What is your favorite thing to do in Disney World outside of the theme parks?

There are a lot of options — you can shop and dine around Disney Springs, hang out at your hotel pool, check out the unique restaurants at the Disney World hotels, take a boat out on Seven Seas Lagoon, and so much more. These activities are great for when you just need a break from the crowds in the parks! So, let’s see how busy the parks were this past week by looking at the wait times, so that you can try and gauge if you’re going to need a break from them on your upcoming trip.
