Itinerary (subject to change)
Saturday, October 1
Flight lands at 2:00PM. Board Magical Express and hope to get to Beach Club by 3:30PM. Check in and hit Stormalong Bay for a few hours, then freshen up and head to Epcot for a late
Biergarten reservation. Not sure I want to fight the Saturday night crowds at the F&W booths, and we've never done Biergarten.
Sunday, October 2
Get to MK in time to see opening show. It's a party night, so we'll leave MK when we get tired, most likely after watching Festival of Fantasy from Frontierland. Pool time at the resort and then a late dinner at
Cape May.
Monday, October 3
Arrive to Animal Kingdom by 7:45AM for 8:00 EMH. Ride EE over and over until EMH is over (this is our tradition!). Have a QS breakfast, and then check in for the
Wild Africa Trek tour. This is where my plans get fuzzy since we don't know the Rivers of Light details yet, but hopefully it will be running in full swing by October. I'd like to book a dinner package for RoL viewing so we will probably spend the whole day in AK.
Tuesday, October 4
Rope drop at DHS. Half day park for us, so we'll take an early pool break, have dinner at
Beaches & Cream then head to MK for
MNSSHP. I do know the party ticket gets you in at 4, but we find the MK too crowded between 4-7pm, so we like to be a bit fashionably late.
Wednesday, October 5
Free morning with plans to hit MK in the evening for night EMH. I'm hoping they extend the hours to 2AM like we attended in 2014. We have a
Liberty Tree Tavern reservation this evening.
Thursday, October 6
Sleep in day, and then Uber to Typhoon Lagoon to use our free water park admission included in our magical deal. I know, I know, we're staying at a resort with the best pool on property! But TL is DS's favorite park in all of WDW (I'm telling you, this kid loves water) so it's a must-do. Also, we Uber it, as my experience with Disney buses and water parks is much less than magical. We've usually had our fill of water parks by about 2pm (or at least Mom is), so we'll probably head back to the BC to freshen up and then spend the evening in Epcot. No ADR's as we'll browse the Food & Wine booths.
Friday, October 7
Be at MK by 7:45AM for 8:00AM EMH. We've never done morning EMH at MK, so it will be a new experience for us. We'll take a pool break after lunch, and then Uber to the Polynesian for our early
'Ohana dinner, then to MK for
MNSSHP #2.
Saturday, October 8
Departure day.
Pack up and check bags with bell services, then head to either Epcot or DHS (or both). Tragical Express pickup at 2PM.
Welcome to my pre-trip report!
