Hi friends,
Our family is planning our first ever trip to DL next month and we're so excited. I'm used to planning our WDW trips down to the hour but for some reason I'm just totally stymied as to what to do at DL??
It will be me, DH, DS (4) and our baby girl who will be turning one while we're there! We get into LAX at noon on Thursday the 15th and we'll be renting a car and driving to the Grand Californian.
This is where I get confused. Should we go to DCA or DL? We'll be there Thursday afternoon, Friday and Saturday and driving to Phoenix Sunday morning.
Our main goal for the trip is to let DS play as much as he wants in Carsland and like everyone else, ride RDR! Do you think that would even be possible on Thursday? Touring Guides says Thursday will be a 1 or 2, but do you thing RDR would still be an hour + wait? Also, since we have the baby we're hoping to do baby swap sp DS can ride twice. Anyone have experience with that?
Secondly, DH and I really want to do all the classics at DL: Matterhorn, Pirates, Haunted Mansion, Small World, etc. Will we be able to do everything in one full day? I wasn't planning on getting park hoppers so I'm hoping to stock to one park per day. I also very much want to see World of Color. Is it worth buying those picnic meals and getting a guaranteed seat?
Ugh. If you've read all of this, thank you! If you have any helpful hints or suggestions, thank you thank you! I'm blaming all of this indecisiveness on a bad case of mommy brain
