Bad Weatehr ideas!

[damianinpa]

I will be taking the family down to Orlando for 1 week in July. I was curious of people's thoughts in case we get some days of solid Rain. I have a 9 yr old and two 5 yr olds. What would be good indoor places to go and see that will entertain the kids. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Damian

1) go to disney quest
2) go see a movie at the amc in dtd
3) put on some ponchos and go to the parks anyways -- it will be cooler and there will be less people around.

Many of the attractions in the parks are indoors, so throw on a poncho and keep walking. Make sure to wear sandels or if wearing sneakers, take extra socks. Nobody likes walking around in wet socks.
Also, a lot of people recommend Disney Quest, but on a rainy day it can get packed.
Good luck.

Our family is notorious for bringing rain to WDW - we always get several solid days of rain. BUT - we don't let it stop us. We throw on the ponchos and off we go! Just a word of warning, try to do AK early in the morning - it's not a very "rain friendly" park. There's alot of ground to cover and very little shelter. Best bet on a rainy day is MGM or Epcot.

I would also suggest throwing on a poncho and going to a park

...shopping is a good umbrella.

Couple years ago, we spent one rainy afternoon at the outlet malls.

Also ... I'm told the water parks clear out when it rains. You can frequently go there right after a storm and have the place to yourself!

The AMC movies at Downtown Disney are yet another good idea. And they are so large, with so many screens, there's something for everyone.

I saw poncho's and go.
