Adult only trip to check out all resorts, what are the must dos? And other tips.

Oh, you definitely need to see The American Adventure. The Benjamin Franklin audioanimatronic walks up stairs, Will Rogers twirls a lasso, and it ends with an all-too-pertinent warning about increasing leisure. I love it, my DH takes naps there.

Hmm I might even be a bit excited for it now.

My husband loved it. I was very tired so I was just trying to stay awake. My husband is now wanting to grow kale upside down.

Everyone needs to see it at night when it's decorated for the holidays. It's renamed Living with the Land – "Glimmering Greenhouses."

Yes, I did the Glimmering Greenhouses version!
They need to include a LL trip on the ride as part of the tour IMO.

Oh man there’s a tour. Not 100% sure if I will share this with my husband or not.

My son really wants to do this. We just need to figure out how to get him scuba certified.

We’ve done the tour and it was a big hit from my kids to my mother-in-law— we even got to try Land-grown produce. I’m not sure how much things have changed in the past few years, but we did glimmering greenhouses behind the seeds and it was less than $50/person.

Probably $150 and less produce to try

I am intrigued, Im going to take a look.

$33 pp w/ the discount. All sold out on our dates, I think I will keep checking to see if something pops up.

Considering selling my CCV for BLT or BWV. Really hoping I dont walk away feeling the need to buy direct at Poly.

Touring Poly made me 100% sure I did not want to own there, and at least 50% sure that we won’t stay there either. The rooms themselves are great but the points chart is insane for highly questionable views. Not worth rolling the dice for a “theme park view” involving going to the very edge of our balcony, leaning way over the railing, and still seeing 95% Grand Floridian.

I’m not afraid of expensive points charts. But the classifications are a joke.

Im already in that boat with VDH

Okay I need help deciding. We did decide though that we will skip any extra fancy dinners since I don't want to be committed to having to go back to the room to change and freshen up first.

We will only have 2 nights. Which of these 2 would you recommend?

1. TOTWL Book Wicked Wind Down at BLT (if available if not just try to get in the lounge).
2. Geyser Point at CCV around 9:00 and catch the water pageant (have never seen)
3. Be at Epcot to watch the Fireworks. (have only seen them partially once in 2021, my son is currently not a fan of fireworks so we didn't watch them last month)

For sure the best way to experience Luminous is from inside Epcot. I finally gave it a chance after being super disappointed the first time we saw it, and now I enjoy it much more and tear up each time.

I’d say toss up between the first two since we also prefer to watch HEA from inside MK
