We have Florida Resident annual Passes for Disney World and we go over to Fort Wilderness about every 2 months. Super convenient. There are 3 bus shuttles in the Fort that run about every 10 or 15 minutes.

At the Outpost Station (at the entrance to Fort Wilderness) the Disney Buses run to all the parks and Disney Springs (old Downtown Disney). At the opposite end of the Fort is the Marina, Hoop-Dee-Do-Revue Theater, and the marina dock. At the marina dock there is a boat (water taxi) that goes to the entrance to Magic Kingdom. There is no need for a car to travel to any of the attractions in the entire acreage of Disney World. The Disney buses and Monorail will take you to anywhere on the Disney property.

Be sure to do Breakfast and one Dinner in the Trails End Restaurant down near the marina in the Fort. The food is great.

Hollywood Studio has a new Star Wars Galactic fireworks that is really good. The Epcot fireworks is spectacular. The Soarin' ride in Epcot was completely redone and is wonderful.

Did you get Magic Bands when you sent your reservations? It really helps to do the Fast Pass + and put them on your magic bands before you arrive. You can make 3 reservations in 1 park each day of your stay. The Fast Pass allows you to go ahead of the standby line for an attractions. The attractions for which you ought to have a fast pass are:

Rock & Roll Rollercoaster (Hollywood Studio)
Tower of Terror (Hollywood Studio)
Soarin (Epcot)
Test Track (Soarin)
Space Mountain (MK)
Thunder Mountain (MK)
Splash Mtn (MK)
Killamenjaro Safari (Animal Kingdom)
Everest Rollercoaster (Animal Kingdom)

Be sure to see the Festival of the Lion King at animal Kingdom. It is an outstanding performance. Also in May the new Pandora World of Avatar is supposed to open in Animal Kingdom. You would definitely need Fast Past for Pandora because I'm sure the crowd will be HUGE for the new attraction.

That said -- usually late May is a good time for smaller crowds at Disney World.

Enjoy!!!!
