Hi - I'm new here, so please let me know if this is the wrong place to post this.
My husband and I haven't been to Disney since we were teenagers, and we're heading down there the end of august with our 2 sons, for my eldest's 7th birthday (48"), the youngest will be 3 and a few months. He's currently 37 1/2 inches tall - what are the odds of him gaining half an inch in 2 months to be able to ride slinky dog dash?
We're staying at the Polynesian
We arrive at Orlando at 10:02am (domestic flight) and we're taking the magic express.
Arrival Day:
5:10pm dinner at Saana
(No other plans, but we have the +fun package, so might use this this day or just chill at the polynesian)
Day 1 - Epcot:
(I know it's food at wine, kinda looking forward to this)
7:30 Kona Cafe
9:45 - 10:45am Fast pass, Spaceship Earth
11:15-12:15pm Fast pass, Test Track (I'm planning to either rider swap or wander around with the little guy)
12:25 PM - 1:25pm The Seas with Nemo (moved from later)
Dinner (something counter service or from the food & wine stands)
Day 2 - Magic Kingdom:
7:50 am - Chef Mickey's
10:00-11:00am - Fast pass, barnstormer for me and the little guy
10:15-11:15am - Fast pass, Space mountain for my husband and eldest
11:25am-12:15pm - Fast pass, Speedway, for all of us
2:20pm Pirates League for the boys
3:35-4:35pm - Fast pass, pirates of the caribean
(I'd also like to squeeze in splash mountain, but again, the little guy is too small for this)
8:15pm - O'hana dinner
Day 3 - Hollywood Studios
(Fast passes for this day were challenging! We really just want to see toy story land, and maybe some star wars, I'm also not sure about the breakfast reservation, my kids don't really watch disney junior but it gets us into the park early. Edit: Canceled the breakfast reservation, it looks like they're saying there's extra magic hours this morning)
10:00am - 11:00am - Fast Pass, Star Tours (little guy can't do this)
11:15am-12:15pm - Fast Pass, Muppet Tours 3d
2:45 Midway Mania Fast Pass (I need to see if something earlier opens up)
5:15pm - 50's Prime Time Cafe Reservation
(We had a slinky dog fast pass, but my son is still on the short side, and the FP time was so late in the day I wasn't sure about it - I think we may try to go first thing if he grows a bit in the next few weeks)
Departure Day -
8:30am Supercalafragastic Breakfast at Park Fare
3:40pm - Domestic Flight
I also want to add a cake or other special birthday celebration to one of these - I'm not sure which one makes the most sense. I will definitely be asking for a birthday pin for my son.
Anyway thoughts? Any horrible mistakes? We'll be bringing an umbrella stroller for the 3 year old. Some of these reservation times are weird because I really want to do that thing (like slinky dog dash) but great time slots weren't available.
