It's raining! Now what?

Florida summers are known for their afternoon rain showers.  So, what do you do when it's raining during your Disney vacation?  Here are my top 5 rainy afternoon ideas:

1. Take a nap.  This one takes my #1 spot, because my family likes midday breaks, anyway.  As soon as you see those dark clouds coming in, hop on the bus back to your Disney resort.  When you wake up, the rain will be gone, and you will be well rested, and ready to tackle the next park.

2. Grab a bite to eat.  Most rain showers, especially during the summer, don't last very long.  Take the opportunity to enjoy some amazing Disney food!

3. See a show.  There are indoor shows at all four Disney parks.  Some of these shows are ones a lot of people tend to skip.  Why not take the opportunity to check them out.

4. Go on the "water" rides!! If you're going to get rained on, you might as well just go all in!  Go on Kali River Rapids if you're in Animal Kingdom, or take a ride on Splash Mountain in the Magic Kingdom.

5. Tough it out.  While everyone else is running for shelter, grab your poncho and keep on enjoying your day!  There's still plenty to do, even in the rain.  After all, a rainy day in Disney is better than a good day at home, right?
