we're doing dinner - I just can't fathom paying that much for breakfast! Plus, morning is the best time to ride rides, so we dont want to spend a big chunk of time (2 hours!) eating.
a large breakfast early in the morning, a reservation at 8 on a morning the park opens at 9... you have your travel out of the way, you have your tank full... you can get a lot of milage out of a day like that
