Fun Beyond the Parks

[Roxy217]

Hi Everyone

We are going to WDW in August with our 3 children - ages 15, 11 and 8. We've been to the parks many times and truly find new and exciting experiences to make each trip interesting. This time we have decided to focus our experience on staying out of the theme parks. We know Disney has so much to offer beyond the traditional theme park experience and we want to know ALL the little details! So who better to ask then our friends at the DIS?! We are an easy going bunch and up for most anything. We are staying at Old Key West and Bay Lake Tower. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thanks ºoº

Wow! Thanks for starting my list I like to plan ahead so do you think it would be possible to get activities from a few resorts in advance? I know that the Beach Club has movies on the beach but I'm not sure of times, etc.
