[QUOTE="JoeBlank, post: 2429612, member: 1806"] One word (I think it is one word) of advice: FastPass. The greatest innovation at WDW, and other theme parks, is the FastPass. Your "ticket" is like a little credit card. You go up to a ride with a long line and insert your card, and it spits out an little paper ticket with a time range on it. Return during that time frame and you get to use the FastPass line, which pretty much puts you at the front of the line. By far the worst part about WDW has always been wasting your vacation time standing in line. Don't do it. Use the FastPass. The only have it on the most popular rides, but those are the ones likely to have long lines. Just took my sons, ages 7, 5 and 3, a couple months ago, and we had a blast. Other advice: 1. Don't fall into the scheduling trap. Tour books and such encourage you to run your WDW vacation like a well-oiled machine, get the this by 9 a.m., move on the this area before lunch, etc. I have enough of a schedule and deadlines at work, I don't need them on vacation. Just go with the flow. You can't do everything in one trip anyway. 2. But still pick out a few must-see attractions, so you won't regret missing them. 3. Let your son do the character autograph thing. I don't know why, but kids love this. You buy a little autograph book, and then keep an eye out for the characters to sign the book. Lines are usually not bad, and you end up with pictures of your kid meeting all his favorite Disney characters. One of ours is still talking about being kissed by Sleeping Beauty. I didn't think we would ever get him to wash his face again. 4. Have Fun! [/QUOTE]
