Advise on my itinerary

[Joan1]

Here is my itinerary so far. Can someone please help with comments /suggestions?
We are two adults and two children age 9 & 7 and have been to Disney a few times before. Thanks

Friday Aug 19 - Arrival day - no parks, enjoying the AKL concierge, pool and dinner at Boma

Sat Aug 20 - MK - Lunch at Cinderella's castle / break / dinner either in Epcot or Downtown Disney

Sun Aug 21 - Sunrise Safari / pool or water park in the afternoon / Jiko dinner 7:30pm

Mon Aug 22 - Epcot (EMH morning) / lunch at Morocco / break / back to Epcot for anniversary dinner at 7:30pm

Tue Aug 23 - Water park in morning / MGM in the evening dinner at 50's prime time 6pm
I am not sure about this one as it is EMH in the morning will this make the park busier the rest of the day?

Wed Aug 24 - MK / break sometime in the day / MK again at night. We were planning on eating at Crystal Palace but the latest avaialble is 5:10pm
This park has EMH at night

Thu Aug 25 - no park - leaving for 3 night cruise

I like your second itinerary better. I think MGM would be too crowded on an EMH day especially since you wouldn't be arriving until the afternoon. Looks like you have a great mix of relaxation and park touring. Have fun!

Can you switch something around so you are not at MK on a Saturday?

It was tough picking the MK for a Saturday but Sunday and Monday were out and I didn't want to go to a water park on a Saturday as I have heard they are really crowded. So Saturday for a half day seemed the best option. We only do a couple of rides in Fantasyland and then get out of there as my kids are outgrowing those rides but love the 3D show. We avoid Toontown at all costs and use fastpass whenever we can. Hopefully it won't be too bad

Thanks for answering
