My dh and I are going to wdw in October and this will be the first time in 7 years that just he and I have gone by ourselfs. I am the fanatic in the family and he would just assume go somewhere else but he goes when I really want hime to so when I asked to go for our anniversary he aggreed. I am trying to think of something nice to do for him. They only thing is he has anxiety and doesn't like attention on him so I don't know what we could do that isn't going to cost alot of money. Any ideas because I just use to planning princess stuff b/c of dd. Thanks in advance.

How about doing a tour together??

[oldmom]

a tour would be good or would he enjoy dining with an imagineer? does he like to fish? a resturant he would really love? what are his favorite things to do?

[disneynut98]

He doens't like to fish at all. We have looked at all the resturants and the menu's and he just didn't see any where he really wanted to do. We loved Italy but they changed their menu and he really did like it. We tossed around some ideas of tours and he decided he didn't want to do one. He says I schedule too much when we go but I would like to do something nice even if it's just something small.

A shirt that says he is a wonderful husband ? Maybe a certificate for an afternoon/evening/morning to do whatever he wants?

What about the fireworks cruise? My dh would LOVE that. We did the Keys to the Kingdom tour on our honeymoon and loved it! dh is an engineer and going backstage was really cool for him to see how stuff works I don't suppose yours would like to have lunch with an Imagineer?

Our favorite thing to do is stay really late during emh hours at MK and walk up and down mainstreet with practically no other people. It's like owning the place for a while-- having it all to yourself

Make sure to stop by the ESPN on the boardwalk, maybe do like the cirque du soliel show... maybe something like that?

We are going to the ESPN club for sure one day.

Here are some ideas for things to do that are free - plan to spend some time wandering around World Showcase, browsing the countries, head out of International Gateway and wander around the BoardWalk, visit the various resorts there. At the Magic Kingdom, head for the Polynesian beach and watch Wishes and the Electric Water Pageant from there.

As far as the other ideas go that cost money, I like the idea of a tour - or maybe rent a boat for half an hour or so? We did that from Downtown Disney and went up past Saratoga Springs and up to Port Orleans. It was very relaxing and reasonably priced.

What about just a nice quiet carriage ride around one of the resorts? It would be something for just the two of you. Noone to make a big deal about it and cause your DH any extra anxiety.

My DH and I, after dinner at the GF, went on a walk at sunset around the seven seas lagoon. The walkway between the Poly and GF is great for a walk, it was nice to be alone after being in the crowds all day and the sunset was beautiful.

Are you staying on the property? Maybe you could have room service deliver a nice dessert and/or some champagne to your room? That shouldn't be too expensive and it would be very private. In fact, when you check-in be sure to mention it's your honeymoon; you might get a nice surprise in your room! Or, just have a day when you haven't planned anything. Make it a leisurely day; whether at a park, or Downtown Disney, and just enjoy the magic and beauty of WDW and the gift of being with each other.
Enjoy your trip

Just read that you can do a cruise during the daytime (less expensive and not as hard to book) as the fireworks cruises

IllumiNations Cruises

Specialty Cruises

There is also the Richard Petty Driving Experience - the ride along is $100 , don't know if your DH's anxiety would stop him from enjoying circling the track in a professional race car.

When we snuck away we did Keys to the Kingdom. It was really nice, the description didn't do it justice. We also just walked thru World Showcase and stopped for a drink here and there. Not something you can do with kids around! If he doesn't like attention, you should plan something for your room. Room service dinner with champagne, or something similar. Maybe a spa treatment? massage for two?
