Wheew girl... you plan ahead!!! Shhhh... don't tell anyone, but I've got my December trip all planned out, and haven't even gone on my June trip yet. Anyway, back to your plan. Looks good to me. You probably don't need to overplan for October since it's not a super-busy time. I like your park a day plan. I would plan to spend a little more time than 1/2 day at Epcot. You and your hubby are sure to love it after all the "kiddie" parks and I'm sure your DD will enjoy making masks and meeting characters. Epcot has lots of them if you're there at the right time. I'd actually plan your other character meal for Epcot. Your choices are Princess Storybook Dining at Akershus (B - $21.99, L - $23.99, or D - $27.99) or Chip and Dale's Garden Feast at the Garden Grill (L - $20.99 or D - $22.99). Have a great time!

Hi Heather,

My only suggestion, is regarding your animal kingdom day. I wouldn't sleep in on that day. Maybe make priority seating for Donalds Prehistoric breakfast, make them as early as they start seating. This way you get into the park before it opens. Donalds is in the side where Dinosaur is, but triceratop spins is right there so your daughter will enjoy that. So many go to AK late, and all the animals are ready for their naps. We have found get there early, enjoy the animals and shows before the afternoon heat hits, and head back to the hotel mid-afternoon, to enjoy the resort and pool. I would hit AK counterclockwise, and end your day with It's tough to be a bug, you should be able to knock it out by 12:00. This is one of our favorite parks, but getting there early is the key!!!

Have fun,

Dee

Sounds good

Wed 5th

Not sure if you are staying onsite but this night might be EMH at MK...

Thurs 6th
Sleep in
then head over to AK for the day

I agree with the other poster; I wouldn't sleep in before AK. Also, AK can be done in half a day so I'd plan on something else in the evening. They also close early. I'd do another park or do DTD?

Fri 7th
Sea World
(my brother is suppose to arrive late from Savannah to spend weekend)
(bro, sisil, neice 14 nephew5)

Sounds good

Sat 8th
MGM for the day

MGM can be done in one day but it's tiring. Do you want to finish it with Fantasmic?? LOVE this show! Sometimes it's hard to do everything you want to because of the timing of the shows like Ariel, Belle, playhouse disney and then do the rides and parade... We like doing the Fantasmic dinner package at Hollywood and Vine so we can see the show without waiting in the regular line.

Sunday 9th
Magic Kingdom

Good to see another MK day as it's the most fun with little ones and takes lots of time to see it all. It will probably close at 7:00p and might be an early entry day.

Monday 10th
Epcot in morning and wing the afternoon maybe pool and DTD or Boardwalk

I think you might need more Epcot time.

Tuesday 11th
Go home

Thurs and Saturday could be swapped

I like booking a couple of character meals. We enjoy Chef Mickey's, Crystal Palace and either The castle for breakfast with Cinderella or Princess Storybook at Epcot to see the Princesses.

Not sure where you are staying so it's hard to recommend other restaurants.
