Whether you can't afford a day at the parks, or you just want a
day off from touring the parks, here are some suggestions for things
that you can do for free at WDW. If you have anything to add to
the list, please email me.
Visit the different resorts,

Ride the monorail - ask
to ride up front in the driver's cab, & don't forget to ask
for your free co-pilot license.
Go to Downtown Disney,
you don't have to go in any of the shops, just sit back & take
in the atmosphere, look at the lego sculptures, people watch, let
the kids play in the fountains...
Go to the Fort Wilderness
campfire. Take your own marshmallows to roast over the fire, &
a blanket to sit on while you watch the film.
Go to one of the Magic
Kingdom resorts & watch the electric water pageant from the
beach.
Watch the MK fireworks
from the beach of the Grand Floridian or Polynesian, or from the
California Grill at the Contemporary.
Spend time on the beach
at one of the MK resorts, paddle your feet in the lake or relax
in a hammock.
Take the free tour at
the Wilderness Lodge, or ask for the list of hidden Mickeys, &
go on a hidden Mickey hunt.

at Fort Wilderness.
Take a boat ride from
one of the resorts - Wilderness Lodge to MK; Boardwalk to Epcot

"Take the free lobby
tour at Animal Kingdom Lodge. Very informative and fun! Plus you
get to see numerous Hidden Mickeys."
"Another freebie
in Epcot: In the futureland part, the "Ice Cave" hides free drinks.
Rather than spend the money to buy drinks, go to the Coca-Cola exhibit
of world sodas and drink your fill in the cool - just a note though,
the Aspartif drink isn't the most pleasant tasting drink on Earth."
"Walk around the
"Walk around the World" path that circles Seven Seas Lagoon. Look
at the names of the people and see if there is anyone from your
hometown or near your hometown."
"Hidden Mickey tour
at Animal Kingdom lodge will give you a free trading card if you
manage to get them all right."
"If you go to the
Animal kingdom you can do a tasting tour where you get to try some
of the reciepes made in their two main service resturants"
"People watch in
your hotel. You may be surprised at how much you see."
"The walk from Old
Key West to Downtown Disney to Saratoga Springs Resort. It's a long
walk to be sure, but it doesn't have to be undertaken all at once.
A beautiful stroll along the canal (OKW portion) and an easy walk
from DTD to SSR around the perimeter of the "lake."
"Watch the wonderful
magic peformed at Magic Masters in DTD."
"Try out the playgrounds
@ the Coronado Springs and Port Orleans."
