Hi Everyone. This is a very last minute post, but then again so has my whole booking of this trip. I own a small business and it's very tough to plan months ahead of time. I booked my WDW vacation the beginning of July and will be in WDW from Aug 1st until Aug 7th.

For all you experienced visitors to DW how does my itinerary look to all of you.

We will be arriving at Orlando at 10:45am. From there we will get to our resort which will be the Wilderness Lodge. We will register and then head right to the Magic Kingdom.

Aug 1st. arrival date, planning on getting to the park early afternoon and staying until around 7:00. Head back to the resort get a change of clothes and head to our 8:30 seating for Narcoosee's. Afterwards head back to the MK and stay as late as we can before passing out. The park will have the extended hours on the 1st.

Aug 2nd. Quick snack breakfast. Head back to the MK. Eat an early lunch hit the park again. Then in the afternoon crash at the hotel and pool. Then later back to the MK dinner at 7:55 at the Liberty tree.

Aug 3rd. Quick snack breakfast. Head to Epcot. Eat an early lunch there leave in early afternoon. Again hotel and pool. Then back to Epcot dinner at 7:55 at the princess dinner at the Akershus Dining Hall. Epcot is also open 1 hour earlier on this day.

Aug 4th. Quick snack breakfast. Then over to the Animal Kingdom Park. Have an early lunch. Come back to the resort later that day. Dinner at 5:10 at the Whispering Canyon. Then back to the Animal Kingdom. AGain an extra 3 hours that evening.

Aug 5th. Quick snack breakfast. Then over to the Hollywood Studios. Early lunch. Back to the resort and pool mid afternoon. Then back to the Hollywood Studios for the evening. Dinner at the Prime Time Diner at 4:35.

Aug 6th. Quick snack breakfast. Rental car reserved for this one day. Head out of Disney World and let my daughter experience an ocean beach that she so wants to do.

How does this plan look. I have made no call ahead seating for lunch and plan on them only being counter. All our dinner plans are call ahead and we are also on the Dining Plan.
 
Looks great to me. On those days where the EMH is in the morning, make sure you get there during the extra hour, we goofed and got there late and it got too crowded.

Have a wonderful trip!
 
Looks good. On your Animal Kingdom Day, you may be worn out, but sometimes Animal Kingdom really clears out and it is worth it to go the extra hours.

Early mornings are great. I would rather do those, than late nites. More people do the extra hours at nite and the parks get actually more busy.
 
I forgot to mention, we did the EMH in the evening at AMK and really got a lot done. Plus, it was so much nicer at dark, not near as hot as a normal day.
