She said "Been There Done That"

[lynn71092]

I have finally talked my sister into going with me back to WDW! Can you believe that I had to actually "talk her into it"? Anyway her logic was, "why, been there done that." So I'm going to try and show her that there's LOTS she hasn't done. We're doing Hoop-Dee-Doo Revue (a first) and our first Marathon Drink-A-Thon (you guys gave me ssooo many good ideas on that one). I'm considering Cirque or what about miniature golf? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated but it can't be too expensive. That's why I'm debating Cirque.
Thanks, I know you guys will come through with great ideas!

The Fantasia Mini-Golf has a pitch-and-putt course that I would love to try, but it wouldn't work for our kids (DD5 & DS4). Pleasure Island might be fun for you. If she's a shopper, DownTown Disney could be fun. You might also consider the water parks which have a lot of fun slides or if you like high-tech gadgets and games, DisneyQuest might be worth a look. DW and I did an Epcot bar-crawl (before kids) one time, getting a different beer in each country and really taking our time to go through the shops that we never seem to get a chance to go through. You definitely have the idea that there are a ton of things to do!

Has she done the water parks? How 'bout the WaterMice boat rentals. Maybe one of the behind the scenes tours -- I know some of them can be pricey but I think some are reasonable.

You guys are great!
I barely put it on and I already have answers. I should have mentioned though, water parks are out, neither of us does water parks.

Jellyrolls could be fun.

What does she enjoy? If she likes architecture and decorations - resort tours. If she likes plants, just wandering around looking at the landscaping? If she likes a "good time" Pleasure Island. DisneyQuest? Autograph hunting? Pin Trading? Shopping? Chatting with complete strangers on benches near the park?

I like the resort tours idea, especially with the holiday decorations.

How about a Segway Tour @ EPCOT? What a way to see World Showcase!!!!

I was also going to suggest the Segway tour! It is not inexpensive, but was our very favorite activity when we went this fall. It really made the trip, believe it or not, for my husband and me (I know, we are strange people ) .

Which I am sure you have already included in your plan, but what about Chef Mickey! Have a good hearty breakfast to last throughout the day!

Cirque isn't cheap but is well worth the money. Anybody who's seen it will tell you the same. We only went as it was my boyfriend's birthday and it was absolutely fantastic.

Go to the Adventurer's Club!!!

We've never done the Adventurers Club.
What's that all about?

My votes are for Cirque, Jellyrolls and the Adventurer's Club at PI, after you catch the early show at the Comedy Warehouse. The AC is modeled after stuffy Gentlemen's clubs of the early 20th century where globe-trotting adventurer's meet to display their discoveries and boast of their exploits. You're there to be inducted as a new member. The cast members interact with you and sometimes you're the show. It's a riot. There a several structured shows in various rooms, but you can just hang out in the main parlor, have a drink (or three) and take in all in . We usually stay there the whole night.
