Can this itinerary work for May 2006?

[mhingher]

DH and I will be joining my parents for a trip to WDW next May (didn't book the exact week just yet, but it will be the 1st or 2nd week of the month). As I mentioned in an earlier post, DH is not too excited about going. So I decided to compromise, and plan more that he enjoys (bars at night, relaxing by the pool, Blizzard Beach, etc.) I have never gone in May, but I heard the crowds are bearable and the weather is beautiful. What are your thoughts on this itinerary? And does anyone know the general park hours for this time of year? I have gone during the summer when they are open late, and in March when the parks close around 9pm.

Saturday night- fly into Orlando from Newark (I probably have to work until 5pm), Downtown Disney?
Sunday- WDW park, Pleasure Island for PM
Monday- relax by pool in the AM; WDW park after lunch
Tuesday- Universal/IOA
Wednesday- Blizzard Beach or Typhoon Lagoon (we've been to BB and loved it-- should we try TL?)
Thursday- WDW park; Jelly Rolls (Boardwalk) for PM
Friday- relax by pool in the AM; WDW park
Saturday- Downtown Disney, fly back to Newark mid-afternoon

Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated! I want DH to be excited about this trip!

maybe you mean just mk, i would make a plan as to what parks you want to see on what days,also do you realize that univ/ and ioa are 2 seperate parks and they are not on disney property, they are a good drive away and the parking lot is 10 miles from the parks, we were there for 4 days and didn't see everything so 1 day for 1 park maybe but not for 2 parks.

I would definitely plan certain parks on each day-- I want to wait for the hours to be released, along with the schedule for parades and EMH. As for Universal and IOA- We did both parks in one day this past March, and my DH and brother in law did both parks last June. It's definitely possible!

Here's a link to historical park hours for the last few years:http://www.intercot.com/infocentral/calendar/historical/archive/default.asp
