My advice is to take one of those days and do Islands of Adventure/Universal Studios Florida. They have a one-day park hopper available.

I've been twice to WDW -- at age 12 in 1989, and then again in 2006. While I liked the Disney parks, I was actually WAY more impressed with IoA/USF when I did that in 2006. In fact, when I go on the Disney cruise in May (from Florida to Los Angeles), I'm arriving one day early to Florida specifically to do IoA/USF, and skipping all of the Disney parks.

Spiderman (even the most jaded theme parker with us went HOLY SH*T after going on that ride), Men In Black (makes Buzz Lightyear look like something a 2nd grader did), The Mummy (the good version, not the Hollywood crap version), Dueling Dragons (yes, the themed line is jaw-dropping), Dudley Do-Right, and a lovely meal at Mythos (a beautifully themed sit down restaurant in IoA.... all of IoA is VERY VERY well themed) -- totally worth spending a day for.
