10 Best Things To Do At Walt Disney World If You Don't Like Rides

1. Shop

Main Street USA is one of the best places in WDW to shop, and if the street is crowded, it's easy to make your way from the Train Station to Cinderella's Castle by walking through the stores.

2. Look for hidden Mickeys. 

Apparently, there are thousands of Hidden Mickey's scattered all over WDW, and you can even buy a book that gets updated every year on where to find them.

3. Eat 

There are great restaurants all over WDW, but if you're looking for the best food in the four main parks, head to EPCOT. There are several festivals in EPCOT throughout the year that have particularly delicious food, like the Food & Wine Festival, as well as the Flower & Garden Festival.

4. Play Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom

The game begins in the fire station on Main Street and it can take you all over the Magic Kingdom. It usually takes about 4 to 6 hours to complete, so you can depend on this game to keep you busy.

5. Watch the Parades/Shows 

Magic Kingdom has the Festival of Fantasy as well as several Move It, Shake It parades throughout the day. Animal Kingdom has the Festival of the Lion King and the Finding Nemo musical, both of which take about 30-40 minutes. Each park also has their closing show at the end of the day, and Happily Ever After at Magic Kingdom and Fantasmic at Hollywood Studios are particularly breathtaking.

6. Recreational Activities

There is plenty to do on WDW property outside of the parks, including fishing expeditions, golfing, spa activities, and bonfires.

7. Go resort hopping 

All of the resorts at WDW are beautiful and unique, and they're all worth taking the time to see. The Grand Floridian, the Polynesian, and the Boardwalk Resort are my favorites!

8. People watch 

There are a variety of places on the property to sit and people watch. Maybe you'll see a proposal or somebody in a great costume while they Disney Bound!

9. Run a marathon

WDW offers several marathons throughout the year, and they're all themed for different Disney genres (the princesses, Star Wars, etc). You can wear your medal around the parks all day, and some stores and restaurants even offer discounts to marathon runners!

10. Go to meet And greets 

Meet And Greet lines can be even longer than some rides, so taking the time to dedicate to meeting all of your favorite characters is a good idea! Don't forget your autograph book!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
