I think I'm going to call today to get 'official' park times, and again later in the week once the brochures go to print.

www.disney.com and www.wdwinfo.com list conflicting 'official' park hours.

Anyway, after the parks do close, there are still fun things you can do.

Disneyquest in Downtown Disney Westside is a giant, 5 floor arcade. It's about $30/ea. to get in, and then everything but the food is free.

Fantasia Gardens/Winter Summerland are two miniature golf course. The first is located outside the Walt Disney World Swan, while the second is at Blizzard Beach. I'm not sure of their operating hours, but I'd imagine that, if it's daylight, they'll be open.

Stormalong Bay is the pool at Disney's Yacht and Beach Club hotels. . . while pool hopping of Disney resort guests isn't really allowed, they'll almost never stop you. Stormalong Bay might as well be a free waterpark, because it's huge.

The monorail is just fun to ride around.

Outside of Disney property, there are some other things.

Old Town has a few portable carnival rides, a Windstorm roller coaster, and the world's tallest SkyCoaster. The SkyCoaster, though, is expensive, at about $35/ea. for a ride.

Congo River Golf on International Drive has Katanga, which is also kind of expensive, but very cool.

There's lots more, I'm sure, but I'm drawing a blank just now.

If I think of other things, I'll amend this post to reflect that
