I had all this planned many months ago, and with our trip being only 11 days away, I'm starting to make touring plans inside the parks as much as possible.
How many days should I schedule for Magic Kingdom vs. Epcot? We don't have Hoppers. I'll put my schedule at the end, to avoid glazing over with so many details!! So far, I have 2 full Epcot days, and 1 full MK day plus a half day on arrival (obviously no thrill rides due to late start) plus MNSSHP. My biggest question is: Which would the kids enjoy MORE? World Showcase doing all the kiddie things (acrobat shows, candy lady, Maelstrom, Kidcot stations) or an extra day at MK to ride the attractions?
My gut tells me to spend the time at MK because we have chunked up the time there so badly, but selfishly (LOL) we have those coveted ADR's for Le Cellier on what was to be our second day at EPCOT. (And our first EP day has Princess Storybook so we can't just do the ol' switcheroo!!)
Anyone with kids want to weigh in on what you would do in this dilemma? Do they really enjoy the WS, or not so much? MK seems to be difficult for me to make fun plans for BOTH kids, DS11 or DD4. Our first MK morning is in FantasyLand and I'd like a morning to do Tomorrowland first thing too so both kids have a chance to ride their rides w/o long lines... Thanks for any help!
p/s here's that boring itinerary I promised!!
Day 1 : 1/2 day in MK (no thrill rides due to late entry), LTT , Spectro
Day 2 : MGM, pm nap/rest break, back to MGM for dinner and Fantasmic!
Day 3 : EPCOT rides, Prncss Strybk Lunch, pm nap break, meander back to EP for a few rides and Illuminations (eating CS at hotel or EP)
Day 4 : MK, Cinderella's Royal Table for DD4/DH, pm break, Chef Mickey, Wishes
Day 5 : EPCOT World Showcase, (no idea about break, but DS18m won't nap in a stroller) Le Cellier 5:10, no fireworks tonight.
Day 6 : AK, pm nap break, Ohana's 6:30 (if perky, Wishes from Poly beach)
Day 7 : Maybe MBEMH @ MK, leave by 11 to rest for MNSSHP later tonight, LATE NIGHT
Day 8 : Sleep in after late night, big breakfast at Kona Cafe, ????, leave for airport at 3:00
