A new plan

[umaangel00]

OK, After taking in everyone's suggestions, I have a new plan. I have 2 of them depending on how long we stay. We are staying at POP with free dining (upgrade to normal dining instead of just QS) The first one is for March 27-April 1, 2012.

Day of arrival: 1st EPCOT day - breakfast on the road, lunch: Le Cellier, Dinner: not sure yet.

Magic Kingdom day(won't know days until I see schedule and night time EMH) - Breakfast in room or Everything pop (OOP), Lunch: Cosmic Rays, Dinner: Ohana.

2nd EPCOT day: Breakfast in room or EP (OOP), Lunch: Sunshine Season, Dinner: Biergarten.

Hollywood Studios day: Breakfast in room or EP (OOP), Lunch: Toy Story Pizza Planet, Dinner: 50's Prime Time Cafe.

Animal Kingdom day: Everything POP (this will be our QS for the day), Lunch: Afternoon tea at Grand Floridian (OOP) (going to try and get as close to 4:30 as possible), Dinner: Late ADR at Boma.

If we do my 2nd plan we would be staying March 25-31 so we would get an extra day. This day will be used for DTD and touring the resorts.

Extra day: Breakfast in room or EP (OOP), lunch: Earl of Sandwich, Dinner: Planet Hollywood or Raglan Road.

Now this is all assuming all these places are on the dining plan for 2012 so this plan could change. This is our first time staying onsite so this is all new to me.

Since it looks like you'll have that one extra CS, you may want to try splitting the bounty platter for breakfast and use a snack to fill in if you need to. You'll have your refillable mugs for coffee/soda. This way, you may get 2 breakfasts out of the plan and not have to pay OOP. You'll need to try it earlier in your week, though.

However, it's a loooongg time from breakfast to a 4:30 tea. Won't you need something in between. And you may want to reconsider you dinner for this night. You'll finish with tea around 5:30 or so. Will you be hungry enough for a buffet?

I have to agree with sharonabe about your AK day. Tea at the GF will leave you with very little appetite for dinner, unless your ADR at Boma was VERY late. And early morning breakfast to late afternoon tea is a really long time to go between meals when you are actively touring a park. A lot of travelling on this day too: resort to AK. AK to PoP to freshen up and change clothes. Pop to GF for tea. GF to ??? Then ??? to AKL for dinner and then back to resort.

If you get that extra day, I would really recommend Raglan Road over Planet Hollywood. And I wouldn't worry too much about any of these places falling off of the dining plan next year. That's pretty much a non-issue with any of these places.

I was really only going to do the Tea so I could get a slipper dessert LOL. Do you two have any suggestions on what to do that day? We would have bfast in the room more than likely and no clue for CS and then Boma for dinner.

AK has Flame Tree BBQ, Pizzafari, Yak n Yeti (chinese CS), and Restaurantasaurus (hamburgers). So you have quite a variety for CS right there at the park. You can stay there until time for your EARLIER ADR at Boma.
