Some times you'll be walking through a country and get mesmerized by something you didn't plan for - like the balancing waiters in France or the lady "statue" in Italy or the acrobats in China. WS is my favourite part of WDW and we've been dozen of times. I can honestly say I've never seen all the things you plan to see in one day - especially if you're making a stop at each Kidcot. So my advice is to tour World Showcase with a more "European" relaxed state of mind. Stroll along. Enjoy what you do discover and savour the unexpected. Last year in Morocco while my daughter bought a little book about "Habibi" a camel who wanted to wear slippers, the young clerk in the bazaar told us "Habibi" means "my love", and he went on to tell us a wonderful Moroccan folk tale. That was one of my fondest moments of our last trip.

Also - just a warning - while the "snacking" is a great idea - it's amazing how much money you can spend doing this. Choose wisely.

I'm sorry - I don't mean to rain on your parade, I just don't want you to be disappointed if your itinerary doesn't run like clockwork - but that will be a good thing. The unexpected moments are always the best.

No no I DO appreciate the advice and feedback. I mean a lot of you guys are more seasoned than me, so that's why I post this. I wanna hear the good AND the bad...


I'm not going to spend more than $4 for a snack first of all, that's my budget. And I'm only going to buy one in each country, and probably pslit it since my palette isn't all that "cultured".. I'll probably not like a lot of the stuff, because I'm a big junk food addict :

Now I'm sure I'll spend most of my time in the World Showcase. I figure from 11 am right on through 6 or 7 pm. I figure by the time I'm done, anything I missed in Future World, by that point I can go back and do (and pawn my youngest off on one of the other adults by that point). I think 6 hours is about what I'll spend in WS :)
