What's on Your Disney Bucket List?

[sunshine1]

Be able to afford, just once, to stay in one of the deluxe resorts.

Parasailing at the Contemporary!

2. To send the children on the pirates cruise while I go get a spa treatment (lol)

Why the lol mshanson3121?!
I did this 9 years ago~ it was wonderful!
I was with DS(5) and DS's best friend(5) and his mom and dad (who are my friends).
The boys went on the cruise and I went to the GF spa for a massage.
I tried to convince my friend to go with me (as did her husband) but she said she'd feel guilty~ so she drug her husband with her to GF to drop off her son and they sat at the Grille the entire trip.
After the trip her only regret was not going to the spa with me

I hope you fulfill this bucket list item!

Mostly just because, it will probably never happen.

Oooh! I want to add this one to my list, too!

 

[wisblue]

We've been wanting to do the Wild Africa Trek, and plan to do it this March.

 

[alopez926]

1)10 nights in a monorail resort
2) 5 nights at the Grand Californian
2)Visit all Disney Parks in the span of 3 years (i mean, let's be reasonable!)
3) VIP tour at all parks
4) Lunch with an Imagineer
5) Private tour of Walt's apt. in DL

• A week at Aulani, please!
• A Disney cruise
• A stay in the Dream Suite inside DLR
• An invite to Club 33

As far as WDW goes, we are planning our first trip (and likely last for a long time, as we live in driving distance to DLR), and the purpose of our trip is to celebrate my in-laws' 50th anniversary, so we are doing a lot of bucket-list type things such as:

• Dinner in Cinderella's Royal Table (you mean you can eat IN the CASTLE??? WHAAAA??? Gotta do that!)
• an Illuminations cruise (sounds spectacular!)

 

[dalmatian7]

I totally get this. Poly was my holy grail. I had been to WDW a couple of times a kid and stayed off-property.

As I kid coming in on the monorail in the morning from offsite and seeing all those people eating in the Contemporary, and watching them build the Grand Floridian, I thought only "rich" people could stay onsite. Granted we took a charter bus trip to go to Florida. It wasn't until I was researching my honeymoon that I actually looked at how much it would cost to stay onsite vs offsite or for a trip to an island. Needless to say, it was do-able and now I am hooked. If only I had found these sites sooner, I would have done a solo trip in my 20s or understood just what the college program was.

I wish I had gone when we were young too, before we had kids. It's amazing what I have missed out on. I love taking our son, but I can't wait until we can go solo. I am hoping to do the RP (Retirement Program) somewhere in the parks, once I stop doing my regular job.

Win the lotto, retire, move to the Florida East Coast with an ocean view, get an annual pass and go to WDW whenever I want. I think it would be really cool to be a character in the parks for one day. Let's do it in the winter so I don't sweat to death. I'm 62 and I don't do heat very well which is why my wife and I travel every year in February. 47 days and I'm back.

 

[ofcabbagesandkings]

Our next trip won't be until 2017, so there will be a lot open then that I'm excited to see, including the new Soarin', the Frozen ride in Norway, Avatarland and Rivers of Light. We also didn't get to do many thrill rides last trip for health reasons so I can't wait to do those too. Apart from these my list for that trip:

1. Wild Africa Trek for me and DH
2. Dinner at Cali Grill with Wishes
3. Avocado Margarita at La Cava, rum spiked Dole Whip at AKL, just give me all the booze once this baby is out.

Congrats and add a Grey Goose slush(France) and a Leaping Leprechaun(R&C) to your list

 

[2manypets]

My one and only item on my bucket list is to eat at V&A. DH thinks it's a waste of money and doesn't want to put on a suit and tie. I may have to bribe him one of these days or maybe go on a solo trip.

 

[BelleBriarRose]

2manypets, I am totally with you. V&A is definitely on my Disney bucket list, but it's not the only item there. I have an impossibly long Disney bucket list, but every time I go I cross at least one item off of it, so that helps!

Neither of those is to be missed. The hibiscus margarita is really good too. The Dole Whip with rum at Epcot during the Flower & Garden fest is good too. Instead of dark rum, we got the macadamia nut rum.

I need to try the Grey Goose slush this time. I might need to be wheeled out of Epcot with all of the adult beverages that I want to get this tripI haven't heard of the Leaping Leprechaun. What's in it?

We felt V&A was worth it. If you like food, then it's a no brainer. Maybe you could ditch DH and meet up with someone from DIS. You know you would have Disney in common, so there would be a lot to talk about

Where does one find this hibiscus margarita that you speak of???? Is it only available during the Flower & Garden Festival?

La Cava Tequila Bar in Mexico. It's the same place with the avocado margarita.
