DH and I love spending time in Downtown Disney. Having lunch or dinner at Wolfgang Pucks Cafe and hanging out in the World of Disney and Virgin MegaRecord Store are a few of our favorite things to do. We especially like being there at night, it has such a different feel to it.

How about you guys?
 
My best memory was taking my two dgd's. They came from Germany and couldn't speak English. They understood it though. It was also my first trip. Just to see the girls faces light up when meeting the well loved charachters was so awesome. I was amazed......the Disney bug hit me. Never in my life have I ever had a strong feeling to go back to a place I had visited. I've been going back every year solo...another thing , I never went solo any where. Something about the Mouse keeps drawing me back.
 
Swimming in the afternoon....then taking a nap before heading back to the parks!
 
I just love to sit on the porch at OKW<a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/200.gif' border=0></a> after the kids are in bed with my favorite beverage with DH. <a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/12/12_4_63.gif' border=0></a> It is so lovely. I also love to enjoy the jacuzzi bathtub after a long day in the parks for the tired ole muscles!<a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/1065.gif' border=0></a>
 

Go to Comedy Warehouse at Pleasure Island. I enjoy improv comedy.
 
<font color=navy>I go to Disneyland a lot -- I like to people watch when I'm there.
 
I used to love just hanging around the old fountain at the entrance to epcot, before they put in that awful jagged stone garbage. It was so peaceful. (I have actually taken to going into the park through the WS entrance, as the FW entrance just sets me off.) If I had to choose now, it would be just walking anywhere at night. I just love the twinkling trees, the sounds, the smells. The calm that settles over the parks, and you just know there are fairies about, working their magic. I always feel like I'm dreaming. So that is my favorite part, and may be as good, if not better than the rides (tho there are a few exceptions :) )

Keep the Faith!

Riding the Water Mice~and of course RELAXING!!!!
 
Hang around on the Boardwalk
Swim at the hotel
Visit other resorts
 
I'd have to say, its a toss-up between pin-trading at DTD, or taking the kids to DisneyQuest. I get to relax in the wonderland cafe with a cup of coffee, a dessert, and a book while they play. Great people-watching, too!!
 
Our stroll around the Epcot resorts after having dinner at the cape may cafe.
 
:D We also love DTD. I could spend a whole day there and be perfectly happy. I also love visiting one of the hotels for a mid-day meal and just exploring the grounds. It's so quiet since most people are at the parks.
 
Watching the fireworks show at the end of the night at MK. :) Reminds me of the very first time I did that with my brother and sister on our first trip and I can't wait to go back, to watch the expression on my son's face when he sees them for the first time.

I like strolling around the Boardwalk, especially at night. It's quite lovely there and a great place to people-watch. I also like to stop in to the Big River Brewing Company for a beer.

I also have had a lot of fun touring the resorts. This is really special during the Christmas season, when they are all decorated for the holidays!
 
I like strolling around the Epcot area resorts too....both of our trips last year, we did just that after eating at Cape May Cafe. On my girl's trip, we rocked for awhile in the rockers at the Beach Club and watched a teeny bunny rabbit hop along the path- it was magical. I also like lingering at the Wilderness Lodge before and after dinner....

And I love the Once Upon a Toy store at DtD. I love DtD in the evening, with the lights twinkling, the Disney music playing...magic.
 
Walking around the Boardwalk on an evening.
Swimming in SAB.
Sitting in the rocking chairs outside the yacht club on an evening with my friends after a glass of wine at Marthers Vineyard.
Sitting in the Dunes Cove Pool at the BCV at night.
