Seeing how we have been 3 times in the last 7 yrs and have done all the major rides a million times. The problem is we want to do some more of the "Off the beaten Path things" and would like some suggestions on your favorite out of the way things to do in the parks or on property.

We haven't seen to many shows or done any tours. Anything at all would be great, trying to make our Nov/Dec this year a little different than the norm.

If everyone in your group is over 16 - try a Segway tour. We (me & Dh) did the tour in Epcot last month and had a blast. We did the 8:30am tour - 30 minutes training and over an hour going around a closed World Showcase - really cool.
There is also a segway tour at Fort Wilderness that we'll do on our next no-kiddies trip in a year or so.
I've heard great things about the Richard Petty driving experience - more affordable as a drive-along. I'd love to hear opinions if anyone has tried this!

How old are your kids if they are going?? We tried Disney Quest last year for the first time and our DD8 and DD11 loved it - they wanted to go this time and we said no since it was way too busy. We also go to Boardwalk early in an evening and we rent the large bicyles (seat 6 - 8) and ride around Boardwalk, and the Yacht and Beach Club. There's great evening entertainment there also and a great view of the EPCOT fireworks. We also go to Polynesian and rent a boat for an hour - the part barge ones - not the little sprites. I think you have the prettiest view from this port - the MK, Wilderness Lodge, Fort Wilderness, Grand Floridian....great views - we even rented a captain one year and this was cool since they tell you all kinds of Disney info you never knew (like that there is a wave machine in the bottom of the lagoon that they do not use). We often do some resort hopping - it's fun to grab ice cream at Grand Floridian or play on the beach at the Polynesian and sit by their beach campfire.

Something we have been considering for next year is to buy the "hidden Mickey" book and start riding the same rides the kids are a bit bored with but have them find the hidden mickeys on the rides - evidently there are tons of them hidden on all of the rides.

It's just my wife and I, we are DINKS for medical reasons. The Segway sounds neat.

Check out the passporter.com site. They have a very fun book that is a treasure hunt. My Mom and I spent a lot of time trying to find various places.
