TAKE A FEW EXTRA STEPS!
Want even more exercise than you already get from trudging through the parks - try taking a few extra steps.
Want to go from the Boardwalk, Yacht and Beach, or Swan and Dolphin to MGM - take the walking path. Depending how fast you walk, it isn't really going to take you much longer than waiting for the water transportation. Of course, any of these walks can be a little difficult in very hot weather, on rainy days, or on the rare cold days.
You can also walk from the Contemporary to the Magic Kingdom.
Stroll between the Poly and the Grand Floridian - great way to lose some calories after a meal at one of the hotels' resaurants.
There are also many walking trails on the grounds - just check the maps at the hotels. It is fun, good exercise and burns calories when you overeat!
Don't forget you can also rent bikes - not a bad idea when you find some spare time (which is sometimes difficult).
BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVER EXERT YOURSEL! READ THE TIPS FROM A PERSONAL TRAINER WHO "WALKS" DISNEY WORLD.

YEAR OF A MILLION DREAMS
We got a wish last time by "hawking" the "million dreams" staff. It was only a lanyard - but it was something.
HINT: Most wishes you receive are small, but fun to get. However, if you do seek out the wish givers and follow them around, you may end up be right where you need to be when they are giving out the gifts. But, you likely will end up spending hours of valuable time to get a reward that isn't worth the time.
But, it was kind of fun.
