Week after T-Giving... M-1/2 Sunday

[CaptnPea]

Here is our basic plan... what do you all think and I have questions...
Us... is family of 4, kids @ 10 & 13.
Grand Floridian

My plan is to have a backpack at most times with some H2O bottles, granola type snacks, sunblock etc... take advantage of the GF

I have acess to bringing a motorcycle, lent from my dad, it might be handy for going and getting supplies and stuff, or just too much hassle, not sure? Could be good escape mechanism for the ol'man and lady to escape here and there.

Monday:
Arrive 7ish fed and ready, being dropped off by my folks whom we will be visiting earlier. Take our stuff to the GF (looked up the abbrviation list). The folks are joining us for the day at MGM.
ADR 8PM @ 50's Prime time cafe, see Osborn lights after.

Tues: Epcot, AM EMH,
Lunch in Park
ADR@8PM Kona Cafe in PR, can we walk from GF or need to grab bus?

Wen: Animal Kingdom, PM EMH
No ADR -thinking Flame Tree at AK

Th: MK AM EMH.

Fr: Make use of mulit-park, jump around, no plan. (wife in class am)
Dinner out with high school pal who lives in town (kids stay in parents out).

Sa: Make use of mulit-park, jump around, no plan. (wife in class am)

I can't help at all with the motorcycle question, sorry.

The rest of your plans either seem ok to me, or are too vague for me to comment. For example, "Th: MK AM EMH. ADR at Narcoosee's @ GF." Is this Thursday, Dec. 4th? Are you planning on only going to the Magic Kingdom and that's all? What time is your reservation at Narcoosee's? What time does the park close?

Friday and Saturday, you say you have no plan, and intend to "jump around". That sounds ok to me. A lot of people go to the park with the extra magic hour in the morning, and then hop to another park if and when that park gets crowded.

You will be able to take the monorail from GF to the Polynesian.

I'll make a few observations.

Mon--Studios closes at 8 p.m. Depending on how long your dinner takes (I'm surprised they take a reservation at closing, but looks like they did), you may not be able to see the lights afterward.

It looks like you're planning on taking advantage of all the EMHs, but you obviously have hoppers (last two days plans), so you can hop to another park if it gets too crowded.

You won't need the motorcycle unless you think you will want to go off-site at some time. You can get everywhere you need to by monorail and bus.

You have an ADR at the Plaza on Saturday. That is parade taping day and main street will be mobbed. It will also be difficult getting past it to your ADR, so make sure you give yourself lots of time to get there from wherever you are before it.

You don't mention attending MVMCP, so you may want to be at MK either Wed night or Sat night to see Spectro and Wishes as there are parties on all the other nights.

That's it for my observations.

For thursday I would plan on hopping by the afternoon away from MK so you avoid the parade taping crowds (which are released at 2).

as mentioned by PP, check out MVMCP if you can.

Now that is some love.... will sit down with the "boss" (wifey) tonight and go over your comments...

Thanks WDW pro's...

edit to answer questions:

Oh dinner reservations we have are all at 8PM...

Our passes are park hoppers.

Since wife is not in class the first three days, M/T/W we intened on sticking to the parks for pretty much full days then, especially Monday at MGM as my folks are joining us and buying a pass for just there. Other days kids and I may hit big attractions early head back to the GF for swimming/tennis... and such, then maybe back to parks for a little with mom after she is done with her class.

good luck with the boss!
