I hear you!! We took a family trip with our 3 adult "kids" and their spouses - and I can tell you it was like herding cats...we didn't get anywhere in a hurry!Depends on many circumstances, but I'd leave the park around 3 or 4pm and return around 6pm - with kids or a larger group, I'd definitely leave by 3pm. We find that everything takes more time than we expect at Disney, particularly with three kids or a larger group. This isn't a negative, nor Disney's fault. Just so many things that catch someone's attention, and with more than a couple adults, we talk and walk more slowly. When we traveled with my very active parents in January, we walked at a snail's pace because we were talking, someone was stopping in a shop or, at one point, my husband and dad were "lost" in La Cava del Taquila. Breaks were far longer because getting everyone in and out of anywhere took a long time!
Finally, after trying to "stick to the plans" I gave up, and we did what we wanted to - sometimes going separate ways - meeting back together for dining reservations and special events...that was great!
