I am think I have a plan for our MK days, but need some confirmation as to if the timing will work. It is a day with evening EMH(the other day we have planned is MVMCP) so this is the only chance of evening activities.

I planned to do a pre rope drop ADR at Crystal Palace. The earliest ADR I could get was currently was 910(still looking for 8am). IfI can't move this, will they let me early with that time so I don't get caught in the RD masses? I was thinking we could get there b/t 815 and 830.

We were planning on touring the park till around 1 or 2(we will see the afternoon parade our 2nd MK day) and then returning to our resort till 5 or 6 at which time I was hoping to head to Chef Mickey or 1900 park fare dinner ADR. I current don't have the dinner ADR I want either(best I could get currently is 8). If I can get a time slot that works, does this plan sound doable? We should be able to watch the parade and wishes from somewhere near the train station and then hop on the train to miss the crowd leaving and head to fantasy land?

1. I don't know, sorry.

2. There's nothing wrong with your timing. If the family is okay with it, there's no reason this won't work.

3. I doubt the train will still be running. You will have to be the salmon swimming upstream. It's not that hard in my opinion.
 
I think they will let you in early. I'm pretty sure we've done a meal right at RD and got in early. (Plus disney recommends being at least 15 min early for your reservation, so I can't imagine them not letting you in)
 
Also, the train always closes before the first nighttime parade. I'm pretty sure the parade has to cross the tracks in frontier land. They don't re-open it usually after the evening parades even if it's a late night.
 

That is good to know about the train. With 3 small kids(and a double stoller), not sure I want to fight the exiting crowd. How long does it take the crowd to clear, maybe I could just wait it out. But I guess that would kind of defeatt he purpose of rides with short lines huh?
