We are arriving the morning of 10/8 and are planning to go to the Hoop De Doo that night. If we book the 7:15 show can we watch the fireworks from Fort Wilderness at 9pm or will the show not end in time? If we have to book the 5pm show what can we do to kill time at Fort Wilderness before the fireworks start? We'll have 2 boys under 8 with us. Thanks:wizard:
 
Your view of Wishes from Ft Wilderness will not be stellar...spotty at best. If it were me, I would make ressies for the early HDDR show. After the show, go the marina right there near Pioneer Hall, and take the launch (small boat) to the Contemporary. Then, hop the monorail to the Polynesian, and go down to the beach there for some great Wishes viewing. They even pipe the soundtrack in on the beach. Just pull up some lounge chairs and enjoy. The launch (small boat) between Ft Wilderness and Contemporary also makes stops at Wilderness Lodge...so do some sightseeing there too if you have time. It's a beautiful hotel. Going to the early HDDR will give you plenty of time for this travel and exploration before the fireworks begin. Hope you have an awesome vacation!
 
We had a great view from the boat last year. The Skipper stopped in the middle of the lake until the fireworks were over.
 
That's super! Unfortunately, there's not a way to plan on that happening all the time...you had a very nice skipper.

The soundtrack is no longer piped into the beach area. Not so you can hear it anyway
