Anything you just never get around to doing trip after trip?

For the last few trips we have been determined to see the AKL but were so busy we never got around to it. Also, I swear I am going to have banana stuffed french toast at the Poly every trip, but haven't had them since we were there in 1989!

What are some of your "must do's" that you can't seem to find the actual time to do? :p
 
As a DVC person, I plan to watch the fireworks from the top of Bay Lake Towers, and every trip I get distracted.

I would also like to spend the day at the Jambo House pool, never been there.

I also look forward to trying the blue zoo, but I don't.

Ride the boat across the Epcot basin to Germany or Italy in the world showcase, I have never been on that boat.
 
Cinderella's royal table- never could get the right ADR, and forgot about it with BOG.. now DD is asking.
 
Hoop Dee Doo - never enough time, for one reason or another
 

Three trips and I haven't made it on TSM.

First trip we had young children and illnesses so we skipped HS. Second trip TSM was down when we got to it and because it was down FP were gone or only available for later than we were going to be out with young children. Third trip my brother and I decided to do RNRC through the single rider line. The line was supposed to be something like 10 minutes, but turned into an hour. We weren't sure how close we were to getting on or what an easy way to get out was and, honestly, having never ridden it either we chose RNRC over TSM. Had to text the rest of our party to tell them to do TSM without us. By the time we got out of RNRC we could have made our FP window for TSM, but we had an ADR to be at in 5 minutes.

TSM is my Disney Achilles. I have a hard time imagining any ride worthy of the TSM hype and lines.
 
We are at AKL now and its our first time to stay here. Really pretty and great staff. Lay out is alot like WL. We will definitely be back. Heard lots of people say buses are really slow here, but we have not seen that. From AKL to AK 12 min, AKL to Hollywood studios 15 min. Wonderful resort.
 
Flights of Wonder. It's the only park attraction we've never done, and somehow I'm never able to make it a priority.
 
First time we rode it was the year it opened. We rode it to death that trip. We have been unable to get into it ever since, until today. My son is a huge TS fan and we have been trying to get him on it ever since. Finally today got FP's and were on in no time. Very cool.
 
Was in Jambo pool today. Weather was cool late in the day but the hot tub was great.
Good luck on the Bay Lake Tower thing. I am jealous of that. If I was a DVC member I would want Bay Lake or WL as my home resort. Glad to see a fellow Missourian on here. We are headed back Monday.

Have fun! Crowds should good for you. We stay at Kidani usually, but never take the time to head over the Jambo House pool.

Each time I am planned to visit the Top of the World lounge at BLT, we change up and do something else. I will do it next time for sure.
 
Tea at the GF and Hoop Dee Doo. And in 8 years as DVC members we've only been to the water parks twice. On the schedule for our next trip!
 
Characters in flight. The weather has just never co-operated with the times we are at DTD
 
Seven trips and I have never seen the Boardwalk or walked through International Gateway. I would also like to take the boat across the World Showcase.
 
We have never seen the afternoon parade at AK. Usually we visit AK in the morning and park hop in the afternoon. Can't seem to schedule an afternoon at AK!

Next trip rope drop something and then hop to AK in the afternoon to catch the parade. After that look out because people will be leaving in droves. We tried this last trip and we able to do everything we wanted multiple times. Everest we did 3 times in a row with no wait. River Rapids a couple of times. It really was a neat way to spend the afternoon and have a similar to rope drop experience.
 
Never get around to eating fish and chips in Epcot. Last year we went to Epcot one night specifically do that got side tracked.

Every trip I always want to spend a few hours in Epcot by myself. My wife and daughter usually go back and nap sometime during the day and I always say I'm going to run to Epcot but I end up going and sitting at resort. They are not fans of World Showcase at all.
 
I'm sad to admit that I've never done Test Track. In three trips, it was a ride buddy with a bad back, too long a line/too late a FP return time with tired kids/hubby, or, the last time, closed for the big refurb.

I'd also like to finally see rope drop at MK. I'm always just a little too late (and I blame the slowpokes in my group every time).
