Am I missing out on anything??

[jsphotography]

Planning our first trip for Oct 1-8, definitely a girls trip (myself, my mom, and 5 year old princess) so we wanted every opportunity to see the princesses! we're staying off site so i've been up at 6AM online booking things they last few days and (more or less) have everything i *think* i wanted, but since i've never been i dont really know what i'm missing! can you think of anything that I should try and add for our last few days of vacation???

Oct 1- MNSSHP- Tony's @ 6:30
Oct 2- Epcot- Akershus @ 9:40 and Tutto Italia @ 4:45 (wanted Le Cellier, but knew it was a long shot, i'm not heart broken if I can't get it)
Oct 3- MK- CRT @ 10:30, LTT @ 5:55 (not sold on LTT, would rather try for the plaza or CP)
Oct 4- HS- 1900 Park Fare @ 9:20AM, 50's Prime Time @ 5:20
Oct 5- AK- Chef Mickeys @ 9:30, 1900 Park Fare @ 7:30
Oct 6- seaworld, but could book something fun for dinner or breakfast??
Oct 7- ???? maybe back to MK?

Am I missing anything good? I don't have anything planned for tuesday or wed.. and i wouldnt mind switching around check mickeys breakfast to a different day or canceling breakfast at 1900 Park Fare on the 4th all together... I'd like a couple nicer places for my mom... any suggestions on places (mainly dinner) I should add for the last few days?? We're all fairly picky eaters (no seafood, chinese...) so i tried to pick places with a fairly simple menu.. Thanks!!!

When we did Sea World day, we had breakfast and dinner at our resort. We spend the day at Sea World and took our time so I would not do a breakfast or dinner at Disney since you are staying off site. I enjoyed breakfast better than dinner at 1900 Park Fare but it is a different characters for breakfast and dinner. If you want a nice dinner we enjoyed Narcossee's...my son like the location b/c we were seated at the window so he can see the boats and we saw the fireworks.

It seems like a nice selection, but be forewarned, that's a lot of sit down meals. At least for the meals where it's not family style or buffet, you could share an entree if you want, or get an appetizer if you are not very hungry. Don't forget you may want some Food & Wine snacks. I guess you don't really plan on going back to your hotel for a break? Not that there aren't some nice things to do in Disney to give yourself a little break(TTA, Ellen's Energy Adventure, etc).
I love LTT, it's very simple but tasty food. Tutto is getting some great reviews, I almost wish I had a ressie there myself--we'll be there 10/3-10/10. 1900 PF gets so-so reviews for the food, but it sounds like the entertainment is really good--at least at dinner w/the stepsisters.
MNSSHP is just awesome, we are going to CP the night we go. This year I want to get my face painted, they have free face painting in a couple different areas.
Is your daughter going to do BBB?
A girls' trip sounds wonderful, hope you have a great time!!

You must do MNSSHP but stay late cause they give handfuls of candy after 11:30! DD won the Young Authors Award writing about her experience riding Big Thunder Mountain RR over and over and over again with her dad! That happened at MNSSHP! The free face painting is wonderful too! Go early to that and you won't have as big a wait. WATCH the parade! It is great! I am not a parade person either..

We like Crystal Palace when in MK and it is a TS buffet. We also love LTT too, it is like having Thanksgiving dinner early! It is simple to be sure, but your princess should have lots to eat there.

That does seem like a lot of sit down meals. We usually stick to one sit down table service meal a day. I also question some of your scheduled times in terms of losing a lot of park time. You have to remember that things aren't close together at WDW, so transporation time needs to be figured in too. If you are having an AK day, I'm not sure Chef Mickey's at 9:30 is a good idea. The Contempary is approximately a 20-25 minute drive from AK. I'm assuming you would be driving as you are staying off site and you can't leave your car at the Comtemporary all day, but if you are using Disney transportation note that doesn't count any time you have to spend waiting on the bus. Character meals can be slow depending on where the characters are when you are seated and how long you have to wait for them to all get to your table. We were told to figure 1 1/2 hours for such a meal. We have spent less than that, but we have also spent that much time or more. You probably won't get to AK until about noon, which isn't going to leave you that much time to enjoy the park, especially if you want to fit shows in. I would think trying the character breakfast at Tusker House in AK (has Mickey Donald Daisy and Goofy in their Safari clothes), would be a better choice that day. We have done that one and the food was really good. Also on your HS day a 9:20 breakfast at 1900 could very well keep you from getting to ride Toy Story Mania, unless you want to wait in line for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Again, you are talking about not getting to the park until probably close to noon. We have been to WDW last December and in May and the fast passes for TSM are often gone by then. If you are extremely lucky, you will hit a 45 minute line. Most times we saw it, it was over an hour. If TSM is a priority for your daughter, you want to be at the park when they open.

thanks for the opinions!! the main reason I booked so many table service places is because my mom has been doing the gluten free thing for a while, so incase by October she's still not eating wheat/gluten I thought it would be easier to cater to that at a table service restaurant than at a counter service. I think I'm going to drop LTT, I'm not super excited about that anyway, and switch Chef Mickeys to Wed morning instead of Monday morning. Any other ideas??
