Disney World has a Fantasia-themed miniature golf course for guests to play at. One of the company's waterparks, Blizzard Beach, also has an 18-hole course that is based on the park.

Shopping

WDW has a huge shopping area called Disney Springs. Here,guests have options of places to shop at ranging from high-end stores to retail shops filled with park merchandise.

For only $9, the Coca-Cola Experience at Disney Springs features a cool soda experience for guests. Participants can get a tray of 16 different sodas from around the world to taste test.

Smaller Rides at Disney Springs

Here guests of younger ages can enjoy a carousel and a small train ride.

Swimming

If guests are staying at a Disney property, all hotels feature a swimming pool. Depending on the resort they are staying, visitors can have access to more than one pool.

Hotel hopping

Giphy

One of my favorite things to do is to visit the multiple hotels on the property. Each location has a different feel and look to the building's design. Another interesting thing that guests may not realize is that each hotel has a different gift shop selling merchandise for each specific hotel.

Animal Kingdom Lodge

Giphy

This resort is for the animal lovers. This resort features live animals on its property. Visitors can go and experience an outdoor walking area where they can view animals ranging from Giraffes to gazelle.

The Boardwalk

When visiting The Boardwalk, guests can rent bikes, or play arcade games next to the water.

Campgrounds

Giphy

The Disney campgrounds offer many outdoor activities for guests. Here people can fish, ride horses, get archery lessons, and rent bikes.

Water Parks

Giphy

If guests do want a thrilling ride experience, but don't want to walk through the parks in the heat of summer, they can attend two of the resort water parks.

Character Dining

Giphy

Though the parks offer character dining experiences, some of the hotels on the property feature these meals as well. Located at the Contemporary resort, guests can eat breakfast at Chef Mickey's and see characters such as Mickey and Minnie Mouse.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement.
