Transportation WWYD?

I seem to screw up our travel plans every time we try to get from one resort to another. I always choose the wrong place to go to change busses. We have to go from Pop Century to WCC for dinner. My plan right now is to take a bus from PC to MK (seems closest to WL) and then a bus from MK to WL. How would you get there? Thanks for any secret modes of transportation you can share with me.

From Pop to WL take a bus to MK then take the boat to WL. Reverse for the return trip if MK is still open, if not bus to Epcot if open

Great thanks, Just one more question. Where is this boat? Is it the same one that takes you to TTC? I have never really paid attention since I didn't need it.

And thanks for the purple pants advice, last year I asked a CM at the resort how to get from ASMo to 1900 PF and they told me to go to DTD to change busses. I thought we would never get there. I vowed to be more transportation saavy this year.

If you are exiting the MK facing the lagoon you will see the monorail on your right, to your left is the big dock for the ferry that goes to the TTC(and super close to the Poly) squished in between, almost un-noticable if you aren't looking for it is a smaller dock that says 'resort launches'. The run two sizes of boats from the resorts, usually the one they run you can just roll your strollers on, but occasionally at slow times or when parks are heavily corwded and they need a lot of boats they'll also run the smaller boats that you have to fold your stroller on.


Grand Floridian is right next to the MK, that's basic geography, what was the CM thinking telling you to go that far out of your way? That was nuts. She should have told you to go to the MK and monorail over. Though the monorail still would have taken 20 min from the MK to the GF becuase of the direction it travels, and you could probably have taken the 'Walk Around the World' path in less time,

Sorry if this is redundant...haven't read the other posts. I'd take the bus from POP to the MK, and then take the boat from the MK to the WL. HTH's!
