Hello Sharon!
Thank you for visiting planDisney! It sounds like you have quite the adventure planned. I hope you are having a wonderful time planning all of the practically perfect details. Soon you'll be celebrating with Mickey at the Walt Disney World Resort!
I took a look to see if I could view the current special offers for the
Walt Disney World Resort Australia site but noticed that it says in order to purchase your tickets prior to coming stateside, you'll need to reach out to a Travel Agent. They should be able to help you put together a custom package for you, depending on where you want to stay and how many days you want to visit.
If you would rather wait and purchase the tickets once you are in the U.S.A., you can access the
United States Walt Disney World Resort website, but please be aware that it may not be accessible until you are in the country.
Personally, I suggest at least one full day in each of the four theme parks: Magic Kingdom Park, EPCOT, Disney's Hollywood Studios and Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. If time allows, I always recommend at least one resort day to enjoy the amenities and the pool at your resort hotel. Also, because August tends to be so warm, I suggest a day at
Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park. It's a great way to beat the heat and the
Crush 'N' Gusher water coaster is so much fun!
I hope you have a wonderful vacation, Sharon! If there is anything else we are able to help you with, please let us know.
Magical Wishes,
Lauren
