I had planned to dress my family (husband, two school-aged daughters, toddler son and myself) in Chinese costumes this year for an annual Halloween costume party. My husband and I purchased beautiful traditional Chinese outfits for our daughters the last time we traveled abroad. We also purchased my husband a silk jacket with a mandarin collar. I was going to purchase a traditional dress. I was then going to dress my toddler boy as a little sumo wrestler. When I told some of my friends about this over lunch, they were appalled and felt that I would surely offend anyone of Chinese heritage if they were also at the party. We do have some friends will be at the party who are Chinese. Have we overstepped the boundaries? Will our friends be offended?

Our next vacation to Walt Disney World is in July for 10 days and 11 nights. We’re on the Platinum Plan and all recreation and tours are included in the package. I know there’s all kinds of recreation and stuff to do at Walt Disney World besides just going to the theme parks. There’s golf, mini golf, boat rentals, bike rentals, horseback riding, carriage/wagon rides, etc. What else do you like to do during your vacation? What’s been fun, what would you recommend or not recommend? Have you done any of the different tours at the theme parks? Any shops you love to go to while at the parks or resorts? Any restaurants or kiosks you always go to, maybe for a specific item?

I want any suggestions of things to do and things to try within Walt Disney World, not off property.

Thank you!
I’m only 19, so any place that requires you to be 21 is out of the question, I guess. And I don’t plan on leaving Disney property because I’m on the Platinum Plan and I’m only going to be there fro 11 days. It takes me minimum of two weeks to do everything I want, and I didn’t spend ,000 on our Disney Package to spend more money outside of Disney.
Yep, love Downtown Disney. I already know I’m going to be there at least one whole day. We’re having lunch at Bongos Cuban Cafe and dinner at Fulton’s Crab House, most likely, and then we’re going to see Cirque Du Soleil: La Nouba. We’re going to the Rainforest Cafe at the Animal Kingdom Park.

Anybody actually do any of the recreational activities?
