Happy New Year from Jamaica...and a question about Orlando :)

[Kanza]

Greetings and Happy New Year!! You guys have been much missed...even while soaking up the sun and surf I have been a "V4L" maniac, telling everyone about the wonders of vaping and now I am out of contact cards That only took a week and a day and POOF! Like magic, every card was gone I hope we have more family members soon

However, tomorrow we leave for Orlando and the MOUSE!! <cheer> DH and I have some suggestions from Floridians who were here for the holidays...like do NOT skip the fireworks display at Disneyworld!! Now, I have a question for you guys Who else would I trust with important vacation plans but you guys??

If two adults are touring Universal and Disney...when is the best time to start the day, considering we DO want to see the fireworks? Should we start at breakfast and HOPE we last that long, try to exit and re-enter the parks (is that even possible?) go later in the afternoon? Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!

Plus, is there any DO NOT MISS activities we should factor into our day?? Tuesday and Wednesday are Universal days, Friday and Saturday are for the Mouse Thursday is strictly for recovery Who knew it could be so exhausting doing nothing?? You have to be in real shape to lounge around a pool

For those who have asked, DH is doing well...and danced the New Year in to a reggae beat He deserves time in the sun after his health issues...all the surgeries and scares of the last 5 years

Our combined hope is that 2012 is a banner year for you and your families HUGE {{{{{HUGS}}}} to you and yours

Love and kisses and best wishes...Kanza

Hi kanza! Been fhinking about you.

I'm sick and the remedy within reach is a cuppa Harney tea with lots of honey and a little milk

Have fun at the Mouse! I've never been so I have no advice...

Xoxo Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Ms.Kanza, Although I live about an hour from the mouse in 30 yrs I've never been, but a cold front is coming through to night and the weather this week is suppose to be cold around 50s or 60 during the day and 30s or 40s at night and windy. That's you week long forecast brought to you by the Been There weather Chanel .

I have taken my children to the Disney parks when they were a bit younger. I suggest getting up and being there close to the opening. Leave the parks for a nice (and significantly cheaper) lunch. After lunch rest a bit, shop at Downtown Disney etc. Then go back in the early afternoon/evenings. Trust me - a full day in the park is a bit much.

 

[keyzygirl]

I agree,We would go early then take the kids back to the hotel for lunch,a swim and a little nap then went back to the park till closing.I always wondered about people dragging crying exausted kids around.It just didnt look like fun,LOL!

You must take a day or two to experience the wilderness wetlands. Disney bought of large amount of land for tours I believe. I used to fish there until they kicked me out and told me Disney owned it. GRRR! And if you are a golfer, some of the Disney courses are a must! Maybe it's because I grew up in Florida but I find the attractions to be a waste of time and money. Except maybe Epcot. Interesting and fun. I personally wouldnt waste all my time at the attractions. Enjoy "Florida". Disney is just Disney.

But I understand, you got the kiddies with you lol.

Have fun be safe.
