the day we're headed to MK, there are EMH @ 8am.

i had planned on taking my daughters to BBB @ 8 (pics inside the park with no one else!) and then, once they were finished, beating the rush to rope drop at fantasy land.

fast forward thru the afternoon: about 3-ish, we'd head back to CRT and snag the last lunch slot before heading back for well-deserved naps!

but now that there are magic hours, my plan is effectively shot.

so question: when would you schedule BBB in order to maximize ride-time? definitely NOT at 8, right? maybe in the afternoon? (keep in mind that we're going over spring break....so crowds will be at their HIGHEST.)

thoughts?
 
If possible, I would reschedule MK for another day, following your existing plan.

If not possible, I would try to move BBB to a later time.

i can't....it's their birthday!

but maybe i'll move BBB closer to noon-ish....they'll be hot & tired and the crowds will be ridiculous.

thanks! :thumbsup2

Do you have reservations at CRT? Those would probably be the hardest to reschedule if you already have them!
 

I wouldn't schedule BBB anytime they'll be napping soon after. They may mess up their princess hairdos. If you don't want them to be tired, I would suggest not going quite as early, going to BBB soon before lunch, then letting them enjoy lunch with Cinderella as princesses, then hit all the rides. You can always grab a fastpass before lunch to be used after! :)
 
I would also recommend alotting some time to take some pictures in the Castle Couture after BBB, especially if you will do anything with the photopass. We scheduled BBB for 10:30 (we were taken in about 15 min late even though we arrived at 10:15 like recommended). Took about 1/2 hour then walked to the CC gift shop where they took some really nice "glam" shots (my favs on the photopass). We had 11:55 CRT reservations and the timing was perfect.
