Hi there Tanya! There are plenty of things that you can do without entering the parks! Most are free or much less than a park admission.
Downtown Disney is really fun if you are into shopping, dancing, hanging out, or eating! Definitely head over there to shop or just people watch! Another nice shopping area which not too many people frequent is the
Boardwalk! You can walk all along the Boardwalk area and watch street performers in the evening doing some great juggling and magic tricks. There are some wonderful little eateries there as well.
Something that's a little more expensive would be a Character Breakfast at
Chef Mickey's! We have been on trips where that was the only thing we did and the kids love it! OK, I did too! You get some quality time with Mickey and his friends on a personal level!
These are just a few of the many activities found at the Walt Disney World Resort! I hope you enjoy your stay and if you have more questions, just let us know!
