Sister's first trip, what are the must dos?

[StrikersMom]

Hi guys! Although this is my sixth trip to the world it will be my sister's first and I was wondering what you all think she should definitely not miss while in the world. She's 25, I'm 28 and she's not really the planning type, so most has been left to me. (I'm fine with it, really.) Anyway, what are your suggestions? The only 'must' she has on her list is Muppet 3-D so far. She also picked Le Cellier and 50s Prime Time for restaurants. Thanks!

from the listings u mentioned i am guessing you are going to MGM. Must-dos are Rock'n Roller Coaster. Very smooth and Very fast Tower of terror is fun also! whoops gtg, class is over!! but htose are a MUST!

I'm sure you'll get a lot of answers about the attractions, so I'm just going to say don't miss the Animal Kingdom Lodge and dinner at Boma or Jiko. Something different, well worth doing. Ask about night time storytelling for an added treat.

If you are going to be there for a few days I would say to go to Pleasure Island one night. Watch the show at the comedy club and then go over to the Adventurers Club for a while. I also agree about dinner at Boma's. We really enjoyed this meal. Love to try new foods.

I've been dying to get my sister to go! I'm coming up on my 6th trip with my son too. She's never been. I'm 41 and she's 40. I've given this alot of thought since I'm trying to get her to go and I've been thinking too of what things to do that might get her "hooked" as much as me! Now, you have to think of what she would like, not you. I like roller coasters and rides. She does not. I would defineatly try to take the monorail and wait to ride in the front. I think the view the newbies would see would be incredible, I know it is to me! If you have time, tour the monorail resorts. I know my sister would love to see them. I think the shows are good too, Beauty and the Beast, Indiana Jones, Millionaire, Muppets, Philharmagic, Tarzan, Lion King. How much time do you have??? Of course, if she likes rides, do them all!! Epcot has some hidden gems that alot of people miss, like Ellen Degeneres in the Energy Pavillion and The Land's boat ride through the plants (it's my favorite). The WS is another favorite of my son's and I. Try to catch the Army Men in MGM. I wasn't that thrilled with Fantasmic but the other fireworks and parades are great to see. I could go on, but I don't want to overload! I hope you both have a great time!!! I'm still working on my sister. I really hope I can get her to go with me soon. I don't even care if she brings her 3 kids!!! They can be overwhelming at times; they're all so hyper. (10, 12 & 14 yrs old) We'd have a blast though!

I hope you can get your sister to go sometime soon too! Unfortunately, we are only able to stay for 3 nights as I am fitting the bill (she can't afford it otherwise. Thanks tax return!) She does like rides, but not coasters. However, she said since Rock N' Roller Coaster has the overhead restraints and BTMRR looks tame, she'll probably try those. She did get a little freaked out by Rock N' RC when we watched the planning video and saw how fast it takes off though. I wish I could get her on Space Mtn, but I don't think that'll happen. She's a ride person, and has shown some interests in Pirates and the Haunted Mansion as well. We also decided we would brave the factor and try Mission Space. I also hope to get her to Wishes, Illuminations and Spectromagic. Any more suggestions are welcome!
