Just spending my evening thinking about my plans for this up coming trip! Here is what I have planned so far!
Wednesday Dec 14th- Arrival Day
We are supposed to arrive at MCO at 12:15pm. Taking Magical Express to our resort and hopefully checking into our room! Plan on either that or dropping off our carry on bags and head to MK for that evening. Looks like there are EMH that night, so excited to hit our first park on arrival day! Just do QS meals and snacks the first day.
Thursday Dec 15th-
MK- this is a party night, so only open until 7pm, but then either going to resort hop and look at all the Christmas decorations or head down to Disney Springs. Really leaning toward resort hopping. We have a PPO at BOG at 8:30am and then a Chef Mickey's at 1:50pm. Trying to get Chef Mickey's a little later, but so far this has been the only reservation I have been able to snag.
Friday Dec 16th-
Hollywood Studios! This is also a day that has EMH, so I am expecting bigger crowds, but with just the 2 of us, I think we can handle it better than if we had the whole family. Right now we have a Hollywood and Vine dinner at 6:25pm. Thought this would be a good time to breathe and then finish the night off with the longer hours. Hoping for Star Wars fireworks as my son is a huge Star Wars fan and we didn't get back to see the whole show this past July. ( We could see the high fireworks from our balcony at Boardwalk Villa's).
Saturday Dec 17th-
Animal Kingdom! Morning EMH starting at 8am, so we are hoping to hit the park right at 8 and get a few rides in before our ADR at Tusker House at 9:20. We have been to Disney 2 times and have never been to AK, so this is going to be a new experience for us. And like everyone else we are waiting to see if ROL is up and running at this time!
Sunday Dec 18th-
BIRTHDAY DAY!!!! As we have been planning our "family trip" for next year, he has said he wants Garden Grill for his birthday breakfast. We had a PPO ADR this past July and it was the best ADR we had! I was able to get us another PPO and will spend our day at EP before heading over to MK for
MVMCP. We may take a little mid day break at this time also, so we can go full force at the party. We do have a BOG reservation for 8:40pm, but I am really trying hard to find an earlier time, as this was also one of his favorite ADR's from this summer. If I am able to snag a Desert Party reservation I will cancel BOG since we have a PPO ressie at the beginning of our trip. Lots of what ifs at this time!
Monday December 19th-
Epcot Day! This day I plan on sleeping in a little bit and then heading over to Epcot for the rest of the day. I have a CPP at Coral Reef at 4:30pm for the 8:15pm show. This one is for me! I so excited to see this, and right now Joe Morton is the scheduled celebrity. (So excited!) As this is our last park day, I am planning on taking our time and snacking around the world!
Tuesday December 20th-
Departure Day! We have a later flight so decided that we are going to sleep in and take our time to relax and then hit resort check in before exploring the rest of the resort or just chilling by the pool. I am debating adding another park day, but I feel that I am running us pretty hard the whole week and we have to go back to work and school the next day that taking it easy may be the best thing.
So these are the basic plans that I have. Now have to plan FP and decide what we want to hit. My DS is a trill rider so we are definitely hitting all the roller coasters and other fun rides that we don't always do when his old sister is with us. Hoping that we are going to be able to have a fun and exciting week!
