    Our plan for meals so far...any suggestions?

    Disney Springs has some wonderful CS and TS dining options. We love Blaze Pizza, Polite Pig, and Homecoming on our last trip. We were OOP, and felt they were all a great deal for cost. Enjoy your trip.

    We are here now. Building 24. The walk seems a little far when you forget something and need to go back from main pool. Especially when u add in heat and being at park all day. But it is a peaceful walk and not more than 6-8 minutes like Andre said. It is a great resort!
