Disney raises ticket price

However, what I wanted to comment about was someone referencing the condition of WDW when they were there. This is hard to believe, that WDW was in poor condition.

One of the reasons we love going to WDW over other parks is the effort they put into keeping everything in tip-top shape, from the plants to the streets. I have not witnessed peeling paint or broken fixtures... anything. Just look at the drive in along the roads to get to the parking lots... everything manicured. Sure, they might have some building/construction going on (like the current FantasyLand area), but those are to be expected from a park that is always trying to improve and give more to their customers.

I agree. We were there this weekend and still looks good. Sometimes it gets dirty, or maintenance seems to fall behind, but there are also a lot more people coming through than in past years and it gets more difficult to keep. Plus as others have said, they are a business and need to watch what they spend. They do recognize the need to keep things nice and provide a quality experience; but at times they will fall short because it is so difficult.
