Help Needed

[shannn]

So, here's my dilemma. We are going to be at DW in October for 4 nights 5 days. We have park hoppers (which we've never had before) so I'm open for ideas. We went to CRT last time for lunch and my family says that's a definite. They also said the same for Ohana. Everything else is new to us. We usually have breakfast in the concierge lounge and we'll have 2 kids along (8 and 5). They're very used to restaurants and well behaved. These are the meals we have to eat:

Tues Lunch (we arrive. I was thinking Kona since we're staying at the Poly, but we could go to a park and have a later lunch)
Tues Dinner
Wed Lunch
Wed Dinner
Thurs Lunch
Thurs Dinner
Fri Lunch
Fri Dinner
Sat Lunch (I was kind of thinking CRT as our final meal, but I could do something else.)

We have 12 credits on the DXDP and I was thinking these restaurants:
Kona 1
Ohana 1 (loved it last time)
Plaza 1
Le Cellier 1
50s PT 1
Chef Mickey's 1
Cali Grill 2
CRT 2 (loved it last time)
Brown Derby 2 (Maybe? With the Fantasmic package?)

The problem is that I can't make them fit and come up with a touring plan. Any ideas??

I didn't spend a whole lot of time on this but just looking at it this is what I might try to start off with.

Tuesday- check in and have lunch at Kona Cafe & go to Magic Kingdom.
Catch the monorail and go to Chef Mickeys. Return to MK for Wishes.

Wednesday- Start your day at Epcot & have lunch at LeCellier.
Later in the day go back to your resort & chill and get ready for dinner at the Brown Derby and spend the rest of the night at HS.

Thursday- Is the Plaza at MK? You could go to Animal Kingdom early and then go to the Plaza at MK for a late lunch??? Then go to 'Ohana for a late dinner. (you could watch wishes from the beach)

Friday- Have lunch at 50's Prime Time Cafe and then dinner at California Grill. You could even catch Wishes from there.

Saturday-I like your idea of having lunch at CRT on this day. What a way to end your trip.

If you are wanting to catch Illuminations, catch the Monorail to Epcot for that one night after dinner.
