Is spending family time at The Boardwalk worthwhile?

[Poohmom]

HI,

We have a few days of relaxation built in to our itinerary. Would it be fun to go to the Boardwalk during the day for a while? We have 3 kids 10 & under.

We plan to go to Downtown Disney, and are open to other ideas as well.

honestly - the boardwalk is a GHOST TOWN before 5pm.

you'd be better off at Downtown Disney.

You can always play minature golf - it is right across from the Boardwalk. We do enjoy walking around the Boardwalk - they have bikes you can rent, great ice cream and a bakery.

I believe the miniature golf is right across the street from e Swan/Dolphin. I know you can rent a surrey bike for half/hour or hour that all five of you can fit on (not aware of single bikes). You can also rent at Yacht Club the water sprites. There is more to see and do at night (a few carnival games/acts/etc.).

I would do DtD during the day and the BW in the evening. The atmosphere at night is great! You can rent a surrey bike, eat dinner from one of the food carts and sit at a table on the BW. Or, you could eat at one of the restaurants. Try B&C over at the BC. Also, there are performers that do skits on the BW. Some we have seen is the "cowgirl" with lasos, sword swallower, juggler, magician. You could eat icecream, go shopping, check out the resorts around the lake. Also they have carnival games like squirting the water into the clown mouth, basketball, etc. Also face painting, hair wrapping. It is alot of fun. That's why we have stayed there the last 2 times!!!
