How do these ADR's sound?

I have all the ADR's for our trip set. We are upgrading to deluxe dining, as it will be only DH and me, and we pan on a leisurely trip with a lot of time eating! And DxDP is a LOT of eating!!
day 1. arrive at CSR about 1 or 2 pm, head over to MK. have lunch w/o and ADR (either Tony's or the Plaza). If we can't get in, we will eat a CS lunch. Dinner ADR at HDDR at 9:30 (cat 1)
day 2. WCC at 12:00 noon, Kona Cafe at 5pm
day 3. Chefs De France at 1:30pm, Yachtsman SH at 8:30pm
day 4. Mama Melrose at 12:50 pm, Tutto Italia at 8:05 pm
day 5. Coral Reef at 1:10 pm

on day 3 we will probably have a breakfast at Maya Grill at the resort, or maybe a CS in a park.
 
The only problem I see is that on day 2, you have WCC at noon and then Kona Cafe at 5 pm and I'm wondering if you'll be hungry at 5. Other than that - looks good to me.
 
I agree with a 5 pm dinner reservation being a little too close to a 12 pm lunch, but you know your family's eating habits better than I do, of course!

I agree. I wouldn't be hungry this quickly...and I'd want to be hungry if I was going to Kona.
 

I have been a little worried about that too. But, I want to be out of Kona in plenty of time to get a good spot for Spectro and Wishes, as this is the only night of our trip that they are scheduled. And I tried for WCC at 11:00 am, but 12:00 was as early as I could get it that day. I will keep trying to get an earlier lunch time. I am a little worried that with the DxDP we will be basically running from ADR to ADR, but this is our chance to try it on the cheap, and maybe it will work out well. If it does, it will be hard to go back to a trip w/o it, which is probably Disney's master plan!! Thanks!!
 
If it were me, I'd make an ADR for day 1 at around 4. That would give you time to get checked in. If you were early or late you would still stand a very good chance of being seated since you had an ADR. Then you wouldn't have to worry about walking up. (BUT - we always go during peak crowd times, so we've never been able to walk up anywhere.)
