50 ideas you say? Well I've broken it down to 10 in each park, 10 in the resorts,etc.
Magic Kingdom
1. Take a long break in the middle of the day at very comfortable Crystal Palace. Pooh and the gang are there. The food is good and the air conditioning is awesome
2. Grab an ice cream and a spot for the Electrical Parade. Watch the parade and stay there for Wishes and the fireworks. A great chance to rest and talk at the end of the day.
3. Ride the people mover. Never a line and they'll let you stay on multiple times
4. Carousel of Progress. It takes up a ton of time, is inside and never a wait
5. Philharmagic. Same reasons as Carousel of Progress
6. Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor. Every show is different. Sometimes a wait but it's worth it. A good way to relax in the a/c and still be entertained.
7. Tiki Room. No lines, a/c.
8. Country Bear Jamboree. It's still entertaining to me although some have grown weary of it. Good time killer and again a/c
9. Grab a Dole Whip Float. Find a bench in view of the spitting camel by the magic carpets. People watch. It's always a must for us. People lose their minds when they don't realize it was the camel that got the, wet.
10. Magic Kingdom railroad. It takes you around the entire park and is a great chance to relax.
Hollywood Studios
1. Indiana Jones stunt show. Great time killer to get off your feet.
2. Beauty and the Beast show. Same as above
