If you’ve got a longer trip planned, lucky you! Why not spend your first day outside of the parks? Often, guests are so tempted to get in every last ride in at the parks that the special qualities of the resorts are often overlooked.
Take a dip in the pool, or explore your resort. Many of the Walt Disney World Resorts have won awards for their spectacular design and you can have a fun day just exploring your resort grounds. There are opportunities to shop and participate in activities on your first, restful day in Disney.
If you are planning to stay just a few days, getting right into a park is probably on your agenda. But there’s no need to rush through the whole park in one day! Try a more laid-back approach: pick one headliner attraction you really want to experience and grab a FASTPASS for it as soon as you arrive.
Instead of waiting in the line, you can now slow down and just take in the atmosphere of the theme park you chose. Maybe it’s the smell of cotton candy on Main Street, USA in the Magic Kingdom or watching a crazy performance by the “Streetmosphere” characters at Disney’s Hollywood Studios that makes your day. You can always watch the amazing fountains at Epcot or go down the nature trails at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park. Whatever your interest, be sure to soak it all in.
However you spend your first day, be sure to end with a bang! Try making it to one of Disney’s nighttime spectaculars or maybe have a character dinner. Chef Mickey’s at Disney’s Contemporary Resort is a perfect way to celebrate being in Disney World.
Whatever you decide, know that your magical vacation has just begun and you’re going to have a fabulous time!
