which parks are best for cool or rainy weather?

It looks like there may be 1 very cool day and 1 rainy day during our visit. Which parks have the most indoor things to do so we can plan accordingly?

I want to ret to do magic Kingdom on a nice day.
Thanks!

Well it doesn't have a lot of indoor stuff, but whenever we are there and it rains we get our ponchos on and head gleefully to Animal Kingdom! We do the safari and the walking trails. The animals love the rain and it is the best time to see them! They come closer and play- it is great! The gorillas usually seek shelter right up against the glass that you stand close to to view them. We also enjoy doing Bugs Life and Dinosaur whenever we need a break from the wetness. Riding Kali River Rapids is great when you are already wet and wearing your poncho! If it is just downright cold though, and not rainy, we head to MGM since most of their rides are indoors (TOT, RNr, Great Movie ride, Star Tours, Millionaire, Little Mermaid, Disney Playhouse, Muppetvision etc.) We also like to duck into Sci Fi for a dessert to get out of the cold. We wouldn;t care if it was snowing- we are at WDW!!

MGM as our "rain-day" park. With the number of shows, indoor rides, etc., it just works better for us to put on the ponchos and go!

Believe it or not but MK actually does have a lot of indoor rides. It's just getting to them that is harder. I didn't believe it until we were there one time and it was pretty rainy - when everybody was leaving we stayed and enjoyed rides without lines - It's a Small World, Winnie the Pooh, Peter Pan, Pirates, Space Mountain, Buzz, Teacups you can do in the rain as long as it's not a sidewards rain, Haunted Mansion, Hall of President's, Country Bear and any other shows and even the character area across from Pooh you'll find characters because they are under cover.

Then there's the shops on Main Street - did you know you can start at one end and go straight through to the other end? Great for a rainy time period.

And if you love Epcot World Showcase and don't ever get a chance to go to the Imagineering part of Epcot - a rainy day is a great day for that too because almost all of that stuff is indoors and you can spend hours at some of that stuff.

MGM is our rainy day park. It has predominantly covered/indoor shows and attractions.
