DTD or other special out-of-park experience?

What would you do with half a day at DLR but no park ticket?

We won't have park tickets for our last (half)day at DLR. We'll sleep in, checkout around 10:30-11am, leave bags at hotel, then have a bunch of free hours until our Burbank airport flight leaves 5:30pm (we'll leave a loooong time for drive, which apparently can be awful between DLR - BUR).

WWYD in/around DTD for half a day?

We have kids ages 9 and 12... We've done Goofy's and Plaza Inn character meals on previous visits. I'm thinking they might be too old to really enjoy Storytellers character breakfast/brunch? Any other recommended restaurants/adventures for our last day?

If you’re staying at one of the Disney hotels I’d check your bags with the bell desk and swim/eat until it’s time to leave.

Another option is bowling/lunch at Splitsville.

We love bowling! Great suggestion. Not at Disney hotel, we're staying on Harbour...

Slightly OT, but for getting to Burbank, have you considered the Amtrak Pacific Surfliner train? There is a free bus from DLR to the Amtrak station (or you can uber) and then the trip from Anaheim to the Burbank airport station is just under 90 minutes. It could be a lower stress way to get to the airport so you don't even have to worry about traffic. It looks like there is a 2:10pm departure from Anaheim most days that gets you there at 3:38. Cost for all 4 of you would be $56.

Maybe visit Garden Walk?

Depending on where you're staying, leave your bags at the front desk, and walk to the theater (Harbor/Katella - head EAST, as I recall). There's a shopping center there, and as mentioned, a theater. We saw Eternals on the Thursday that it came out, while we were there with some free time. We were staying at Hotel Indigo at the time. Some nice restaurants there too!

THANK YOU! Excellent suggestion. Our plan had been to either Uber or use a reserved one-way car rental DLR->BUR. But rental costs $100 and we get pretty stressed when it comes to LA driving...
