Breakfast is from 7:30 am - 12:05 pm. You can walk or take a boat from BWI to DHS. Walking is about 15 minutes. The boat takes about 20 minutes. uber/lyft/minnie van would take about 5 - 10 minutes.

I think it looks a lot better! I like that you’ve spread the meals out a bit and left some open for snacks /QS. Enjoy!

What would you recommend for Day 5 dinner either at HS or Boardwalk or Epcot area resorts? Which Italian restaurant is better Il Mulino or Tratoria Al Forno? My daughter loves raviolis? Do any Italian restaurants offer Raviolis for kids?

I like both but I think Il Mulino is better for adults. For kids, Al Forno cannot be beat. It is on the Boardwalk and children fit right in. I have no idea if ravioli is offered on the kids menu.

Another option for Italian is Mama Melrose at HS. Not sure if they have ravioli though.

Your schedule brings back a lot of great memories. Back in 2006 when I thought we were a one and done we did most of your schedule. Just a suggestion have you YouTubed Beaces & Cream? Even thou it was just one little girl I got her the Kitchen Sink and almost 13 years later she still talks about it.

Thanks KenHutch. We did Beaches and Cream on our trip last May. We all enjoyed it and that is a possibility. Can you please tell me more about your trip even though it was back in 2006?

Well back in 2005 my daughter started talking about the commercials on the Disney Channel. So in 2006 we went. I also invited her mother and a great aunt (keep peace in the family) because I thought it would be a one time trip. I scheduled what it now our norm 2 days a park. I researched the restaurants and we did CRT at breakfast and Askershus at breakfast. We also did things like Beaches & Cream (lunch and a kitchen sink and the Princess Tea Party) We also did BBB and I have a great memory from there. She was all dressed up as Aurora and while there she found an ugly pair of Aurora shoes. Well even in 2006 they cost $35. She did the please daddy I will wear them forever. We got them and 2 hours later she is sitting down on a boar crying. The shoes were very uncomfortable. I still have them in a China case. I love Disney because there are things she did that I will never forget. Our 1st ride was Dumbo (before they moved it) and things like the hard choice on what horse to ride on the carousel. Now I my defense I have to tell you I am a retired Marine and did not start parenthood till 40. At almost 19 now and starting KU in the fall to study engineering she still rules my universe.

Sounds like a very similar princess journey for us. My 18 year old princess starts MU in the fall to study engineering.

So many great memories.

I am a Senior IT Specialist/Analysat for the federal government. I really have no idea where this love of engineering came. She sailed thru Trig and Calculus without studying but on the last trip in June we had to go to Trattoria so an 18 year old could get her picture taken with Rapunzel.

Just means you raised her right.

Does Il Mulino have ravioli for children?

I am just back from a trip with 2, 6 year olds and I would say plan one sit down a day. Also, even though you are trying to be princess focused I would plan other character meals to round out the meet n greets. I ended up having 2 character meals with the fab 5 and I actually thought that was too much, especially because we also met Minnie and Mickey, Pluto and Donald in AK. I wasn’t expecting my daughter to be so into meet n greets but she was willing to wait any amount of time for meets. It didn’t matter to her if we met them at a previous meal.

LOL! When my DGD was little we spent the first two years of WDW parks in lines to meet characters. She was one little Character hound!

I agree that even though a child seems to be focused on Princesses, there is a lot to be said for booking a few with other characters that you do not usually meet in the parks. My Nola's favorite M&G was with Alice at 1900 PF. WHo knew she would spend the rest of the trip and weeks after showing off her classic Alice curtsy????

Just wanted to give you a heads up in Via Napoli. I would steer her toward the ravioli there if she’s at all picky about her pizza (or doesn’t like her toast burnt). They put a noticeable char on the crust which all 3 of my kids objected to.

My wife and I ate at Via Napoli in 2013 so I did know about the char. Thanks.
