Ok, I am trying to plan what days to do what in WDW for the week of
Oct 1 -10. My mission is to avoid as much crowds as is humanly possible. This is not our first trip to WDW so we don't have to do everything, but we do like to go "commando" style (at the parks at open until closing). We will have the dining MYW & park hoppers. Can you take a look at my plan & see if you would arrange things differently. Thanks!

Saturday 10/1 - Arrive at 9:00am at POR
Go to DTD for lunch & shopping. Chef Mickey's for dinner. ::MickeyMo

Sunday 10/2 - MK - breakfast at Crystal Palace. I like to make my first "Disney" day at MK but this day has MNSSHP & therefore MK will close at 6. Should I switch with Monday Epcot day?) :confused3

Monday 10/3 - Epcot - PSB breakfast Norway, Beaches & Cream Dinner. Monday is EMH at Epcot. Some say go, some say stay away from EMH???? Switch with Sunday?

Tuesday 10/4 - POR Boatwright's breakfast & hang out at the hotel (pool & fishing) then off to LTT dinner at 4-5p.m.ish and MNSSHP.

Wednesday 10/5 - Late start (from being out the prior night) MK
CRT - dinner. This is MK EMH p.m. My idea here is to get in as much MK earlier in the week before the Columbus Day crowds. I find MK is harder than the other parks to navigate when its crowded. :crowded:

Thursday 10/6 - MGM, lunch at Sci Fi, Dinner at MM/Fantasmic. :wizard:

Friday 10/7 - This was going to be an all AK day however my kids want to do the grand adventures in cooking at the GF which is only given Tuesday & Friday. Since Tuesday was no good, Friday was our only other day. The cooking class is at the GF from 10-12. (Dh & I can have a late breakfast alone at the GF cafe :hug: )Hop over to AK after that for 1/2 day afternoon & then AKL for Boma's dinner. Check out AKl for possible future visit. :teeth:

Saturday 10/8 Epcot day - Biergarten dinner.

Sunday 10/9 - I figured it would be really crowded this day so we planned a Family Magic Tour in the a.m. at MK. We will stay for awhile if the crowds are good but go over to Epcot if they get too much. Dinner at 1900 PF w/ Cindy.

Monday 10/10 - Early departure so just breakfast at POR & go home. :sad:

How does that sound? The rest of the meals will be counter service since we have to use those cs credits. We have 9 sit downs planned.
Thank you for taking the time to check this over. :flower:

Sorry, my kids are here talking to me so I cannot concentrate. Get's harder as I get older! :rotfl:

I was wondering about switching Sunday from MK to Epcot & Monday from Epcot to MK. Thanks
