Thanks for the information!

I thought it was just Mr. & Mrs. Easter Bunny!

Too bad I'll be in PA! The activities sound like fun!

nothing that I know of but thats not saying something(s) could already be scheduled. I would try calling the Contemporary and ask. Enjoy your time down here

A lot of fun - it is nice to see the resorts are doing things for their guests who are away from home on Easter. (But we will be entrenched in the parks by 9:00 a.m. ) The Ft. Wilderness Easter Baskets - now that's something to look into!

 

[DanStat]

I love the Easter Baskets. They had them last year at AKL.

I can't wait! :sohappy:

I always had a great time at the Easter Egg "SCRAMBLE" at Caribbean Beach. There were always an abundance of characters and good chocolate. It was a fun thing to do after church at the Contemp. in the Fantasia Ballroom. Even if the services and easter parades cease to exist and the easter flowers are toned down from previous years, at least they still have kept the egg hunts.

Good idea- I think we are going to stay clear of MK on Easter. We have PS at Le Cellier (my nephews choice) so I think we will just hang out at Epcot. Maybe rent a boat in the morning. Of course, I have to hide easter eggs in the room!! I am getting so excited!!!!:sohappy: :sohappy: :sohappy:

For you pin collecters, do not forget the Easter Day 2004 pin which will be available Easter morning. Get it early because they normally run out by noon time.

Hi

Thanks for the info...we are staying at the Animal Kingdom lodge...is there anything AK guests can take their kids to, elsewhere...I see many of the ones you listed are that particular resort's guest only..was just wondering if there was anything, kind of like universal for all guests at all lodges..thanks..t

Keep in mind these are last year's dates and events (Easter is March 27th this year)
I have read in several places that Disney will not release info on this year's activities until 7-10 days out (that would be March 17-20)

Gives us a good idea of things, though. Thanks!
