    26 days! Arriving in Orlando a day early w/ 8, 5, 10mo. Staying off site the first night. Would still like to experience some "MAGIC" after a long 2 day car ride. Downtown Disney or Boardwalk? No reservations made! Suggestions? Never been to eit

    Hi Sara!  Wow!! Your Walt Disney World vacation is so close!!  I can sympathize wanting to feel that Disney Magic after a long car ride (We've done it from New York to Orlando)!  If I had to choose between Downtown Disney or Boardwalk, I would definitely choose Boardwalk.  It has a wonderful early century boardwalk decor, great entertainment such as musicians and street performers, and plenty of dining options.  Plus the fact that you can see Epcots Illuminations: Reflections of Earth from the boardwalk is such a very cool experience!  If you're up to it, you can enjoy an evening at Jellyrolls, which is a dueling piano/karaoke bar.  Or, you can dance til your hearts content at Atlantic Dance Hall, which happens to be right there on the Boardwalk.  You can spend a great evening as a start your magical vacation!

Hi there! The Disney Parks have been a part of my life since I was a little girl. Introducing my children, husband, and family to all the magic that Walt Disney World can offer has led to countless moments with Mickey and Friends, Disney Vacation Club membership and fun on the high seas with Disney Cruise Lines! Our vacations are usually centered around a visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth, and I am super excited to help you plan and create magical moments for you and your families!
