ADR's coming up...

Hi. Appreciate any thoughts or feedback. We are a family of 5 (Me, DH, DD-13, DD-11, DD-9) on our second trip to Disney (last there 4 years ago) We are staying at the Beach Club at the end of August..

8/23 - arrive. La Hacienda de San Angel - My husband loved the soft shrimp tacos otherwise the option is to just eat around the world a little.
8/24 - Crystal Palace 8AM - love being in the park before it opens! and while no one really cares about Pooh, we did feel it was an extensive breakfast buffet
BOG Dinner
8/25 - Teppan Edo Dinner
8/26 - Cape May buffet - Hollywood Studios during the day and MK at night so thought a quickish dinner at our resort would be nice
8/27 - O'Hana - want to watch the MK fireworks from the beach after dinner. Was thinking 7PM reservation?
8/28 - Royal Akershus - 8AM and then FEA right after breakfast.

Thanks so much for taking the time.

Looks lovely.

I know how close Epcot is to your resort, and that's great, but I don't see any time at Animal Kingdom - Pandora: World of Avatar is opening this summer.

May I suggest you review new MK pre-Park opening. This might impact your personal-calculus for Crystal Palace.

We've never watched fireworks from Polynesian, but is that still possible with new beachside bungalows? Also, getting back to Beach Club is not that easy from Polynesian. Disney has made going resort-to-resort a lengthy process.

As you've planned, the pre-park opening at Akershus is the way to go if you want to get on FEA with a short wait. Since the meal is a set price, ask your Server to bring the check with your breakfast (they are used to the request).

(Downtown) Disney Springs has many new restaurants. Looks like you may have overlooked here as an option.

An option - if there's late hours - is to take the Poly bus to HS (or walk to TTC to go to Epcot) and walk to BC from there. I agree though, resort to resort is not very easy - although Uber is a great resource.

All looks good - but wanted to add you may want to stop for a meet & greet with Anna & Elsa which is right there as well if your girls like them and the wait times shouldn't be that long at all . [/QUOTE]
