I only had one day I could go to the parks and was pretty worried it would be crazy packed. But it was very manageable. I did everything I wanted to do and more, and never waited in any real lines! Here is what I did:

Arrived at gates at 7:00 am. Not so much because I wanted to be crazy early, but more so because I was jet legged and wide awake and it was beautiful. I was second at the gates. At 7:40 or so they opened the gates but held us as the turnstyles about five minutes. Then they let us in and held us at the rope (I was first at the rope). At 8:00 am they let us in.

Alice in Wonderland - Walked right on
Storybook canal boats - Waited 3 min (till next boat came)
Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride - Walked right on
Casey Jr Train - Waited for train to arrive (2 min)
Got Haunted Mansion Fastpass

Indiana Jones - Posted 10 min wait, did single rider and walked right on

Tiki Room - Waited for next show to start
Indiana Jones (was in line but ride broke down so left)
Davey Crocket Canoes - Waited for next canoe
Went to ride Pooh Bear again but it was down so ate dinner at Hungry Bear Restaurant
Train all the way around to front of park - Waited for next train to arrive
Walked around including looking at the museum of park history, gift shops on main street.
Left at 5:45 pm.

This was a very leisurely day, lots of pictures, shopping in stores, bathroom breaks etc. Not commando run run run, and I got tons done! I was very impressed!

Any questions?
 
I was there, too! It was great. You got more done than my family, but we have a 4yr old and a 1yr old. HM was down when we were in NOS, so you're lucky you got to go twice!
 
Yes, this was a day with just me, so I was able to likely see more than if I'd had my family with me, but I was still shocked on how much I could get done for a weekend in Summer. But more importantly, how I didn't have to wait in any long lines to do it!
