Hi guys!
I am like 99% there with my plans and reservations- I just need some final feedback before I stop planning. After much deliberation and having like 5 different ways we could go about this disney trip- this seems to make the most sense in having the most WOW factor for us. WOW factor and experiences are a biggie for us.
We're going to do a 3 resort split stay (we're both young and quick moving 26 year olds- so this doesn't intimidate us- famous last words... ) and do the regular dining plan for the 5 middle days of the trip. We like the dining plan for the ease of it. So basically night 1 is Wilderness Lodge (my personal favorite resort that I've never gotten to try out) with no dining plan, nights 2-6 are Caribbean Beach with the dining plan, and night 7 is Beach Club (his favorite resort) and no dining plan. That means I had to really arrange this perfectly to make it all work dining plan wise.
Here's our schedule:
Tuesday February 26th
Check into Wilderness Lodge
OOP lunch at Roaring Forks (20.00)
Pick up KTTW tickets at MK
Catch evening shows at MK
OOP dinner at Artist Point (110.00)

Tuesday March 5th
Check out of Beach Club

A couple questions:
1. We check out of CBR (the resort our dining plan is attached to) on Monday March 4th. We're heading to Beach Club that night but will be spending the time in between check out and check in at Epcot. Can we still use our QS credit? Yes right?
2. When we check out of Beach Club on our last day- Tuesday March 5th- we have a lot of time before our flight. We're going to do a few hours at MK and then want to hang out at the Beach Club pool. Even tho we are technically checked out- they will let us hang out for awhile right- while we wait for our bus to MCO?
3. Do you think I've chosen the right places to use credits for and the right places to pay OOP? Would you switch anything?
4. Finally- hows the overall restaurant line up look?! I'm finally pretty happy with it- hah! (Ps. Obviously at Epcot we don't have to eat at those specific QS places. Those are just suggestions )
Thank you thank you thank you! We are so pumped- I hope this itinerary "checks out" as good so I can finally end the planning process! (As boring as my life will become without disney planning!)
