Hi everyone -
We are going to WDW the first week in October for 3 nights. Just three of us - mom, dad, and 5.5 YO son who absolutely loves Mickey and friends. He has never been to WDW before. We are staying at the Polynesian. There is a Halloween party on both our landing day (Thurs) and the day after (Fri). Our flight lands at 10:30 AM so I figure we will be at the resort around lunch on our landing day.
We are definitely going to do MK on that Friday because I’ve read crowds are better on party days and that’s probably the best park for my son. On our landing day, however, we are torn. I’m considering doing MK for the afternoon and having dinner at Chef Mickeys once we get kicked out at 6 (we will not be going to the party). Alternatively, we could do AK for the afternoon and do dinner at Tusker House.
My son kind of likes zoos but he’s not obsessed or anything. I think the boneyard would probably be his favorite part of AK. I think he will love MK, and it’s definitely a more convenient park for our landing day… but I keep reading that the food at Chef Mickeys is really bad.
If we don’t go to AK on our landing day we won’t go at all. But the extra half day at MK might be better for us given his age and it’s size.
Either way we want to start our trip with dinner with Mickey and Friends. It will be a highlight for my son.
WWYD?
Thanks!
