Disney 'Bucket List'

Hi all,

I'm off to WDW in July as part of a group of 4, and it's the first time we've visited in 10 years (two of the members have actually never been before) and we've been compiling a Bucket List of little things we definitely want to do there!

So far, we have:

- Try all the sodas in Club Cool
- Have a caricature drawn
- Meet Gaston!
- Meet Donald (my sister is completely obsessed)
- Attempt to finish the kitchen sink
- See Cirque du Soleil
- Visit the Rose & Crown and compare it to a real British Pub ;)
- Stay in MK until 2am

Does anyone has have a little list of things they want to do at the World that they haven't done on previous trips? Or things that they love doing so much that they know they just have to do again?

Would love to hear some thoughts and perhaps get some more inspiration to add to my own list! :inlove:

Here are a few of our bucket list items for out trip in September:

Wild Africa Trek
Watch Fantasmic!
Ride Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
Ride Peter Pan's Flight (it has always been under refurbishment on previous visits)
Try a dessert/ something sweet in every country around World Showcase
Eat at Via Napoli
Watch Wishes from the Poly beach
Drink a lapu lapu
Try a churro
Write a trip report

Peter Pan's Flight is awesome :) I always get the tingles when we fly past Big Ben! I love the rest of your list too (especially the desserts! I'm going to be MUCH heavier when I get back from this trip! ;))

I love this thread! I've gotten lots of ideas. Here's what's on my list for this year's trip:
  • MNSSHP
  • Try dole whip
  • Wishes from California Grill
  • Tom Sawyer Island
  • Ride the Liberty Belle
  • MK opening show
  • Get my hair cut at Harmony Barber Shop
  • Animation Academy
Some for the future:
  • One of the MK tours
  • Stay at all the resorts once
  • Camp at FW in my dad's RV
  • Buy a piece of Disney art
I'm sure there are more that I'll think of later :) Can't wait to get back there later this year!!

Me too! So many ideas! I wish we were going for longer so I can fit them all in! :cry::arghh: ;);)

Oh my goodness, I love this list! Our trip almost feels like my first time too (it's been 10 years, so I mostly just remember Disney from grainy photographs!). I do remember my dad eating a Turkey leg though and him being completely shocked that it was actually a 'thing'! :joyfull: You would not find that in the UK! We also still have our autograph books from back then :) Can't wait to read your TR!
I'll have my first autograph book, so pretty excited ^_^ Thank you! Planning the trip is so much fun too:) All new for me :D Of course I'll do a TR!:) I want to make a photo book made, and a box too when I get back... all photos and tickets and stuff:) I'm a hoarder! xD
