Last day is normally DHS for rope drop. A couple of rides on TOT and I hop over to EPCOT for a ride on SSE and JIYI. Next, I head to DtD to WOD for a few things. Normally, I am on I-4 heading home around 1 or 2.
I like to park hop, so I do not spend the whole day in one park. I begin in either Animal Kingdom or Epcot and hit the favorites (EE, KRR, and Dinosaur in AK or Soarin, Maelstrom, and Journey Into Imagination in Epcot). I usually head back to the hotel early for one last swim - I am in Michigan so it can be a long time before I get the chance again.
In late afternoon, I always finish at Magic Kingdom, the most magical park. I hit a few faves (Haunted Mansion, Big Thunder Mountain, Pirates) and mostly soak up the atmosphere. I end with dinner at Tony's - long time tradition and catching the parade and some shopping on Main street. It's making me miss it just thinking about it!
The time of the flight and having a three year old and amount of days you have to spend at Disney in total, all kind of hinder the last day desires. Our flight does take off about 12noon, so I head off to the Polynesian Hotel to eat my Tonga Toast at the Kona Cafe. Sit there and relish all the Magical times we had- conspire to hop on the monerail and head into the Magic Kingdom, ( my fav. park)-- knowing that I can't.
If I had diff. circumstances, I think I would hop around a little, go to the Magic Kingdom to get a good dose of Mickey's Magic, hang out at the hotel and enjoy the peacefulness and then pick a great place for dinner and drinks-and then watch "Wishs" fireworks from the Poly. beach.
First of all, Great thread
Being young and only really being with friends on my last few trips really gives us the freedom to do what we want on our last day. The last day is used to let it all out and leave nothing behind. We try to squeeze in as many of the rides starting early at epcot, then on to AK and toping the day off at either MK or DHS (MK is my preference with the last ride of the trip being space).
In my opinion if you know it wont be 6-12 months before your next trip you need to make that last day worth it
However my trip coming up (although not for 6 months) will be the first with the gf and im not sure she will be up for all this :ROFLOL:
World Showcase is a very nice place to spend your last day, especially if you are looking for a more relaxing, low key end to your trip. Hit SSE on the way in, go straight to World Showcase and take your time, then hit SSE again on the way out.
Yes once before, we liked it better than ASMuVery kool last day tradition :sohappy::sohappy:
Have u stayed at pop before??

I have to agree with you 100%. Trip HAS to end in the Magic Kingdom. Only difference is I end my day with Wishes. Seems a happier note to end on than the Goodnight Kiss to me.
