Leaving for DWD in the morning? Have some ?

[jpage5]

We are leaving for WDW soon and have some questions?

1. What size are the strollers that they have for rent in the parks?

2. What is the best place to watch the electrical water pagent?

3. It is our first time in the park, THree adults and a preschool child, which land would you start at in MK?

4. Can you see the Epcot fireworks from anywhere besides the park itself?

5. What is the best place to eat in Downtown Disney/Marketplace?

2. I think that the best place to watch the water pageant is from the beach at the Polynesian.

3. personally, i don't think it matters much which land you start in. out of nostalgia (because my family always did it this way) we start in tomorrowland...but there's plenty of stuff to do on both sides for adults and for kids.

4. some people say that you can see the fireworks from the boardwalk/yachtclub. But you know...there's so much more to the show than fireworks and most of it happens pretty low level right on world showcase lagoon...you'd be missing ALOT. Heck, technically you can see (on a clear night) the fireworks (the high ones) from the california grille on top of the contemporary (we saw it once from there), but what's the point...you can't hear it, hear the music, or see 95% of the pyrotechnics...for the true experience, i think you have to be in the park.

5. depends on what kind of food/atmosphere you like...as well as budget.

HAVE FUNE!:sohappy: :wave:

We like to watch the electrical water parade from the beach or boat landing of the Wilderness Lodge (which is where we usually stay). The beach at the Poly is great, too.

I'm not sure of the exact dimensions of the strollers, but they are roomy enough (we actually had 2 kids in a single because the older one got tired).

We really only watch the fireworks at EPCOT so I can't really say, but I remember others saying they could see them from the Boardwalk.

Haven't eaten in Downtown Disney so I'm no help there. If you get over to the Boarkwalk try ESPN Club, the food is pretty good and you can catch a game or two (or five) while you eat.

Have a great trip and take some pics for us. :wave:

Well, I would start out in Fantasyland and then go to Mickeys Toon Town Fair, esp. if you arrive at MK when the park first opens. THis way the preschooler will get to ride the best childrens rides w/ out much line time.

The single strollers are roomy/ with shade cover and a handy pouch on the back as well. We rented a double and ended up with 3 in it because the oldest got tired! But they offer ample leg room, they do not however recline.
