How does this plan look

[hockey mom 94]

We arrive afternoon on a tues, 3/18 so figured we would utilize the hotel benefits (pool etc) and maybe hit downtown Disney. Wednesday MGM, H&V for character lunch RS 12:30 Then back to relax in hotel for a while. Hit a parade or evening attraction in pm. Thursday Animal Kingdom 8:30am RS for donald breakfast spend day until mid afternoon, hit hotel to rest and evening event later. Friday Magic Kingdom need to make reservations for Crystal Palace Lunch or Breakfast, same thing do this park til mid afternoon then rest at hotel, this evening DH and I may hit pleasure island and take advantage that the grandparents are joining this trip. Saturday Epcot with RS for lunch at Garden Grille 12:40. We still need to decide on evenings whenever the March schedule is released. We are traveling with our two boys 4 and 8 and my parents. Anything you see that doesn't look good please share with me since I have time to change things. ie crowds, etc.

Thanks

I think the plan looks good. Make sure you get to the parks a little before opening.

We hit the parks early in the morning and then take a break after lunch. And then go to a park in the evening.

Have a magical trip!

Hi! The plan looks great to me!!!!

We enjoy Epcot in the evenings, but make sure not to miss Spectromagic at MK and Fantasmic at MGM- that should give you lots of night options.

My best tip is to get to the parks early- since it is peak season I would ARRIVE 50-60 minutes before park opening. The lunches sound good. Donald's for breakfast is great!

This plan has worked great for us (even on busy days) in AK-
dinoland first!
Perfect since you will be right there!
triceratops spin
primeval whirl
dinosaur
boneyard-give kids 10-15 minute limit or you will never get out of here-same goes for all "play" areas in the parks. Our son knows he has a time limit ahead of tme, so no arguments. Actually, if everyone does not want to ride "dinosaur", one adult can stay with the kids in the boneyard and meet there after riding dinosaur- we do this on every "grandparent" trip.

If you head straight out of Dinoland you will run right into Tough to Be A Bug. Exit left from there and ride Kali River Rapids. Then go to Safari and get a FP if the wait is more than 20 minutes.


Epcot has some great things for the kids in the am- Spaceship Earth, Living Seas, Circle of Life, Food Rocks, Ice Station Cool,, Honey I Shrunk the Audience, Jouney into Imagination.

Our usual daily plan sounds a lot like yours and it hasn't failed in the last six trips, so I think you will do great!

We....
get to the parks EARLY- or an early character breakfast
hit all our favorite rides
eat lunch
LEAVE
pool/rest
back to parks around 5
more rides (parks are clearing out)
eat dinner
see a parade/fireworks

We rarely eat more than one sit-down meal a day- or you will feel like you are constantly rushing to a PS!

Have fun!!!!!!!!!
