Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Charles! Thank you for stopping by with such a great question.
The tickets you must be referring to are those that include the Park Hopper Plus Option (formerly called Water Parks Fun & More) and let me tell you, Charles, they are very flexible and include a ton of fun activities! Not only will they allow you to visit the theme parks but you will get the same amount of extra or "Plus" activities/visits, which include admission to the following locations:
-Disney's Blizzard Beach
-Disney's Typhoon Lagoon (currently closed for refurbishment)
-ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex (some events require additional admission, valid only on event days)
-Disney's Oak Trail Golf Course
-Disney's Fantasia Gardens Miniature Golf Course (one mini golf visit per day before 4:00 p.m.)
- Disney's Winter Summerland Miniature Golf Course (one mini golf visit per day before 4:00 p.m.)
That's a lot of fun packed in one ticket, right? For example, for the 5-Day Park Hopper Plus ticket you purchased, you could "hop" between all theme parks for those five days and use the "Plus" tickets/admissions on five other days. Just keep in mind that those tickets will expire 14 days after the first use. If you would like to, though, you can combine admissions and say, spend the morning at one of the Water Parks, then head over to Disney's Fantasia Gardens Miniature Golf Course for the afternoon and finally finish your day with some spectacular fireworks at Epcot. Wouldn't that be an awesome day?
As for the
Dining Plan, it is valid during your resort stay, so you would get entitlements for the nine days you will be staying at Disney's Pop Century.
I hope this information is useful, Charles. I wish you a fabulous vacation!
