Default What do you have left on your WDW 'to do' list

This will be my 12th or so trip to WDW (2nd DVC) and I still have a fair few 'to do's' which I'm trying to spread out over all my future trips.

Last year ticked off Dole Whip and watching the fireworks from the Poly beach and visiting Wilderness Lodge

Still to do....I've yet to...

1) Stay at a monorail resort (so I guess BLT or GF in future)
2) A tour (might to KTTW this trip)
3) Using photopass
4) Eaten at CG
5) Visited a DVC resort outside WDW
6) Taken family along who have never visited (I'd like to take my ILs. I think it would blow their minds!)
7) Done a dinner show
8) Had breakfast at Kona Cafe
9) Used the Deluxe DDP
10) Stayed in something bigger than a studio
11) Pool-hopped!
12) Gone to the F+W Festival

As far as things we have never done, last summer on our longer than usual stay we managed to cross off a great deal, thanks to our new found ownership at BLT.
This year's list includes more that we are going to check off in July:
Pirates and Pals Cruise
Lunch with Chef Remy at Chefs de France
Breakfast at 1900 Park Fare with Mary Poppins and The Mad Hatter and Alice

I would still like to bring myself to try Mission Space, if I absolutely knew I would not become completely ill from the experience.
Trying out Tom Sawyer Island, and The Riverboat at MK.
Getting my son on Kali River Rapids, he has a phobia of water rides. I know once he gets on it, he will love it.
The Keys to the Kingdom tour, although I am torn about it. I am afraid it will ruin the "magic" for me.
Trying at all of the DVC resorts at least once.

As silly as it sounds we have never seen the Nemo Show and we keep hearing how great it is...been there more times than I can count, I do "Wine with Walt" events to help moms/dads plans trips, have a big Facebook group, and answer tons of questions on everything Disney related...and I have not seen that show yet. It is on our list for sure!

We hadn't seen the Nemo show for years either, and we finally checked it off our list. It's worth it!

In Nov. we checked off, "stay at the VWL during the Christmas season" and that was WAYYYYYYYYYYY worth it.

Some of the things on our list are embarassing, but trips are busy. Ya know?:

Disney cruise
See Fantasmic from a seat (we were standing in the back, couldn't see it!)
stay at every WDW DVC
DL
stay in a Treehouse
conquer Mt. Everest
see the Beauty and the Beast show at DHS
see all those Epcot country movies (is that even worth it? )
