Disney To-Do List: The Top 20 Things You Must Do Before You Go on Your Disney World Vacation

10. Research parts of the parks with which you are unfamiliar.

If you’ve never been to the parks at Walt Disney World, not only are you in for an amazing time, but you’re also in for an overwhelming feeling if you don’t do some of your research before you ever leave home. That’s because it is a really big place with endless opportunities for making the Magic very personal for your family. If you have been to the parks, but it’s been a while since your last trip, you’ll also do well to research new things in the parks. Sites like www.disneyfanatic.com and www.howtodisney.com are both interesting and informative and will guide you in all things related to the parks and making the most of your trip. Hit your local bookstore and pick up a copy of the most recent edition of Walt Disney World by Stephen Birnbaum, more often referred to as “Birnbaum’s Disney World book.”
