We've got a little less than 3 weeks to go and I'm finally planning our park days! My question is about HS & Epcot (specifically World Showcase). Our group has a rather timid and *tiny* 4yo & a rowdy 2yo who is NOT the patient, movie-watching type. We have 4 days to spend in the parks, and I'm thinking of only planning a 1/2 day at Epcot & a 1/2 day at HS, with the extra time spent at MK. No one's into thrill rides (except my hopelessly short 5yo dd & me lol) so we'll be skipping basically everything that the whole family can't ride (with the exception of Star Tours for DH & 10yo DS).
It's been a long time since we've been, but DH really didn't care for World Showcase at Epcot last time, and I'm pretty sure the 10yo will vote to skip it too. We definitely want to do Future World, however we'll be skipping Mission Mars & Test Track. Is there any major reason to not skip WS? The 2yo won't sit through the movies, and we're not really into the dining/shopping either.
Becuase of the "no thrill rides" rule, we'll be skipping ToT, RRC, the Great Movie Ride (if I'm remembering correctly, the Alien scene will terrify my 4yo) & Soarin at HS. Dad & the 10yo MUST do Star Tours though! lol Is there any reason we couldn't do this in 1/2 a day? We'll be going mid-week, so hopefully not too many crowds.
I know MK is going to be the biggest draw for all of us. We'll be skipping the mountains, but will probably do most everything else. I really want to make sure the kids get to do & see as much as possible. I was thinking we would spend 1 whole day at MK, then spend 1/2 of Tues at Epcot & the other 1/2 at MK, 1/2 of Weds at HS & 1/2 & MK, all day at AK Thurs (they close @ 5pm) and back to Epcot for Illuminations that night. Does all that sound do-able...or insane?? lol
This will be our very 1st vacation w/all 4 kids, so it's gonna be a learning experience. Hopefully a good one!
