    hi doug.im from indiana.coming to disney last week of mar.plane arrives @3pm. 1st timers.staying@all star sports.6 dd &dh suggest going dtd &see a movie for 1st day.but im overly excited &want to go to mk.girls are 17,14,12,10,3&2. Advice?

    Michelle,

    I am a movie fan as much as the next mom, but you are at Disney World, the single most popular vacation destination in the world. And you are in Orlando, Florida. Is that the time you want to go sit in a dark, cool movie theater just like you could in Indiana?

    I think not!

    You have several choices. The first is to go to a park. The Magic Kingdom is the obvious choice, and a good one to boot. But perhaps you think that you won't get enough time in the park to justify the extra day of park tickets? Well check and see how much more it really adds. You might be surprised how little one more park day costs, even for a family as large as yours, if you already had 3 or more days purchased.

    But if it is too expensive, do what I prefer to do anyway. Go swimming. Explore your resort. Shop and dine at Downtown Disney. Plan a great and fun kickoff dinner. Consider 'Ohana, or Whispering Canyon Cafe.

    Let me know if you need more specific suggestions in one of these areas!

    Have a magical vacation!
