Disney Bucket List

[rachel09985]

What is everyone's bucket list/ to do list at WDW or involving anything Disney? Whether it be time or money being the reason you can't do now?

Mine is
Deluxe Dining Plan
Water Parks- seem to never have enough time to do that
Beach Club- Dream Resort
Move to Orlando to Work is my ultimate to do!
Signature Meal- still have not done that
Disney Wedding- another ultimate dream!

I need a better paying job...

 

[Ashlander]

Definitely moving to Orlando and have at least one of my children get married there

 

[PoohsFan1]

My bucket list is:

- Go on the KTTK Tour
- Stay at every resort at least once (doing a really good job at getting that accomplished )
- Dine at every eating establishment at least once (for B,L,and D)(again doing a really good job at getting that accomplished)
- Go on the Segway Tour
- Go on the Steam Engine Tour
- Buy a house in either Celebration FL or if I ever become a millionaire, then buy a home in the new Golden Oaks community
- Work at WDW when I and DH retires
- Go see La Nouba
- Go on both a Wishes and Illuminations Cruises


- Not WDW, but go on a Disney Cruise to anywhere on any of the ships
- Go to Disneyland
- Stay at Aulani in Hawaii

I was married at Disney, great experience....I expect my daughter will want the same since she has the same Disney Obsession my wife and I have.

As for things I want to do....

Stay at all the resorts...I still need to stay at Animal Kingdom, Polynesian, Old Key West, the new Art and Animation and a few others.

Visit Disneyland....I live in FL so WDW is always the choice, but I still want to see the original.

4 parks one day....I'll wait until the kids are older, but I want to be a true park hopper.

MNSSHP...I'll most likely cross this off next year...

This is so funny. I too dream of retiring and then working at Disney. Is this realistic? Does anyone know of anyone who has done this? I am 100% serious and already told my husband that this is what I dream of as my retirement. He thinks I am crazy!

Current Bucket List items:

4. Visit the Walt Disney museum in SF.

Cool I did not know this existed. I will put this item on my California trip must do list

 

[revdon64]

Hmmmm:

Take any or all of the behind the scenes tours (my kiddos are too little yet, so...)
Stay in any of the Deluxe resorts
Segway tour

I could probably think of lots more, but my list is mostly modest stuff as we haven't been there enough times to have done a whole lot.

Not sure if I could do the DDP for a week, but would definitely like to try it for a long weekend.

Disney Bucket List:
1. Move to FL, thus eliminating the plane ride to go to WDW (currently exploring this, though I would never move to FL solely for WDW - we do have family there)
2. Take KTTK Tour (doing this in Sept.)
3. Ride RnR
4. Visit DL (thinking of doing this in 2014)
5. Dine at a Signature restaurant
6. Stay at a Deluxe resort
7. Visit every resort to take in each one's unique decor and atmosphere
8. Take a behind-the-scenes tour at each park
9. Play a round of mini-golf
10. Take in Wishes from the Poly beach

Completed Bucket List:
1. Rode Space Mountain - didn't die and actually was smiling in photo
2. Stayed on-site - will be our second time this Sept.
3. Stay in a Moderate (will complete this trip)
4. Rode ToT - not smiling, but can say I did it
5. Saw La Nouba


My Bucket List items are pretty simple.

 

[kdl121]

I'm only a teenager, so I have plenty of time to complete some of these items (however, money may be an issue ... you never know).

Bucket List

These are things off the top of my head!

- Do a wine tasting in California Adventure
- Go on a Disney Cruise
- Go to one of the theme parks for Christmas

- Visit Disney World for the first time

Guilty-Pleasure Bucket List

It doesn't have to happen, but it would be totally cool!

- Get engaged at one of the theme parks
- Get married at one of the theme parks

Bucket List Items Which Will Be Completed Soon

... hopefully!

- Get a picture with Ariel
- Ride in a gondola at Tokyo Disney Sea
- Visit Tokyo Disneyland for the first time

I should easily be able to ride everything I want to on my trip, but I guess my sole wish would be to come with the whole family later on down the track and stay at the contemporary.

This borders on masochism but I'd like to do the Christmas/NewYear week. In 2005 we arrived on New Years Day but didn't do anything 'Disney' until the PM when we hit PI for the Comedy Warehouse and Adventurer's Club. By Jan. 3 WDW was a ghost town so we really didn't get the crowds or seasonal feeling, actually, we were glad when they took the decorations down as we'd had our fill of holiday joy.

This is actually do-able as my university closes from X-Mas Eve until the day after NY Day, but the horror stories we read here about insane crowds and parks closing by noon, this will probably still be on my Bucket List the day I kick the bucket.

Odd that you should ask - I've been thinking obsessively about my Disney bucket list recently. And I actually intend to make as much of it come true as possible in 2013. I was diagnosed with cancer in February of this year and had to cancel our annual September trip. But the surgeries, chemo and radiation should be finished by the end of this year. And I intend to celebrate, CANCER-FREE, at Disney as soon as possible. I had originally planned to do it in December 2013, but I don't know if I can wait that long. So I'm looking at January or February 2013 instead. So here goes the bucket list:
1. Deluxe resort - club level (I've decided on AKL)
2. Wild Africa Trek or Sunset Safari (maybe both)
3. Spirit of Aloha (in all my trips, we've never done this)
4. Disney Quest (again, we've never done this)
I'm sure I'll think of more!!!!

I want to stay at least one night in every WDW hotel and I want to visit every Disney park around the world. We didn’t want to get married there, but we do want to renew our vows there when we hit 10 years.

I haven’t even seen every WDW hotel so on our next trip DH and I are going to pool bar hop (not all one day – spread throughout the trip) just so we can say we have seen a little of each hotel and to be able to say we visited each hotel in one trip.
