Getting Close! Thoughts?

[LaMickey]

I am still a little over a month away from my ADR window, but have a tentative schedule below on which I would appreciate comments. I should note a couple of things. First, there will be 9 in our party – 2 adults and 7 children (with 4 girls 10 or younger ). So you will note that there are a number of character meals. Also, my teenagers are generally not real adventurous so their choice are more in line with Sci-fi and Via Napoli. We will generally eat breakfast in our room as we are staying at BLT. While I am a fan of breakfast we all tend to move at different speeds in the morning. So, our goal is to get to the parks reasonably early rather than try for early ADRs. And, at least at this time we are planning to do this OOP .

ARRIVAL (early to mid afternoon)
Dinner – 6:00pm @ Chef Mickey’s

DAY 1 (Magic Kingdom)
Lunch – 12:30pm @ Crystal Palace
Dinner – Ray’s Starlight Café (or other CS)

DAY 2 (EPCOT)
Lunch - ???
Dinner – 6:00pm @ Via Napoli

DAY 3 (Resort / Magic Kingdom)
Dinner – 7:00pm @ CRT

DAY 4 (DHS)
Lunch – 12:30 @ Sci-fi Diner

DAY 5 (AK)
No ADRs planned – CS for lunch then back to resort of other parks for dinner

DEPARTURE
Breakfast – 8:00am @ Ohana or 1900 Park Fare
(one last loop on the monorail and we’re off)

Finally, I should note that we are seriously considering adding another day to either the front of back end of our stay. We will decide this before we book ADRs. Given the limited information I have provided regarding our party please share your added suggestions for that extra day.

Definitely try Sunshine Seasons for lunch at Epcot. It's in the Land pavillion and its a counter service. It has tons of selections and the best desserts!

I think it looks good. Only suggestion I have is to not do Ohana breakfast. We did Ohana breakfast and did not love the family style skillet - it was just eggs, bacon, sausage, waffles, potatoes and biscuits and after tip it cost us $50 for just the two of us. We were a little sick we paid that much for bacon and eggs, so you are truly paying for Lilo & Stitch. We thought the breakfast buffets were a much better value (Tusker House was the best, IMO).

Sunshine definately sounds like a good option for my crew. Options=HAPPY!

I had similar thoughts when looking at the Ohana menu. Lots of good reviews for Tusker. We may have to try to try to include that one.

Thanks.
