Who hasn't ever been to WDW? I haven't. If you have been to WDW what would you tell those who haven't? :bored:

For me, some must-do things are:
*meet all the characters! :teeth:
*TSM
*EE
*trying different restaurants
*so many other things too

For me, Character hunting was always fun. Make sure you take time to enjoy all the scenery and the attention to detail used as well!

before you go, get plenty of practice just going on long walks. believe me you'll need it.
but once you're there it's sssssooooo mmmmmmmmuuuuuuucccccccccchhhhhhhhh FFFFFFFUUUUUUUNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!! i love everything about disney. yes even waiting one hour on the line for test track to finally be at the front to find out that the ride is being shut down due to weather conditions. there is never a dull moment.

i also enjoy that too. for me there are moments when i get tired of going rides. so i just walk around whatever park i'm in, just for the hell of it. the scenery is like an attraction in itself. they are so beautifully done. it's also fun to look for the hidden mickeys.

I'd say to make sure you wear comfortable walking shoes! I've gone to local amusement parks in flip-flops, but Disney I absolutely HAVE to do in my gym shoes because I walk so much.
Park-hop! It's a ton of fun, especially going from Epcot to the MK or the other way around.
There's A LOT of detail that the Imagineers put into everything, so if you have to wait in line for something, take a look around at everything. It's pretty remarkable! Pay attention to the way things smell, sound, look, even feel. It's pretty awesome!
It really is the happiest place on Earth. I love it so much I could spend the rest of my life there. When you go, let yourself get caught up in the magic. The magic is the best part!

I agree with the walks part (esspecially with my family who finds the need to walk ALL THE WAY AROUND to American Pavillion and then BACK TO THE OTHER side for lunch where we started at to begin with. Why not just go around the first time?!
Also I'd recommend eating at the Epcot countries, I never have though since my parents always just ate in the Land building (yuck...)

I would say to definitely go to a character dinner. Every time my family goes, the character dinner is one of our favorite memories...and we're basically all adults! lol.
I would also say to ride the monorail around the circuit before you go into the parks. This may sound silly, but I love that anticipation build-up that you get from seeing Spaceship Earth and Cinderella Castle from the monorail. It's just gorgeous!

no, it's not. Club Cool is a place in EPCOT. it's basically a tasting station of different types of Coca-Cola from all over the world. and as Golden_Eagle mentioned, the Beverly is a drink you'll never forget once you taste it.

Beverely is a once in a lifetime taste :) ... Club Cool gives you itty bitty cups to sample various Coke products from around the world and I was unable to finish the Beverely one... even in so small a cup
I see MaryPoppins86 beat me to it but that's the gist of Beverly. I recommend everyone try it at least once.

aww... it's not THAT bad. From what I remember from it (its been a couple of years), it has a REALLY bitter taste to it. Then again, pure lemons give me problems too

since i was the first in my family to go to Club Cool during my family's vaca, i told my sisters to try the Beverly and that it was great. i will never forget the looks on their faces for as long as live.
oh great what did i get myself into!:scared:
you should try all the drinks though. majority of them are really good. you'd be surprised. and if you're there during the summer on a hot day, you'll never want to leave cause it's so nice and cool in there.

for me the taste was beyond bitter. but then everyone is different. i know of a few people that actally liked Beverly.

I have another tip -outside the joys of Beverly- Most of the drinks were great though. Especially the watermelon one
Make sure you ride the Ferry to the Magic Kingdom at least once! Definitely a different perspective from riding the monorail every day.

another thing i remeber. i believe there's a few at AK but for me the experience was at MK on main street, USA. if you listen carefully, on the second level of some of the buildings, you'll hear stuff going on. like for me i heard a male tap dance teacher getting frustrated with his students. sorry i don't remember the exact location i was at. all i remember was sitting on a bench right outside of the jewelry place on main street. at first i was kinda spooked, wondering what was going on. i literally sat there for about 10 min just listening.
