1st timer - is this too much?

[StephMK]

Hi, I'm having so much fun reading everything here & planning our trip! Our kids are 10, 4 & 2 & we're staying offsite in a timeshare. This is my tentative plan but would love any/all suggestions on changes. Unless PS, breakfast will be in the room. Avoiding the nice sit downs as little Dks are not patient.

Sat 10/30- arrive 8 pm
Sun - PS at CM, MNSSHP (yes, have tics already!)
Mon - SW, eat offsite or counters that day, early night/dinner at condo
Tues - MGM - lunch or dinner at Sci-Fi - any suggestions for other meal or which is better meal?

Wed - break day, shopping, pool & DTD or Boardwalk, want to try Beaches & Cream, good out of park places to eat?

Thurs - MK - PS at CRT, want to make PS for CP dinner- are 2 char. meals in one day really too much? Since we don't have many options on time, want to see char. more at meals than chasing down in parks.

Fri - AK - use lunch deal they offer, offsite dinner or DTD/Boardwalk, whichever we missed

Sat - leisure day at SW to see what we missed, fly out 6:30 pm

Are there any restaurants outside of Epcot to watch Illuminations? We can't do Epcot but would love to see that show. Thanks for any advice!

The dining plans look good. For the MK day, if you want one non-character meal try LLT instead of CP. Nothing wrong with CP but it's up to you on what is too much for character interaction.

There are no restaurants outside Epcot to view Illuminations properly and few instide the park also. May I suggest that on your break day (Wed) or Friday have dinner at the BW and then enter Epcot around 8pm to get a viewing spot for Illuminations.
