Contemporary is better if you want to talk, GF is better if you want to take the monorail.

It's moot though because they aren't even allowing Uber drivers anymore without a dining resevration. To add...you can't even drop off or pick up friends anymore unless you are either a guest or have a dining reservation as of last month.

Where are you staying? Like I said I’m happy to help. You’ve already got your trip booked so it’s probably too late to add a planner but I can help you maximize your time.

10 and 12 year old boys.
Take them in the mountains and show them amazing things. Disney is fake and overpriced! Boys at that age should be learning about the outdoors and how to become alpha males in this soft world.

I've used this site to help plan for several disney trips. you can find answers to just about anything you have questions about.

If you aren't the planning type, you will not enjoy disney. If you are the planning type you will have lots of fun.

Seriously.

Cut out the soft drinks at least a week before. Then drink water every day..you won’t catch a weather break until mid October.

I officiated football in that weather for 25 years. We followed the Tampa Bay Bucs training staff directions for hydrating.

Don’t let that screw your trip up.

You're fighting against the world. I agree with you, College World Series and a trip to Six Flags make up for it, easily. Disney is the same as the 30A sticker. Nooga and kayaking, hiking, camping, etc., would be my priority, but the decision was made years before he posted by the wife.

If you're going to Magic Kingdom, skip the fireworks at dusk and hit up the rides that you like. The wait times can be virtually zero while most everyone else is watching the fireworks.

Just got back, not as hot as I expected. Genie+ was a big help as well as fast passing Guardians and Tron. My wife and kids were able to ride the Tiana ride twice in one evening during extended park hours. Take advantage of free water everywhere and buy a Pancho.I can not think of a huge negative at all.
Also, Disney Springs was cool.
