ODDS AND ENDS AT WDW

Have a few spare moments between attractions - why not take some time out and try something just a little bit different.

Tired - Stop and grab an ice cream and people watch. This may not be so much fun for teens and pre-teens, but great if you are starting to wear out. Taking breaks stops you from getting overtired and then the fun trip and start to become "more like a workout at the gym."

Have energy - Try biking around the resorts, run on the paths, go to the gym and lift some weights, jump into the pool for a swim, or just walk around the parks rather than going into any attractions. A walk around EPCOT or Animal Kingdom can burn up a lot of calories and be entertaining watching the scenery.

Cirque de Soleil - Its different, fun, and well worth the price.

Go out on a pedal boat, or any of the watercraft on the properties.

Want excitement - Try water skiing, parasailing, or going on a real race track adventure.

Get into the swing of things - Play golf.

Ready to Dance - Try the many lounges including those at Pleasure Island.

Want to be an American Idol - Check out how to audition the summer in the new experience that is coming to Disney.

Want to see behind the scences - There are a number of offerings in varying price ranges in all the parks.

Or maybe a little nap by the pool, or your hotel might just be the break you are searching for.

There is a great deal to do at WDW beyond the traditional attractions. Look into other options before you go and once you get there. Staff are really helpful in letting you know of new and unusual things to try each time you visit. And staff can really give you a lot of insight into making your trip even more enjoyable than your last visit to the kingdom.
