I was thinking about doing this on my upcoming trip. This will be our 5th trip. We are going even though my DH has a broken foot. We plan on using a wheelchair. My DH is in an aircast right now and will be for another 4 weeks or so and he can't put any weight on that foot. He complains that after a while his leg/foot gets very hot in the cast. My DD (17) has also requested a "more relaxing" trip. So, I thought that if we slept a little later, spent some time in the pool, etc. and then go to the park around 5:00 or so, maybe that would be more relaxing.
But I'm afraid we wouldn't get too much done. We have a breakfast at CP schedule for one of the mornings. We have late (8:00) dinner at CRT on another day. We will be there 8/23 - 8/28. Staying on-site. We are a family of 5 (me, DH, DD (17) , DS (13), and DS (15). I'm concerned that all of the fast passes will be gone and we will have longer waits on the rides and I also don't know if I can sit in a Disney hotel and think about everyone else who is at the park when I'm not! LOL!
On previous trips we have gotten to the parks 30 minutes before opening and have done the rope drops. We have done the dad and kids make a dash for Space Mountain while mom (the chicken of the group) does a speed walk to the splash mountain fast pass machine and all the other craziness to get on attractions with little wait times. I guess the good thing this time is the kids are older and if they want to, they can go to the park without us. My DH has said we can go to the park without him, but I would feel bad about doing that.
So do you think we could still enjoy the parks this
