I hope this is the right place to ask. Don't want to upset any Vet's or Mods.

So our very first trip to WDW is happening in 16 days!! We booked back in March and I thought I was on top of the blogs, and threads and asking for advice and felt pretty prepared. I bought our moleskin and misters. Broke in the new pairs of shoes. Have hats and sunblock. I felt pretty good. Then I started trolling these Boards and I feel like an ant!! Touring plans? Snack plans? Water parks vs Resort pools??!!??
And the BIGGEST change has been looking at the touring plan calendars!! According to those I've picked the worst days to go to some of the parks?!
Help!!

Will someone please help me! Here is our information so far with ADR's.

We have 4 day park hopper with water parks and more Thank you Military :thumbsup2 But we will be there Sunday-Sunday Aug 5-12. We are staying AoA. We also have the DDP 1TS, 1QS, 1Snack

ADR's
arrival day - chef mickeys for dinner / no parks
monday - MK no ADR
Tuesday - AK in the am, with 7:30am ADR at Boma/Epcot in the later afternoon evening
wednesday - 1900 Park Fare at 11am/ Waterpark/DTD
Thursday- Hollywood Studios/ no ADR
Friday - Epoct in the AM/ MK in the afternoon to evening with ADR at Royal Table at 8:25pm
Saturday - WaterPark/DTD no ADR
Sunday - Early Departure

Is this ok? Will we make our ADR's? should i plan more? go to different parks? buy a 2 day ticket for the other days?!?!?:headache:

I want to have a great vacation and am in the works to book our first cruise/first Disney cruise for Nov 2013!! I'd hate to be stressed before it even begins!! :blush: Thanks in Advance!
 
Hi there! I hope you enjoy your first trip!

(The mods will probably move this thread, but don't worry about it!)

I think most people will agree - don't stress, just relax! You sound like you've done a lot of planning already.

Hopefully this helps you feel better - but I've never looked at crowd calenders. I just go the day that works best for me (based on ADRs, or sometimes I like taking advantage of the extra magic hours), and don't worry about the crowds. As long as I have a basic plan of attack for my day, I've never worried about what the crowd calenders say.

ENJOY!
 
Hi ! Hope I can help ! You seem to have a lot of running around between parks, which I would not reccomend, due to the heat and crowds !
-Days 1 and 2 seem fine , but read about the CS optioons , just to know which you prefer, to make a quick decision.
Day 3- I seriously don't think you can get from AoA to AKL in time for 7:30 with Disney transportation. You would need to take a cab.And Boma is not near Epcot. I would choose restaurants in the park, as the AKL is a bus ride away from AK.Lotys of traveling back and forth.
Day4-again, from the GF to a waterpark to DTD is about 3 hours of bus rides during your day ? You might want to choose 1 option.
I would reccomend you pick a park per day,get there as early as possible, stay until you can't take it, relax at the pool in the afternoon, and then go back if you feel like it.
It seems you only have 4 of your TS credits used, see if you can get an ADR before the MK opens, that would help a lot.
Good luck and have fun !
