Early ADR's for Crystal Palace and Chef Mickey's?

[BABY_EINSTEIN'S_MOM]

I'm not sure where all to post this, but I had some questions. We have an 8:00a.m. on Monday for Crystal Palace and an 8:30a.m. for Chef Mickey's on Thursday for our trip in April. It seems, from reading the boards, that I am going to have a heck of a time getting to where I need to be since I am staying offsite. I have heard that I can drive straight to the CR for Mickey's and to go to the TTC and get a monorail for CP. This is our first family trip, and I know nothing about getting around Disney! Maybe I should change my ADR's to lunch, if possible? Would that be easier? I really want one breakfast though! Help! Thanks!

OK, for CM's, you can park at the Contemporary. Just tell the guards at the gate that you have a reservation for breakfast. Follow the signs to the Magic Kingdom and then look for the resort sigh.

For CP, you will need to park at the TTC and take the monorail or Ferry to MK. Being that early, you might be cutting it really close, but you should be OK. If you would like less stress, you could try to change to a later time, but it is nice getting into the park early. Is this by chance an EMH morning? If so, you won't have a problem.
