I'm in
the same boat
I had a talk with one of my sons last night and expressed my concerns regarding my stamina due to back/ leg problems.
I'm currently 1/2 time at work till Jan when the doctor will reassess the situation.
I may be a candidate for a scooter this year and getting my head around that is hard.
What I really need is a guaranteed place to sit and rest .
My plans are not set in stone and will probably change ..............................
Day 1 -Unpack and CHILL at resort upon arrival and maybe an evening visit to Disney Springs. I have a small bottle of rum I picked up while airmiling and plan to have a few drinks by the pool,,which is something I never took time to do in the past.
We are staying at OKW Resort.
Day 2 -SLEEP in and late brunch at Disney springs and maybe a dine in movie/Shop.
Day 3 -- get up EARLY as we going to Uber it over to Royal Pacific Resort.
check out U/O with early admittance and front of the line pass.
This was a BIG expense but will make my trip more doable if you know what i mean.
Be back at the resort in time for evening snacks because I booked club level.
Day 4 ---- EARLY admittance to U/O and maybe lunch at the three broomsticks.
I am going to take it one step at a time.OR
Day 5 ----- SLEEP in and chill at the resort/Pool day.
I may look into a pedicure at Saratoga Springs Resort.
Day 6------ By myself (sons are not interested) Epcot Flower and Garden Festival.
I have learned to utilize FP+ and use the boat service around the World Showcase.
I am usually done by 1pm,,(physically) and will head back to the resort for an early evening.
I have no interest in seeing the fireworks as I've seen them a million times.
Day 7 -------- Our departure/flight time is late evening so I am going to SLEEP in and then
head to Disney Springs for some last minute shopping.
This year I am planning Chill/Relax days and do not feel the need each visit to do the Parks.
Last year with my granddaughter we were go! go! go! in every Park and I was miserable by the end of the trip.
My biggest complaint is the lack of places to sit for a break at Disney Parks,,maybe this is because I now have the need for
taking frequent breaks. (Bring back the benches Disney!!!).
There are many more rides that I can no longer do,, due to my back/leg problems.
Some of Disney's rides are definitely old and in need of upgrading.
I also am a big fan of Dessert Parties as I am usually looking for seating.
Lots of Magic is still there for me but just in a different way.
Hugs to you
