I'm very limited with the amount of time I can spend in the park (health reasons), no children, if relevant I use a wheelchair. We are staying on site so can nip back and fourth. I was wondering if people could only spend a couple of hours in the parks, what would you do to make the most of it?

Hi Zesty

Answering your question best depends on whether you'd have just a one-off 2-hour visit, or whether you'll have a 2-hour visit 2-3 times a day for a few days?  Also it's very subjective as we all like different elements of DLP  :)

Certainly I'd recommend planning seeing the shows and parades that are on (obviously these change depending when you're there).  If you're going in the Christmas season I'd possibly just soak in the amazing festive atmosphere around the parcs, maybe meeting a couple of characters?

It also depends on which time of the year you're going. You might be surprised what you can do in just a few hours on more quiet weekdays.

Id keep returning doing one section at a time-fantasy land/ adventure land etc. If also have a slot just doing main street. But my priority would definitely be the parade as I find nothing else gets me in the Disney spirit like they do

A&S&O

Also depends on queue times - a good portion of those two hours could be taken up queuing.

Do you want to do two "big" things including queuing, or several "small" things that don't have long queues?

haVing SAID that if you have a mobility issue you should be able to get a easy access card do you don't need to queue.   ;)
