First time back to WDW w the family in 8 years when son was 12, I was there for 1 day when I was on a short Orlando biz trip. Last time we stayed at POFQ, but now w grown son AND his 18 year old gf, we need much more room so decided on Wyndham Bonnet Creek , got a 2 BR 2 1/2 Deluxe condo for less than 200 /night (we had stayed in the same kind of Wyndham condo at Busch Gardens, Va and LOVED IT). I probably have about 20 hours of planning into it, lol, as I probably should have used a Travel Agent, but being the OCD trip planner I am, went ahead and did everything myself, Airfare, Resort, Tickets, Magic Bands, Mydis App on phone, Fast passes and dinner reservations. Some of the harder choices were:
1- the 3rd Fast Pass for MK came down between RnRCoaster and 7 DwarfsMT. I ultimately went w RnR as 7 Dwarfes seemed like ride for younger kids. I considered using it there and doing singles for RnRCoaster, but utlimately did not. Dinner Reservations , most at Epcot, also some hard decisions, went with France, Mexico, Saana at AK Villas, and Rose & Crown (almost went back to German Beer Hall Buffet).
Anyway, here's my waaay overplanned itinerary if anyone has comments or suggestions:
