I'll be heading over to WDW in a few weeks to celebrate my birthday. I want to do something fun and not of the norm on my actual birthday besides the usual of eating at my favorite restaurant. Any ideas? I was thinking about doing a tour or seeing La Nouba since I've never been to a Cirque du Soleil show before. This will be my fourth time at WDW and my first time solo.
No one else has pitched in yet so going to try to get your thread hopping. Can't really go wrong with tours and La Nouba. Going to throw these out since I don't know anything about interests, budget, age, tickets, where staying, etc:
- try to join in with someone "selling" a seat on their Illuminations cruise
- go to Jelly Rolls and have them (tip) play your favorite song
- drink around the world at Epcot
- Exotic Driving Experience
- hot air balloon at Downtown Disney (assuming its still running)
- Sunday Gospel brunch at House of Blues at Downtown Disney
- sign up online with Earl of Sandwich and get a certificate for either a brownie or sandwich on your birthday (can't remember what it was or if they still do this)
- set your personal record of how many times you can ride Expedition Everest using the single rider line in one hour (highly recommend empty stomach and take a motion sickness pill); in truth, pick one of your favorite rides and set a "record" that you actually care about lol
- if a milestone birth date (like 40th or kids are finally away to college) get a couple of starter pin sets and trade/buy your way to your own "personalized" birthday lanyard which by the end of the day you will have as a keepsake (wherever you go, ride, play and eat get a pin via trade or purchase)
Hope this helps!
Cheers!
