First Timer Planning Dining- Needing Advice and Help

[tracylynn]

I am a First Timer and I am having tons of fun planning. I think I have over scheduled us for dining. It will be myself another mom and our 12 YR old daughters that are picky eaters. Below I have our schedule. I am wondering can if we can just have dessert on a few of my selections like 50s Prime Time and Rose and Crown. I reallt booked the Rose and Crown for the Illumination show and so my daughter can have Fish and Chips. Trying to figure out if I have way too much scheduled. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.

The only day that I see an issue is the Thursday, with Le Cellier and Rose and Crown. They are a little close together. You can easily see illuminations from plenty of places around world showcase, but if you really want to sit at the restaurant, I would probably stick to desserts.

Another option is that Rose and Crown has a counter service. You could order the fish and chips from the counter service right before illuminations and then walk to find a spot for the show. It would be cheaper than sitting in the restaurant.

I don't think your over scheduled at all. The only other observation I have is your CP time. That is scheduled right at opening when you will have the best use of riding time. If you have no other choice then I would leave it alone because I love CP and wouldn't miss it but if you have the option to make it earlier I would try for that. You could also try for the latest breakfast or earliest lunch so you can get into the park at rope drop and ride the rides for a few hours and then take a break in and have a nice meal. Just my 2 cents!

Agreed. Plus, 6:55 is pretty early if you're not planning to eat much/be too hungry and intend to 'stretch' your meal to two+ hours.
