links to watch are...

I used to use these all the time but currently there's no real info, just a promise that new versions will be available soon.

If anyone knows of any other good Palm friendly theme park links please post them!

I'm adding this to my existing Disney info thread as there's nothing here suited to adding to the WCC unfortunately, however this may be of interest to some users.


pocketDisney (http://www.pocketdisney.com) has a feature called MouseMaps which are maps and general info of the parks at Walt Disney World for use on a PDA. Unfortunately these are only available as downloads. There are two styles of downloads -- Pocket PC and iSilo. As I do not have iSilo I cannot comment on what those downloads contain or look like. I downloaded the Pocket PC versions because the instructions indicated they were straight HTML. As it turns out, they are... but they're downloaded as a Windows executable which then decompresses the files into a directory. Once decompressed you can easily pluck them. I plucked them at a depth of 3 and all seems well.

These seem like they would be most useful only if you grab them just prior to a trip to WDW, since attractions and restaurants have been known to change. There's also a schedule of park hours and events available which only runs a few months out.

I downloaded an application for my iphone -- Walt Disney World iphone Park Guide to use on our visit. It was very useful - tons of info and photos on Disney World, Epcot, Disney's Animal Kingdom, Disney's Hollywood Studios, etc.

has a feature called MouseMaps Orlando Tours which are maps and general info of the parks at Disney World Hotels for use on a PDA. Unfortunately these are only available as downloads. There are two styles of downloads -- Pocket PC and iSilo.

The iphone also has an application for maps on all the Disney parks. I remember the old days when you could get "lost" in Disney World -
