What's Your Favorite Non-Park Activity?

WHen you're not at the Parks - what's your favorite thing to do at Disney? Do you hit DTD for some shopping? Play a little golf? Spend the day at a waterpark? Go hotel hopping?

Which "other" areas do you have the most fun in?

I like DisneyQuest and waterparks. Mini golf was fun the one time I did it.

We always do DTD at least once per trip and maybe some resort hopping and shopping at the other gift shops. Animal Kingdom Lodge has a nice gift store. Love BouTiki at the Poly has some great stuff. The Contemporary store are nice too.

We resort hop, usually hitting monorail resorts & WL. We visit DTD at least once. Hitting up the Christmas store is a must and we always buy something for the house for the holidays! (Since hubby is home this Christmas, I get to show off my Disney decor on here! clapping ) We may visit a water park too, depending on what time of year.

We ventured into Disney Quest in May 2012. We didn't realize it was included in our tickets we purchased. I actually had a pretty good time. It was kinda overwhelming with so many floors of games..we got lost several times. I don't know if I would actually pay separately to go in though. I am not a huge gamer though...

Taking photos at the resorts (see profile photo). Some of them have really amazing props, and the themes at all of them are so well done!

Eating, playing video games at Disneyquest because it brings back so many great childhood memories of me playing the arcade games when I attended my friends birthday parties as a kid and leisure walking (You'll definitely want to do more of that than anywhere else!)

I love shopping at DTD and the official outlet stores. I got a good portion of my Christmas shopping done in June!
