I think we can do it! I was at MK from around 11:00 to 2:30 and I did all the mountains. I got a FP for Space Mt. and I waited in the 30 minute BTMRR line. While I waited to get a Splash Mt. FP, I went on Pirates of the Caribbean. Then I got a Splash FP and rode Space Mt. After riding TTA and watching the Country Bears, I did Splash Mt. and was done by around 2:15.
I think it is doable, but we may have to ride things in the area that have short waits while we wait for FP windows. There was no way I was going to wait 45 minutes for Space and 60 minutes for Splash! :)

Barry, do you think that we could do this 12- 2 or 3 ish on Friday after the Buzz and Fantasyland meets? That might be most convenient.

Barry, also, isn't Sunday the new "Magic Extra Hour" day at MK? Did you notice it extra crowded because of that?

MK was pretty packed! It was a sea of people and kids.
One funny thing: in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, the right side line was all the way out to the door. The left side, however, had no line. The line seemed open, but there was no CM in front to ask. So I went down the left side and walked through an empty queue. I was on in about 2 minutes! The other side was packed with people.
I suppose the other side had a bunch of cattle. :)
Keep in mind that the GF Tea is now on Friday. Don't know how that will affect your plans. :)

Barb, do you think we could get folks thru and to the 3:15 seating that wanted to do Mountains?

What time are you planning on starting? I can't imagine you not getting through if you start in the morning. Or are you planning on starting after the Fantasyland/Buzz Lightyear Shoot Off/Dole Whip meets? You might be able to fit it in. I'll reread Barry's post about how long it took.
